Notice how they don't hesitate to put the person's nationality when he's from Iraq? But if he's a muslem from Somalia or somehere else they would'nt even mention that he's a foreignor.

"Probably CAIR will have some explanation for the magnet.

His prior job was holding notes to the refrigerator."

I TRIED to get a Mexican to do this for me, but it turns out there ARE Americans who WILL do that job.....

I'm wondering of they took away his giant set of tweezers and filled in the hole in his chest, too....????

That's the place I keep all my magnets. Everybody knows they are good for health. How else could I hit the ball 290 yards at my age?

"Probably CAIR will have some explanation for the magnet."

Why, our own government is constantly providing excuses and explanations for every murderous act a Muslim commits in this country.

"And with the magnet the components can be hidden in the steel toilet."

Heck, why not just attach the assembled bomb there and detonate it there. The "assembler" could just lock himself in and refuse to come out. By the time an air marshall could try to break in and subdue him, it just might be enough time to pull it off.

My husband and I travel overseas very frequently (8-10 times a year) with our business. I am 64 years old, blue-eyed, blonde hair with a Scandinavian name. Every single trip, I get pulled aside for the "big" search. I've been "patted down" so many times that I'm beginning to enjoy it. Meanwhile, the dark swarthy types sail right past me through security. This happens not only in this country, but Asia, South America, and Europe.

I'm in favor of racial profiling. Maybe they would leave me alone then.
