New York Subways, Dallas Office Buildings, is there enough FBI resources for multiple targets being planned?
Wonder what Obombers speechifying will accomplish!
The Dallas Target is an I.M.Pei archetecturial icon.

A very sharp caller on today’s Laura Ingraham show referred to him as “Commander-in-speech.”
Very fitting for a guy who can’t do a damn thing other than speechify.

Here is the deal. Islam teaches all believers to kill Christians and Jews (infidels). Until we eject all moslims we will suffer death and destruction.
To: unkus
But Bush will get the blame.

“Hosam Maher Husein Smadi”
Is Hussein a popular middle name for Islamic terrorists?

They all have Bush envy! He became a hero after 9-11 and they

I suspect
this contained pre-arranged wake-up signals to sleeper cells pre-positioned in the U.S.
