>> >> Fly much?
>> Read much?
>> As I said we have the final say ...
You chose not to provide additional info - perhaps because you were annoyed.
Oh, I hope security will be tightened up by then. At the very least, he should avoid Amsterdam and Delta/Northwest on his way home.
Who needs 24? We can watch all this stuff go on at the Detroit airport...LIVE!
Oh dear Lord....took a quick nap in my bedroom here after the saga of the white cat.
Must say y’all kept me calm. Husband was keeping me calm as well although he says he was kind of nervous. Sure I’ve heard stories of cats in trees but I always thought of it as the stuff of jokes.
Anyhoo....these Nigerians are really putting a cramp on the administration’s best laid plans of Christmas.
Now we are getting a news conference cause hey, can’t keep the guy away from cameras too long.
OK...watching Catherine Herridge now. Nigerian man barricaded himself in bathroom of plane.
Plane brought down in Detroit. Multiple agencies came in...most recent information is that is does appear to be a sick passenger.
I can only say one thing hand to God as I grit my teeth. THEY BETTER NOT BE LYING ABOUT THIS.
Cause if they are, if they expect us to believe yet another Nigerian locks his self into bathroom and it’s just a coincidence....
....we all need to watch this play out.
I hadn’t heard he would have a news conference.
Waiting to hear further word.
Weird reporting here.
Anchor says rumor was this Nigerian was disruptive and verbally abusive to flight crew.
Catherine Herridge says her sources did not say passenger was verbally disruptive.
Another reporter says flight personnel told her passenger WAS verbally disruptive...locked himself in bathroom for an hour.
If somebody’s lying about this it’s gonna be chaos.
bad enough it even happened bu to have our government blatently lie about it to our lying ears.
It’s just a coincidence so they say.
I say that Nigerian might not have had stuff to blow himself and plane up but it could be, I’d argue it PROBaBLY IS...maybe a test to see how tougher we’ve gotten after the last incident.
Cause these coincidences are really a bit difficult for me to buy.
But maybe it’s just me.
Oh, it’s just a “big coincidence” as reported by the Detroit reporter on Fox.
So, this sick passenger just barricaded himself in the bathroom for an hour and had to be subdued by the crew, but it was a “coincidence.”
And the “sick passenger” has been arrested, according to AP. For what?
Something is awfully fishy here.
I see you and I are on the same page.
Now Fox has gone back to reruns of O’Reilly’s Culture Quiz.
Hmmmm.
I sure am glad it’s not just me out here in la-la land hearing what I’m hearing and expected to believe this.
They are really using the word COINCIDENCE!!
Locks himself in the bathroom for an hour...says he is sick. Reports are, but maybe not, that passenger was abusive to airline personnel.
I will never believe this to be a coincidence although I’ll admit it’s mighty dumb of these terrorists to pick the exact same plane. But then they’re not known for outstanding intellect.
Or as I said upthread a bit, maybe it’s a “test” but again, how dumb to do it on same plane, so soon.
I’m thinking the guy didn’t have explosive juice on him and that is the basis on the “coincidence” statement. Cause if he had no juice then ...well he hadda just be sick, right?
Could he have somehow flushed the explosive down the commode or something?
sheesh. All I can say is they better not be lying to us...there will be hell to pay.
Agreed. I don’t think it’s a coincidence, either, but apparently that’s the best they can do to defuse the criticism.
It’s snowing here. I am going to take watch some mindless TV and maybe take a nap. This story is getting me upset.
Back later.
CNN reporting on this now.
“Detained passenger does not appear to be a threat.”
And as for the other guy Jack carries a 50 cal mag. hand gun,it shoots right through airline bathroom doors. No problem there. Same procedure as last.Shoot first ask about his welfare later.
And on 24 in the Obama Administration, Jack would be court-martialed or arrested for not being nice to terrorists, er, insurgents, er, air travelers....
Then Janet Napalatano would have a press conference all about the dangers of right-wing government agents like Jack Bauer illegally taking the law into their own hands and for proof she’ll show the world all the 24 threads on that Right-Wing site of sites, Free Republic!
>> Read much? As I said we have the final say on who is approved to fly into our country. The failure was on our end.
You chose not to provide additional info - perhaps because you were annoyed.
LOL!
You gave me a cryptic two word response? Were you annoyed?
Oh man! I so got to WATCH that episode! Brilliant!
That would all work except as to the F.Lee part (”Flea” to his friends)...”He’s dead, Jim”.
Yeah but on tv you can bring him back for at least one episode! Then he would have to die again.
The rule:Don’t mess with Jack Bauer!!
