If al-Queda thinks a massive attack on our homeland will help the socialists like it did in Spain, then they have committed the mother of all blunders.

Problem is, we can’t get them all.
Time to clean the guns and polish the bayonets.
It may be a rough weekend.

The Liberal Media (redundant, I know) will be screaming about how this is just to scare voters right before the election ... /sarc

They’d be right. And the thought of a “regime change” after an attack will make some vote for “no change”.

Well, this must be a false report. Everyone knows the world loves us more with each and every passing day of Obama’s illustrious rule.

He is “The One” after all.

Maybe widespread awareness will make it easier to catch up with any devices already out there?

UPS offices in London just reported via Fox that there were no suspicious packages and/or bombs found on any planes there.

It sounds like the key word in all of this may be “suspicious”, but there are in fact at least 3 UPS aircraft being searched on the tarmac in the US.

Could this be a distraction?

Local and federal authorities are investigating a suspicious package aboard a UPS plane that landed at Philadelphia International Airport at about 9 a.m. from Paris, France. The second plane, from Cologne, Germany, was isolated near the UPS terminal. The plane from Germany landed in Philadelphia at about 8 a.m. and was scheduled to depart at 10:30 a.m. for Louisville, Kentucky. At about the same, a third plane landed safely at Newark International Airport and was isolated.
