All UPS vehicles or planes. All UPS employees other than management are part of the Teamster’s Union. Teamsters Union big time RAT supporters. RATS desperate to keep power.

Hmmm. If this was a real terror attack why just target UPS. No Fed Ex or any of the other package shipping companies. Smells fishy to me. An October surprise maybe?

Airports in some of the United States were on high alert Friday after investigators found a suspicious package aboard a plane flying from Yemen to Chicago when it stopped in London on Thursday night, a law enforcement source with detailed knowledge of the investigation said.

The suspicious package, which contained a “manipulated” toner cartridge, tested negative for explosive material, the source said, but it led to heightened inspection of arriving cargo flights in at least three cities — Newark, New Jersey and Philadelphia, Pennyslvania and a UPS truck in New York.

If they fail to stop ALL of the attempts in this case the administration will be held directly responsible after all of their “safer now than under Bush” pronouncements. Der Fuehrer will not be seen as the hero but as the enabler.

Aside from that, the cry should be “Obama knew”.

FUBO

Thanks, will not being flying UPS,of course; but will be flying to the Windy city and stopping in PA on Tuesday.

This is an ODD newstory--perhaps they need to pass a message on to the enemy our Intel is well aware [but have no specifics]; but I would rather read we stopped an attack, captured the guy[s] who has been under ongoing surveillance with undercover agents; and we were never in danger with details to follow. How many attacks or attempted attacks on Americans since Obama took office?

Worry: Our prisons, meanwhile, become taxpayer funded Islamic recruitment centers for terrorists.

Obama has already named us "the enemy" to an audience of illegals. These foreign born illegals do not vote, so why, it could be taken to suggest, it is alright to incite violence aginst Americans? Especially states bordering Mexico. According to the President, Arizona is an enemy?

UPS returns used toner cartridges for recycling at no charge to the shipper. I’ve sent them several over the past several years. Their portion of enviros green agenda.

If they are IED’s one method that would not involve a timer is to ship it without one but with a wired cell phone. The local operative would have the cell phone number and call it when it is nearing the destination.

It is all spinning down now, the union TSA fags are sniffing any white powder they can find on the planes.

The “radiological” material they will find will likely be lantern mantles or nitrogen infused assist units (on your minivan boot).

According to the President, Arizona is an enemy?

WHY would you use a question mark? Obama is an anti-American radical who will hurt America as much as he can to get power.

Against oil drilling, hurts America

Against closing the borders, hurts America

For SOCIALIZED MEDICAL TAKEOVER, hurts America

Wants to reduce America's nuclear arsenal, hurts America

Can you name ANYTHING this clown is for that HELPS America?

If I was cynical I might think that this was a put up job, planned to make 0bama look good on the eve of an important election. Good thing I’m not cynical, huh?
