Obama: Packages had explosives
Politico44 ^ | 10/29/10 | MATT NEGRIN & ABBY PHILLIP

Posted on 10/29/2010 2:14:25 PM PDT by ColdOne

The packages found on U.S.-bound airplanes contained explosives and were intended to hit “two places of Jewish worship in Chicago,” President Obama announced Friday.

The packages originated in Yemen and were identified in Dubai and London, he said, calling it a “credible terrorist threat against our country.”

Could be that his religion forbids him to use the word.

Do the packages have the odor of dead fish?

Obama vowed to take “whatever steps are necessary” to protect Americans, and he told them that officials aren’t “wavering in our resolve” to fight extremism.”

Oh for cryin out loud. He can’t even call it terrorism I guess that might portray some Muslims as being terrorists. Nah, there just a little extreme in their beliefs.

I thought the packages (toner cartridges) intercepted this morning from Yemen were harmless? Also, why the F-15’s shadowing a passenger jet?

Naw, it just makes for a more dramatic story and adds proof that he is in control of the situtation.

Makes me wonder what Obammy has to do with all of this.

well, "Obama vowed to take “whatever steps are necessary” to protect Americans, "

So, if one gets through - and does or does not go off - MARTIAL LAW - no elections and Congress and the Senate are locked in a closet for 6 months unable to do or say anything.

Great way to put a lock on the coup...and I suspect that even the Progressives - aka Socialists - would learn they've been had - Stock on on Burkas and make a fortune.

I’m gonna have to call BS on this one. Friday afternoon before the election. Regarding: War on (nearly) Human-Caused Disasters, Omullah gets an “F”.

I believe you are correct.

On another thread it was noted that 'terror alert level' remains at Yellow. If there is an actual terror threat, why is the 'terror alert level' still at Yellow?

If Obama said this, I don’t believe him.

He has never told the truth.

This is a desperate act on his part before elections.

After listeneing to the video this guy is in full campaign mode. Sounds very preisidental and determined, I think unwavering is one of the terms he used and he also mentioned the T word several times which is a huge departure for him. And he referred to the Brits as our friends (or maybe he just meant Yemen) which had to really stick in his craw.

This whole thing stinks to high heaven and is nothing more than a politcal football.

My fellow Americans: Today my crackerjack Department of Homeland Security intercepted two thingies with dangerous, unregistered explosive devices. It really doesn't matter because, as you know, America can afford to take several of these attacks. The packages came from a country whose religion is unimportant. For all we know some teabaggers went there to mail these things. If we ever catch the perpetrators we will not imprison them in Guantanamo and will put them on trial in New York City, unless they are teabaggers in which case they will be sent to Guantanamo for waterboarding.

But what I really want to talk to you about today is the need for us to come together and make sure there is no backlash against Muslims in America because of this incident even though I won't tell you Muslims sent the devices . . . .
