I remember the administration saying he was a ‘lone nut’ or some such.

My immediate reaction was “A lone nut who can put together a complex bomb, so complex that he cannot, in fact, set it off himself? A lone nut so nutty that he can construct a bomb that he doesn't know how to detonate?”

Now it comes out that he did indeed have co-conspirators.

No duh!

“I remember the administration saying he was a ‘lone nut’ or some such.”

Your memory is perfect.

I remember the administration saying he was a ‘lone nut’ or some such.

I distinctly remember hearing that he was one of those tea-party crazies, upset about Our Leader's splendid plan for National Health Care.

I thought thats all that was left.

Oh yes the "lone ..." and they always "self radicalize" as well.

We are always supposed to believe that there is never, ever anyone involved and the "accused never showed any signs of being dangerous" and "friends, neighbors, teachers, fellow students, family members never believed that they were dangerous," even during the Bush Administration yet "sources say that there are 'sleeper cells' in the U.S."

The only "potentially dangerous" people in America are either returning vets, gun advocates, white conservatives and now TEA Party folk!
