Don't worry Hillary is busy keeping New York safe from Cockfighting.

You mean she finally had Bill surgicaly fixed down there!

PS.....LOCATIONS WHERE ANTHRAX FOUND: (AP)

American Media Inc., Boca Raton, Fla., on keyboard of man who died and in mail room.

U.S. Postal Service facility, Boca Raton, Fla.

NBC, New York City, on letter postmarked Sept. 16, Trenton, N.J.

Daschle's office, on letter postmarked Oct. 8, Trenton, N.J.

Microsoft Licensing Inc., Reno, Nev., in a company envelope mailed to a vendor in Malaysia that was returned to Microsoft Licensing when the Malaysian vendor could not be located.

Now wait a minute, there's no abortion clinics listed here! Could this just be their pro-death propaganda or what?
Why have the abortion clinics become big news?
They've had anthrax letters since 1998!

Let's get the order of succession right. Speaker of the House automatically becomes President if, and only if, the President and VP are both rendered unable to serve at the same time.

If the President dies or is otherwise unable to serve, the VP becomes President and selects a new VP. His choice, although subject to approval of both houses.

If the VP dies or is otherwise unable to serve, the President selects a new VP, his choice, subject to approval of both houses.

This is the reason Bush and Cheney are now kept in separate locations at all times, although the press simply refuses to understand it. It's to avoid the possibility of having a President and Vice President that NOBODY voted for placed into office during a time of national crisis.

Anyway, assasinating the Speaker would be a meaningless gesture, as the House would simply elect a new Speaker post-haste. And they've already targeted the Senate Majority Leader, who's not in the line of succession (President Pro-Tempore of the Senate is).

I think we should send in some military might of that caliber into Iraq -- after we bomb them to molecular components.

And what would be the point of sending anyone in after...
Never mind.

ROTFLOL!

Unfortunately, comedy may become reality within a week.......

The enormity of this change in the type of antrax deployed (weapon grade) has not been realized yet by the masses of sheeple.....When the first mass release occurs and tens of thousands are dying, people will be screaming for the nuclear option......

God help us all! My fortune cookie the other day stated "May you live in interesting times"

This is just a little too interesting for my liking.....

#31 is great!!

[Jefferson Adams]

My proposal -

1) warn them that if the anthrax, hijackings, and other nonsense doesn't stop, their most precious holy site - Mecca - is literally toast

2) if it doesn't stop, drop the bomb on Medina (holy site #2) and warn them that Mecca is next

3) if it still doesn't stop, DO IT

Short of killing ALL of them (which will never happen) THAT is what will work.

FNC is reporting anthrax found in Pataki's office.

VRWC my arse.

[hellinahandcart]

Pataki's going to speak in about fifteen minutes.

Damn these people.

[imperator2]

Why does the president fly to China when there is a war on? and why don't we have detention camps to accomodate all Arabs in America NOW?

[TLBSHOW]

You are lucky. Only a few miles from the action.

BUMP

[Trident/Delta]

"May you live in interesting times"

Just for the record... that is an ancient Chinese CURSE.

Semper Fi

[Publius6961]

The President left to fly to China early this am ...they are probably filling him in at this moment.

Our president is about to land at a local Air Force Base in our neighborhood, Sacramento, California, on his way to the orient.
9 am, PDT

CNN just reported that a congressional aide stated that this report was an over-reaction and there was no anthrax in any place other that Daschle's office.

[PBRSTREETGANG]

No doubt that was minor surgery.

[NY.SS-Bar9]

Have you been given decontamination info, and if you have, can you share it with all here?

If I were you, I would go to the nearest mall, buy a new outfit, rent a hotel room, put your clothes in a plastic bag, shower, change, and call in sick.

[concerned about politics]

No doubt that was minor surgery.

microscopic surgery. He just talked big.

[Yellow Rose of Texas]

FOX News now saying the Anthrax in the vents is a rumor, no anthrax in the tunnels, I still suggest ya'll get yourselves tested. Please take care of yourselves!

[concerned about politics]

Who's right? FOX or CNN?

[VRWC_minion]

Never heard of them, honest.
