John Gibson just reported an explosion occured in Yale's mail room. The floor has collapsed. Developing...

At the moment I'll bet that the bomber is one of the students.

[Ramius]

Oh wow, if they have kids, they are going to be so beautiful.

[sigh] yes, but they aren't returning my calls. :-(

ATF agents

That would be BATFE agents. The "E" was added when the agency tranferred to Justice Department as part of the Homeland Security reorg. They hated it when you used their four letter designator, and I imagine they hate it even more now that it's a Five letter designator. (In most bureaucratic pecking orders, fewer letters are better.) They are particularly jealous of the FBI.

[El Gato]

I bet you most law students have gone home by now.

I suspect you are right. I'll bet the folks using room 120 or whatever it was, are glad that their final finished when it did, and not an hour later. Of course one of them would be a prime suspect for having planted the thing in the first place.

[Focault's Pendulum]

Then YOU'RE the one stealing the other boys' dates?! Shame on you!

I should feel guilty...but it's hard when they all want to give you their sugar.

Who am I kidding..I'm sitting here drinking weak tea with lemon.

[Imperialist]

yeah, yeah, you are right, but not in a campus mail room. Biggest package is probably the size of a shoebox, which is big, but would not bring down a whole floor, unless it was a N-bomb.

[NYC GOP Chick]

As I've said here earlier, islamofascists seek not only symbolism, but also high body counts, and bombing an empty law school building just doesn't cut it. If anything, "message bombings" of empty buildings is a Clinton trademark.

[NYC GOP Chick]

That sounds pretty logical.

[NYC GOP Chick]

Well, do you rip tables from the floor and intimidate college boys into letting you dance with their dates?

At least *I* drink strong Chai tea. :)

You wanna see a photo of my son age 2 with a FULL head of RED hair? ALL GONE BROWN by age 4.

*NEWS UPDATE* 9:20PM EDT... From the Fox News Channel "Crawl"...

No structural damage to building at Yale Law School... just "water damage" (I'm assuming this means broken pipes).

NEVER FORGET

NEVER FORGE

A couple of weeks ago, after Saddam had disappeared, the WMDs remained unaccounted for (note to sensitive types, Saddam has/had WMDs and I believed he moved them), and one billion dollars in cash turned up missing, I made the statement that I hoped the Secret Service had needle pucker factor control over the Bush family. This attack at Yale, where one of the twins is matriculating, could be a warning shot in what may become a very personal and bloody vendetta.

I've stated this before, Saddam Hussein and his sons may have become the most dangerous and well funded terrorists in the world.

[oceanview]

if indeed saddam has "fled" (the odds are that he did), it was done through a brokered deal with the Russians and the US. No way we just let him walk by accident. I can't believe Bush would agree to an exile deal, only to have the guy coming back trying to kill his family inside the US.

[Archangelsk]

After everything you've read about Saddam you doubt his capability to carry out his revenge?

[js1138]

just "water damage" (I'm assuming this means broken pipes).

If this turns out to be a cherry bomb in the toilet, someone's in big trouble.

[Guillermo]

they're high profile symbols of America and Americans

Exactly. They are symbols of American power and might. They do not represent either the Left or Right, nor are they supposed to. Terrorists do not differentiate between political persuasions among their targets.

[oceanview]

that would make sense if he escaped on his own, then he is capable of anything. but if a deal was made for exile with US agreement, part of that deal surely would have been guaranteed isolation. what good is a deal for exile if the guy is continuing to attack the US in some form or another.

[Guillermo]

Ok, you were being sarcastic...

Bottom line: Terrorists don't pick American or Western targets based on political persuasion.

If they did, they would target the homofascist, abortionist, passing out rubbers to children left wingers.

The ultimate irony of the "root cause" crowd is that THEY are a root cause. Just listen to what the Muslims says about American and Werstern decadence.

That happens. My daughters, and my wife for that matter, aren't nearly so "blonde" as they once were. All were "toeheads" when little, although neither of the girls so much so as my wife. She'll end up that way too, as her hair is going silver, not the gray that mine is. :)
