But since our leader has decided to go to China for a few days, it's unlikely he has chosen to fight I am so mad right now, I could scream. I am mind boggled at the way we are handling this. They have "experts" all over the TV telling us how to react if we think we are exposed! As if now we are supposed to act like being exposed to a weapon of mass destruction is just one of many new dangers facing us now in this new world since September 11th...this is insane.
They aren´t going to be mailing this crap out anymore. My god who is runnung the show over there? If we keep just reacting to their actions we are all going to be dead...They must have enough of this stuff that they considered flying with a crop duster. How are they going to spin it when 5 million people in a handful of big cities or towns are all diagnosed? How are people going to decontamiate themselves then? How far are your two million 60 day doses going to go then? What good are they going to be when it´s too late for those people that have unknowingly been exposed?
Bush should be in a war-room right now-giving the order. Not on some junket to those Chicom bastards who are probably behind this in some manner anyway.

Probably thought the cunning Al Quaeda had inserted a pair of Pammy Anderson's knickers in it.

Anyway, people have always liked to make fun of those in authority--government leaders, the clergy, et al. I love to. I'm just like everybody else.

I thought this was supposed to be the work of "right wingers"...any more word on that front?

I think the President ought to make just that very threat. Whether or not Iraq or Sudan or whomever did it (manufacture the weapons grade anthrax, and my personal favorite is Iraq) is really not the point.
They can certainly call off those who have started this, and Bush ought to warn them to do so, publically and expect them to hand over Bin Ladin dead or alive, or Baghdad is toast. The rest of the world's protestations are not important. US security is.

Lieberman, who has not tested positive for anthrax exposure, said during a CNN interview on Wednesday that his taking the antibiotic ``is probably unnecessary, but why not?'' Why not? Well PROBABLY because the side effects of Ciprio can give you soem MAJOR side effects.....dumbass! I'm so glad this mental midget is NOT our VEEP. Bulldog OUT
To: winodog
Hmmm Lieberman and 200 others on capitol hill are taking cipro "because why not" but the ruling elite will not allow the people to get some in case they need it later.Cipro's not the only thing you can take for this! One expert on tv last night said he doesn't know why they keep talking about cipro, because doxicyline is maybe even better, according to him. And we have LOTS of doxicyline...

FOX is now reporting 29 people, including 2 Capitol Police officers . . . "weapons grade Anthrax"- which means only one thing, because only a government/nation could be behind weapons grade Anthrax . . . This looks like probably IRAQ
, though who knows, but as I was concerned and mentioned in a previous post regarding that fly Gloria and the Workers World Pary idiots, myself and others see a definite thread from Iraq to (Castro) Cuba to Florida . . . this could be a possible route . . .
To: cpdiii; riri
Thanks for your sensible post. (I spelled doxycycline wrong I see!) But Cipro's not the only drug for this, as you point out.
To: riri
Bush should be in a war-room right now-giving the order. Not on some junket to those Chicom bastards who are probably behind this in some manner anywayI'd hate to see how you react to a real threat. Ease up, this is not the satan bug.

Expect the people who are doing this to be dead soon. Unless they are in full biohazard gear when they post the envelopes(a dead giveaway I presume) odds are they are getting a dose themselves. I'd check New Jersey health providers for middle eastern sickies.

It is 29 exposures. The 200 taking cipro are for good reason.
Reports are coming that the Capitol will be shut down until [atleast] Tuesday. Traces of anthrax are said to be in the tunnels of the Capitol. (Gallagher on radio, now).
Gird up!

...for some reason the government is NOT saying where.Last week, press reports mentioned a "lab in Iowa", whatever that means.
To: Brian_Baldwin
Just responding to my own remark, this latest Anthrax attack, with 29 individuals of the Senate and staff effected, has me really, really upset - of course the first thing I thought in my mind was a message to God, please help everyone and protect our government . . . this attack is the second, and almost worse, act of war against us and the US Congress needs to vote a declaration of formal war on any nation found linked to it . . . I pray for Daschle and other staffers, and for our government, and pray for such a response to these cultist freaks of the world that now seem to control Islamic governments and the terrorist governments of Iraq et all . . . we are in World War whether we want to admit it or not . . . we can find allies in Russia and India in this World War against Islamic terrorist GOVERNMENTS (and, this involves their governments, not just their mullahs and terrorist "cells" - their governments are the terrorist cells, understand? They got to go, Hezbollah, et all, and we got to put down and shame that CNN Hezbollah freak "Pour" or whatever her name is and her Hezbollah Clinton-flunky husband) . ..

the Capitol will be shut down until [atleast] Tuesday.Look on the bright side. Taxes won't increase and any more of our liberties won't be taken away for almost a week.

Probably thought the cunning Al Quaeda had inserted a pair of Pammy Anderson's knickers in it.Actually, I think they thought it was their new cocaine sample. Hey, try this, it will take you somewhere you've never been before.
To: JohnHuang2
John......
Two things come to mind...
Daschle will not be jumping ship on the war effort right away.
> Also Lieberman is going against all presciption for the unwashed by taking Cipro. He is always running his socialist mouth about the little people, the ones no one cares about. Want to bet he went to the Senate medical staff, for free, and got the Cipro for free. Damned hyprocrite....

Health and Human Services Secretary Tommy Thompson said of the anthrax scare: ``There's no question that right now we are in a period of the unknown.''Thompson made his public remarks just before donning a tall floppy hat and leaving to drive around the National Mall in a little red toy truck, honking a bulb horn wildly while the U.S. Marine Corps band played the theme from the Bozo show.

"Daschle will not be jumping ship on the war effort right away" - cynicom . . .
I'm not so sure about that . . . I find this the second, perhaps worse, act of war against our nation, and being that weapons grade Antrax (as it is now being reported) generally only can come from a government or nation, this attack upon Senate staffers is an act of war, something I believer that Daschle will support 100 percent.
