Meanwhile he's successfully sent a large chunk of FR into a tizzy.

Probably his purpose.

My first thought when reading about these thousands of bodies hanging in the trees and being removed in groups of 30 was how bizarre and unlikely this was. Death on this scale would have the MSM swarming the area in copters and planes to bring us all the grizzly footage. And given the numbers of rescuers required and the communications and logistics involved in such efforts, there is no way it could be kept silent.

Thousands of people hanging from trees? I think it would be more believable if the claim was that all the victims were blacks living in a Red state and were lynched by the local KKK who were merely following Cheney's Secret Orders.

You would think so, but this is not always the case. A similar thing occurred after the Great Earthquake of 2004 where areas were too devastated to be able to tell anyone how much damage they sustained. Remember how long it took to get accurate information from the Aceh area?

You have a good point, but sadly, there is another possible explanation. Currently, there is no press in these areas. I have yet to see a single first-hand report from coastal Mississippi. I can understand that they would be reluctant to report rumors like this, but without working phones or press access, rumors like this are all you would have if the story was true.

It's quite possible we've had thousands killed; it's also quite possible that people will exaggerate now. We'll start to know the truth soon enough.
