"Maybe it worked just the way they intended."

Mebbe so, if the intent was to blame us "teabaggers" for something else we didn't do...

I guess that gets the right wing Tea Party people off the hook (lame stream media hyping it possible could have been) -

It is the perfect setup. They say it had to be the right wing because they are too stupid to build a good bomb.

If you do lean the right in your political leanings, and you want to refute this you have two options...

Option 1. Say, no We definitely are smart enough to build a good bomb and kill lots of people. And you feed into their violent rightwing extremist mantra. And, they get to insinuate you're planning someting like this.

Option 2. Say nothing and and accept the crack that you're stupid.

PMSNBC believs they've won either way. According to a November 2008 poll, there's at least 52% of the idiot voting public that would believe it.

We have to look beyond the obvious with this.

I'm looking at the past two weeks in America regarding immigration, and the call for violence from the Sharptons of the world. I guarantee no one is looking at that angle since the knee jerk reaction is to think AQ/Taliban. Then of course, the taliban accepts responsibility.

Its the perfect cover for someone else.

We've been lucky twice...the panty bomber and then this. Taliban makes sense...Osama...structure and financial damage.

Makes sabotage of the oil rig even more plausible.

Seriously?

They said that,

MY mind was thinking the timing of the event pointed to it possibly being some one tied to the protesters of yesterday, that would be the logical conclusion.

“I’m betting on MS 13. “

You may not be far off in that reasoning...perhaps not this NY incident, but they’re finding IED’s in Mexico. It’s just a matter of time until they get here.

MS 13 is joining up with the Zetas, the last we heard.

Mexican Cartels Using IEDs
KRGV ^ | 04/09/2010

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/2489897/posts

[snip]AUSTIN - The Mexican military seized improvised explosive devices just miles from the Valley. The IEDs (or roadside bombs) are the same weapons terrorists use in the Middle East.

The homemade explosives can be sophisticated or crude. They’re often deadly. They’ve killed troops in Iraq and Afghanistan.

CHANNEL 5 NEWS learned the weapons are also in the hands of the drug cartels in Mexico.

On March 30, more than 50 cartel members attacked the Mexican military in Matamoros and Reynosa. Eighteen people died.

Soldiers seized 50 rifles, 60 hand grenades, and eight IEDs.

Exactly. A classic case of Occam’s Razor for sure.

Probably feverishly looking for video “evidence” right now. There must have been some “suspicious” old ladies milling about in Times Square. LOL.

No kidding.

It is funny thought that at least one faithful band of leftists would be willing to come out and spin some crazy horseh$t against the "evil right wing."

I think it was lost on them when Michael Moore wondered why AQ hit Manhattan; Manhattanites supported them. I wonder if MM really believes it when AQ sends them an "it's not you, it's me" message in a green Suzuki?

An alliance between MS 13, AQ and the Taliban would NOT surprise me in the least.

On live coverage this morning, 8:13 a.m.
MSNBC "terrorism analyst" Evan Coleman was beside himself with the crudeness of the NYC bomb. He seems disgusted that this bomb doesn't meet the high degree of craftsmanship of the iraqi bombs.

Essentially, all the good bomb makers use cell phones and some sort of military explosives. This bomb had neither. He sounded half taunting and half disappointed that this thing didn't kill people.

So, he concluded, that this has to be the work of some sort of "right-wing group." The heroes would have gotten this right.

That's the narrative on MSNBC right now - Muslims make better bombs, the crappy ones come from right wingers.

Want to eat yor words now MSNBC news-BOY?

Seems pretty coincidental that it happens at the very moment that Obama is under pressure for this oil slick.

MSNBC said because of the amatuer nature of the bomb, it probably was a right wing extremist that was responsible.

Probably some tea party granny ... who, when not making bombs is a pillar of the community.
