In my opinion it's a liberal attempt to get a political hit on Rebublicans while the Dem's ship is sinking fast.

Lets just say that in the 80's we still secretly kept certain weapons in our arsenal the liberals tried to stop, but Clinton may have ordered them destroyed.

Let's direct our emotions not to fear -- but anger! It's a much more positive emotion right now.

I hope we HAVE neutron weapons to use if necessary. Can anyone comment on whether our arsenal might include them?

I agree. If we can link the Anthrax attacks to a specific country, we should NUKE... no question. This is the only 'language' the bio-terrorists (and terrorist supporting countries) may understand.

If the letters from NJ were postmarked September 18th, why are we just now hearing about them? It's almost a month later and NBC News and Senator Daschle's office are just *now* getting around to opening them? Or have they been open and sitting around for weeks? Or is the post office lying about how early these were sent?

And that's not ALL the questions I have. Why Sen. Daschle but not the White House? Why Not Sec. Powell or Sec. Rumsfeld? Why Gov. Pataki but not Mayor Giuliani? Why Gov. Pataki but not Sen. Clinton?

And how can a 7-month old crumb cruncher get Anthrax on a visit (allegedly) to ABC but nobody else was exposed? Not even the letter openers and office assistants?

Finally, how could someone pour lethal toxic amounts of Anthrax into ordinary envelopes and send them off through the mail without exposing himself to the bacteria? If breathing the stuff is dangerous, how did he get them in the envelopes, seal them, possibly address them and then carry them out without infecting himself? Should we not be checking hospitals in New Jersey to see if there are any "swarthy-looking males" with flu-like symptoms?

Some things here aren't adding up and I'd like some answers.

It is quite likely the sender of the anthrax letters has been vaccinated.

As to Rush's proposed Iraqi connection. I think Saddam Hussein understands very well that an Iraqi sponsored biological weapons attack on the U.S. would be the end of his regime, most likely in a hail of fuel-air weapons, though possibly with nukes thrown in.

On the other hand, there are almost certainly elements in the Iraqi establishment who are more sympathetic to al Qaeda's brand of Islam than to the secularism of the Baathist movement. Rogue Islamists in Iraq would fit with

The Islamists would even welcome an American attack on Iraq (and particularly one on shaky evidence) as it would bolster their propaganda campaign with the Muslim masses, and would remove a strong secularist Arab government all in one stroke.

IT IS NOW TIME TO PRAY FOR INNOCENT VICTIMS FIRST AND THEN UNLOAD OUR FULL ARSENAL ON THESE COUNTRIES (and we know who they are) INCLUDING NUCLEAR WEAPONS. IF WE DON'T, THEN WE WILL OBVIOUSLY SEE MORE AND MORE ATTEMPTS ON AMERICAN (Christian and Jewish) LIVES. IF YOU AGREE JUST POST A "GOD BLESS AMERICA, GOD HAVE MERCY ON OUR ENEMY" JM

Says it's probably Iraq

Has he heard something we havent? i doubt it.

And a neutron bomb? makes sense, gallup shows mentioning neutron bombs is a lot better for ratings and ad dollars than other foreign policy options. All you armchair strategist get that right before going on TB ok?

In my opinion it's a liberal attempt to get a political hit on Rebublicans while the Dem's ship is sinking fast.

As well as demonizing the so called militia groups and anyone associated with preserving our 2nd Amendment rights.

My take on all this anthrax stuff is it is being perpetrated by knowledgable environmentalist wacos working in a lab dealing with anthrax experiments. They have the ability, the clearance and the network to send this stuff out..... Just an opinion

I would not be against deployment of the neutron bomb but remember the attacks have come from people that are already here in country. To eleminate the problem in country we must first remove the one million mid-east types that are here legally on a visa. The country is not serious about stopping these threats until this is done.

I appreciate your comments and questions about the timeline and the distribution. I have a few to add:

1. If the envelopes were filled with spores, even in a glove box, the outside would be contaminated from the vent air in the box. How did the stuff get only on the INSIDE? How about postal workers with "flu like symptoms"?

2. Regarding the selfsame postal workers, they massacre mail every day. Mail, at least at gwmoore and family domicile arrives mutilated with great regularity (especially those "subversive publications" (Am. Rifleman, First Freedom, G&A, Shotgun News and other of that ilk). I have reported this to the PO in the past, and the problem apparently has been solved, because they now arrive in good shape. Other mail, however, randomly gets mutilated, evidently in the sorting or handling machines. If these dimbulbs mailed out anthrax containing envelopes to a lot of addresses, it would follow that some would be damaged, thereby creating an aerosol dispersion and the exposure of postal workers. I believe that someone reported 2 postal workers with symptoms, but I haven't heard any more

Tall_Texan, your logic is incontrivertable. Only media outlets, dims and RINO's got the envelopes. CNN jumps on the "Its the VRWC, stupid" bandwagon early and often. There is just too much new information about "right wing fanatics" appearing too fast, when the previous state was 9/11 torpid redux 24/7 with interviews from anyone the outlets could scrape up.

We have seen this before, in the last 8 years. Dimocrap talking points spread like wildfire literally instantly, following any "incident" with the WH. This has McAuliffe/Carville written all over it. The problem is WHY?

Terrorism does not have a political party. There probably were as many Democrat victims as Republican at the WTC bombing, especially among NYPD/NYFD/EMS personnel who are Democratic because they have ALWAYS been Democrat. It used to be that one's job depended on one's political affiliation, though that might have changed now. This is not to disparage the heroes of 9/11, just stating that politics didn't enter in to the act of war.

The only "winners" who stand to gain are the usual suspects themselves. Those who have tried to take America down the socialist path in the past, and will do so again. Example: Chuckie Baby was trying to abrogate Bayer's patent rights on Cipro, and have it manufactured generically. While, on the surface, this looks humanitarian, on deeper reflection it shows that the war against a free market economy and patent rights is still with us. If Bayer caves, what is the next "emergency" requiring more patent abrogation, and so forth down the slippery slope to "state factories". The other NY senator has always been a socialist and would like nothing better than this crap to spread.

I agree with your logic...why these targets and no others. Why "hoaxes" at locations who the right does not particularly support (abortion clinics). Why the fast dissemination of this story from CNN, who is nothing but a agitprop outlet for the left.

You HAVE to be close to the truth here. Thanks.

Keep the Faith for Freedom

MAY GOD BLESS AND PROTECT THIS HONORABLE REPUBLIC
