Just a vain attempt to go out in a blaze of glory?

And instead of 'blaze of glory,' all he got was 'blades all gory...'

Well, your query reminds me of the age old question ... what is the last thing to go through a bugs mind as he splats against the windshield of your car ...........

Been searching this thread to see if any body besides my wife heard Brit Hume report this kid is an Arab. Syrian. Family changed real name Bashiri, to Bishop?

Hope this helps.

Interesting.

That bothers me, too. I remember an incident where Hubby and a friend overflew a naval base in Virginia, in a gas company helicopter...and you can BETCHA there were fighter jets escorting them our of the airspace IMMEDIATELY. That was years BEFORE 9-11. You'd think that military base security would INCREASE rather than DECREASE since 9-11.

Option 1 is the plane was deliberately ignored for whatever reason on whoever's orders. Option 2 is the US military is so overextended betweenbudget cuts, corruption and various undeclared wars they can't do all that much at home.

Whatever happened to those NATO AWACS crews securing the "East Coast"?

You guys may want to look at my posts from last week where I suggested that The Little American Taliban Boy that crashed his plane into the Tampa skyscraper was a conservative. Each of you went to great extent to claim I was just trying to cause trouble or that Mr. Bishop was a liberal Democrat. However, it has now been revealed that The Little American Taliban Boy was a member of the Young Republicans!

Of course I was right in my analysis of Mr. Bishop and each of you were wrong. However, I have not seen the outrage form the Fine Americans at Free Republic condemning The Little Young Republican Taliban Boy and his family. When John Walker was found with the Taliban there were hundreds of posts here condemning his liberal parents. I even, condemned the Walker boy but no one here is willing to link Mr. Bishop's actions with his being a Young Republican.

Such hypocrisy!

No. John Walker joined Al-Qaeda and fought against his own country. Charles Bishop joined no terrorist group... no Islamist terrorist tracts in his room... no there is indeed no indication that he was anything besides a fatherless boy with a family history of suicide attempts (it does mention that BOTH his parents attempted to commit suicide before his birth), who himself tragically committed suicide. Guess you'll see what you want to see.

I barely caught a fleeting comment on local Tampa radio that said some young man a few blocks away caught the actual crash into the building on videotape. Can anyone verify this?

I have half a hunch that the suicide note and the crash tape may soon be released now that the kid's funeral is over.

And we know nothing of his parent's political leanings...

Yes, but we do know Mr. Bishops's political leanings and he was a member of the Young Republicans.

No don't you think if he were a Young Democrat that the members of FR would be making a connection between the two?

All I said was that Tampa is represented by a Democrat.

Tampa may be liberal but The Young Republican Suicide Taliban Pilot lived in Palm Harbor, Florida and was proud of his membership in the Young Republicans. Now, I ask again. Where is the outrage? When it was announced that Mr. Johnny Taliban Walker was from Marin County, many conservatives blamed his liberal parents. Now that it is known that The Taliban Suicide Pilot was a Young Republican no one here beside myself seems to want to make the connection.

My outrage lies within Homeland Security for brushing every single thing off it seems as not terrorist related when an investigation has not even begun.
