Where shall we send all the children?

If I lived in that area, I'd keep them close and wouldn't entrust their care with NEA-employed communists.

Do we know the truth yet? What would you say if you were President of the United States at this point? "It might be a terrorist, run for your lives?"

Check the speech to the joint session of Congress back in September, 2001. The President was very blunt about the war as he saw it then and the dangers we would be facing.

The cover up has nothing to do with panic, it has to do with admitting that the Daschle Democrats did not bring the Homeland Security Bill to a vote, so we have no Homeland Security Task Force to handle the investigation, as well as the fact that a domestic terror attack with lend more credence to the Bush war on terrorism. Remember, the left has alot riding on, "It's the economy, Stupid." If they admitted that we have a new form of terrorism threatening us, one month before the election, it would be all over for the Democrats.

No matter where anyone lives, this is true. Bump for homeschooling!

In 1980, Reagan made a speech about the Drug war too. Have we won yet?

patriciaruth: He has been reported to be carrying a ChiCom version of the AK-74.

Demidog: And Elvis has been reported to be living in Fresno.

Common, dawg, you were ridiculing me. Let's move on and bash NEA communists instead of each other.

We haven't won the war against murderers and thieves and rapists yet either. Should we stop fighting and make it legal?

So you think that the Dems and not the Bush administration is putting the pressure on the media not to start screaming "terrorist!"

FBI agents are upset Moose is still running the investigation, and think the FBI should take over.

I would rather an incompetent Moose run it, than an incompetent FBI.

The blunt truth is, if the suspect were fair-skinned and of apparent European ethnicity, a police sketch would have been made widely available days ago.

They know more than they are telling us, at least according to the source referenced above. Also, there is a cognitive dissonance in how this sniper scenario is working itself out versus the information (and lack of info) that we are getting. I would speculate that this is worse than having them be totally frank with us as to what they think and know.

The goal is not to induce panic, but instead to perform the 'common defenses' function of the government, and do so with some alacrity, to trust us to handle the info they have. Instead we are getting 'moosed' with pictures of white vans, and trickles of disinfo that does nothing to inspire confidence. This lack of confidence in what the government knows and what they tell us is as damaging as the terrorism itself.

Please guys, if you want to argue about the drug war there's probably about a million other threads you could do it on.

One can only wish for such a thing, the dims being ridden out of town on a rail.

Right. So my defense of FR against those cretins was bad and I am still using the same tactics acccording to you but you're NOT and never have been affiliated with the anti-freepers. OK.

We don't have a war on those.

I have a theory about the sketch of the shooter/s. First, why is it taking so long? It seems Moose has been promising it for days, yet surely if the public's help is wanted, they'd get the sketch out ASAP, like they've done in every case – cases of lesser magnitude – I can recall. I mean, that's always a top priority, is't it?

Now… I think the preponderance of eyewitness descriptions is pointing to a "swarthy"- or "olive-skinned"-type male, or males. And I think Chief Moose is stalling on releasing the composite drawing because “he” (people telling him what to say) is afraid that everyone with a gun is going to target ME-appearing people. I think that they're hoping they'll capture the killer before public demands sketch, and that once perp is in custody, there won't be as much revenge taken.

They're playing both ends agains the middle, though.
