I'll bet they are having to tell him something more than "It would be inappropriate for us to discuss that with you at this time." LOL; Oh, I'm sure about that. BTW, he was looking very worried last week in his pics, many noticed. Yes, some or a lot probably has to do with Bali, Iraq, etc., but I'm guessing some has to do with what he knows (or doesn't yet know) about our sniper problem.

"Regarding the shell casing found in the truck, local (Baltimore) station is reporting that it is too old to be related to recent weeks' shootings. It apparently is quite oxidized and months old. That points either to a plant or a bad lead alltogether. I have no idea who their source was."
That's interesting. It's more than we've heard from anyone else about this so far. If you hear more about the source, please post if you can.

LOL. No, but I plan to wear one of his "J.D.Hayworth for Congress" bumper stickers on my belly.

As an addition to my post above, if this turns out to be correct, the police should have been able to rule this out right away. So why the drama at the press conference this morning and why make everyone wait until Monday? Doesn't make much sense.

I read on lucianne.com that it's Debka that's reporting that OBL is now in Saudi.

The shooter is safe and sound in Karachi. Tough luck Moose.
I'll bet he is sweating blood right now. After all, he is the one holding the bag on this one if it indeed becomes unsolved.
To: GreyWolf
Why should he (the shooter) sweat blood? After all, he's accomplished his mission.

"No, but I plan to wear one of his "J.D.Hayworth for Congress" bumper stickers on my belly."You are planning on posting a pic, right? :)

"he [Bush]was looking very worried last week in his pics, many noticed."
I noticed, too. Don't know if it's the sniper or not, but I think he knows the terrorism threat level is very high right now.
The administration knows they can't constantly be telling us the threat is high without specific information...and if they have specifics, they can't share them with us for intelligence reasons.
They just have to keep trying to thwart this stuff the best they can and they know they will not be able to stop it all. Add to that being on the verge of extending the war on terrorism to Iraq and the burden must be unbelievable..

Oui, toi.
(Not even trying to think of a comeback!) :)
To: antivenom
Yes. Another great job! Thanks. (If I may be so rude as to suggest, for my little pee brain, of course....what about numbering them 1 - 11 as opposed to duplication of 1, 2, 3, etc...... please don't take offense to my humble requests, if this is at all possible for you to change numbering system). I am completely unfamiliar with the entire area.
To: antivenom
Great map, thanks!
If I may suggest a correction, the shootings on Oct. 2 were in the PM, not AM.
