26. How is that possible?
Edited on Wed May-11-05 01:31 AM by FreedomAngel82
Aren't they supposed to be on top of EVERYTHING security wise? There's so many hole's in this story. According to a news report on Bernie Ward's show (ABC) their correspondents didn't see anything. So where did it come from and how was it able to get that close?

30. The Idiot's Ratings Have Slipped....
Maybe this is ANOTHER con job! But not matter, if this flies like everything else it's just one more step towards more UNREALITY!!

I'm so sick of them pushing the terror button, but as long as this goes on, WE are going to have to "take cover"!

25. Who even watches Keith anymore? He's fixated on Runaway Bride...
and is selling his Michael Jackson "Puppet Theatre" on Ebay (which was the only redeeming insight left on his show. Watching Countdown the last two months is like watching Fox. Pathetic.

I'll stick with Jon Stewart. Fake news has become more real than the allegedly real stuff.

31. How can they be certain Bush was the intended target?
Is he really that hated all over the world that anytime something like this happens it's Bush they're after? Hell! Maybe it was old-guard KGB pissed off at Georgia for not attending their shindig. :shrug: The thing that sounds "off" about the story and gets my red alerts up is the SS not being notified until two hours after Bush left.

So, presuming there actually was a grenade or some other device there are only two possible answers: 1) The device was not there until after Bush left which means it was never a threat to him; or 2) The Secret Service really screwed up in overlooking the device and if so,...whooo boy! That's not a good sign.
