Assassination of Obama?! WTF?!

[vaberella]

Am I the only one watching Race to the White House? Apparently the FBI foiled an assassination attempt. Shit!! This country sometimes.

[RagAss]

1. ATF foiled it.

[HughMoran]

2. Yep

kinda old news here

[Motown_Johnny]

3. this broke a couple hours ago.. an 18 and a 20 year old who are clearly nuts...

want to wear white tuxedos and shoot at him with a rifle from a speeding car.




just more right wing nut jobs who are so stupid they are dangerous

10. I didn't know. I just found out when I got home from class. Thanks for letting me know. n/t

4. The suspects had a combined IQ of -.02, this is a non story.

Trust me.

8. Liar.

It was .002 :-)

[Phoonzang]

5. David Gregory salivating at the prospect of it "making people think".

I hate that fucking ape face.

[vaberella]

17. No kidding.

BTW, I thought I was the only one who thought Gregory had the face of a chimp.

6. I think the lack of disbelieving commentary here and elsewhere

is an indication that we have almost expected this and must focus on the prevention of further attempts rather than denying their likelihood. It's just one more reason to sincerely admire Obama: he's living his principles and working for our country at very real risk to his personal safety.

7. Thank god they couldn't pull it off

[uppityperson]

9. That was only the finale. There were going to kill a school first, shoot, decapitate, only then

try for Obama.

[vaberella]

11. I realized that. What kills me is how the pundits just washed over it...like it was nothing. n/t

[uppityperson]

13. And the timing of the press release, right after Stevens conviction. 102 murdered don't count for

much. Only "omg an assassination attempt!". Ignore the 102 who were going to be shot/decapitated first. Ignore that that were young bozos wanting to go out in a blaze of glory. Stevens was found guilty, press release. Not that I'm jaded or cynical.

[vaberella]

18. Exactly. n/t

[mscuedawg]

12. and thanks to the hate rallies of the McCain / Palin campaign....

Silence in the face of hate is NOT fit to lead!!!!!!

14. Picture of one of the idiots.

15. Reich wing thug no doubt. n/t

16. Oh God. No kidding when I say I feel like I'm getting a crash course in the Civil Rights Movement.

19. You scared the SH*T out of me with your hyperventilating thread title!!

Please GOD don't do that again!!!!!!!!!

[vaberella]

21. I'm so so so sorry. I didn't mean to scare you. I was a bit freaked by the statement on

Race to the White House.

20. I posted about it- check below n/t
