2. Not supprising, many building materials are made of plastic these days
The only part of that building that is old is the outside.

10. Most of the renovations go back to those made in the Truman era.
Not old; but was plastic used that much in the late Forties and early Fifties? :shrug:

But you are right, the White House is just a shell for an early 1950s building.

7. Kelly O'Donnell saying Sensitive, Classified Documents stored in EOB...
and usually they are required to be in "fireproof" safes but not all documents would be held there if there are documents currently being worked on. She spend alot of time talking about Sensitive Documents and papers...and "top secret" files. She's asking if anyone had time to lock down the files.

Very interesting how much she's going on about it.

13. Aw, Come'on...
You just CAN'T expect the poor executive branch of our superpower government to take as many precautions with their important documents as my small business takes with it's weekly backup data tapes.

I mean...get REAL!


:crazy:

18. sure did
when fires are being used as leverage that means the battle has heated up also it means its coming to a head and once it does with all the criminal activeity of the bush cabal comes to the forefront then all hell will break loose. have you noticed the increased media scrutiny, I have and with every tiny bit of info exposing these crooks is having a heavy toll today unlike a few months and further back did. We're on a roll and we win this one.

17. Media has now locked it down. They spend all day on missing people, Brittany, and other fires ,
car chases and explosions in parts of the country but the Historic EOB which houses VP's Office, Secret Service, National Security Council goes up in flames and after they jumped to Bush Signing the Energy Bill (which got wall to wal coverage) shortly after the EOB story goes away. Relegated to the "top and bottom" of the hour news stories.

20. Plastic...As In Tapes? Oh How 70s. LOL

But considering many inside that bunker were around during Watergate, I wouldn't be surprised if Rosemary Woods Jr. was hard at work in the back room and hit the "self destruct" switch. :rofl:
