BREAKING: Explosive Device Damages Times Square Armed Forces Recruiting Station

[berni_mccoy]

Sorry, not actually breaking.... this happened under Bush in March 2008. Funny thing is, I don't remember hearing about this. Oh, and the terrorist was never caught. Maybe it was the same guy who just tried to bomb Times Square... that would mean Bush failed to catch the guy who got another shot at bombing Times Square. Wonder why this wasn't in the MSM for days on end and no Republicans spoke out about how Bush policies didn't keep us safe.

For a complete list of terrorist attacks on U.S Soil under Bush just for his 2nd term see: http://journals.democraticunderground.com/berni_mccoy/973 (there are more than you think and some you may not have heard of).

5. Bush is the Biggest F'Up in American History

and so are those who voted for him

[MadBadger]

6. Ooook. Are you expecting some argument from me?

Because I remember the Recruiting Station thing in Times Square?

7. hell no!

just a statement about Bush himself and what a miserable sneaky bastard he is...

[TwilightGardener]

4. Oh no, the official message was "Bush kept us safe!"

Didn't matter what happened under his watch, whether his fault or not (and I didn't necessarily blame him for all terrorist activities)--Bush kept us safe, that is the media's mantra and they are sticking to it.

8. The television series "Law and Order" did an episode based on this event. . .

Season 19, episode 13, titled "Crimebusters," aired February 11, 2009.

An Army recruitment center is bombed. An unconscious woman and a dead baby are found in the wreckage.
Partially inspired by the March 6, 2008 Times Square bombing of a military recruiting station, the Caylee Anthony homicide and Websleuths controversial involvement.

9. The Bush administration classified it as a terrorist attack, too.

So the Bush administration itself proves the meme of "there were no attacks under the Bush Administration" as false.

10. Memory hole.

Falls into that "Yeah - I remember that. Whatever came of that?" category.

11. I remember that one...

But then, I was only a few blocks away that day.

13. Was this when you were still in that coma?

Or were you taking a break from all electronics or something?

Are you in grade school? Maybe you were in school that day and your parents didn't want to frighten you.

Everyone else seems to know about it so I'm just trying to think of a logical reason why you would have missed it...hmmmmm.....

14. Lose the snark.

Not everyone remembers every fucking detail under the Bush administration.

[berni_mccoy]

15. It's funny because I'm the first to bring it up in context of the recent bombing attempt

and the MSM is mysteriously silent on the issue.

If everyone heard of this or remembered it so well, why isn't it relevant to all the asshats discussing Obama's policy on terrorism?

Don't have a good answer for that, do ya?
