Domestic terrorism -- UPDATE

A man who may have strapped a bomb to his body has taken hostages in a Hillary Clinton campaign office in New Hampshire. She is not there, but the incident apparently prompted her cancellation of a scheduled speech elsewhere.

UPDATE: It's over. Nobody hurt. Deranged guy taken into custody.

Biden?

A Plant!

Part of the Hillary! Personal Incendiary Device Steering Committee.

I knew the freaks would find some humor in this first and foremost. The Malikin and other web sites are proving to be quite the screen grab opportunity for all the world to see exactly where the American terrorist lovering hypocrites reside. (one such grab at my name)

Some thoughts:

1. Would an Iraqi suicide bomber make sure the media was notified and present?

2. Could A-red make an even more asinine and peurile comment than he has done today?

3. There's a joke - What's the last thing an idiot says before he dies? "Hey, everyone! Loot at me!" It's not so funny anymore when you actually see it happen.

4. How will this demented act play out in the campaign ahead?

5. Won't the tabloid mentality become more evident in the mainstream media?

Jake, maybe not a plant, but I guarantee HRC and her team are playing political chess with the situation, angling for an opportunity to intervene. If she proves to the public that she can negotiate peace in Manchester, can't she bring peace to the world?

correction: Rochester

Apparently the "bomb" is road flares, and all hostages have been released. Just some looney--and NO one would be stupid enough to do something like this just because someone asked (or paid) him to.

I believe it's just a matter of time until the real thing reaches this country; a suicide bomber or multiple bombers setting themselves off simultaneously in strategic spots across the country, resulting in hundreds or thousands of deaths and injuries. I can also imagine IEDs being planted and triggered along heavily traveled interstate roads and bridges. We'd be naïve to think it can't or won't happen here. The degree of human suffering beyond that experienced with OKC and 9/11 is unimaginable and the economic impact incalculable. The clock is ticking.

Come on Abeles, A-red is being silly and you're being ridiculously overboard. Has the term Republican humorist become an oxymoron?

One only has to remember how the Republican faithful went bonkers over a brain-dead woman to understand why the G.O.P. has been taken over by Bible-thumpin', money-humpin' mental pygmies from the planet Polyester.

Has Bush so sucked the life out of the Republican party that only zombies can spout its litany of looniness? Has Hillary got them so scared that they just utter any old nonsense that comes into their pointy little heads? Has the joke replaced the sound bite which replaced the issue? If so, it won't be funny when the American voters realize that the real joke is the Republican party.

Jake, I'm sarcastic, not being overboard. Reread the posting. The real joke is how serious you and others here take yourselves. Get a life.

Argumentum ad hominem. Iterum. Totum quod habet est. Iocundum verum Abeles est.

(Watch what he says now.)

After raking leaves all afternoon, will take a new back, if a life is not available. Speaking of getting a life, is that how you respond to Terry Schiavo?

Like I said, is there such a thing as a Republican humorist? The current examplse aer woefully lacking.

I never was too good with cazrcasm anyway, comrade.

Ooops.

That should be tsarcasm, shouldn't it, fearless leader?

Widj,

My best guess is you said something about an argument about a homo with a habit of wearing a condom.

My only latin training was as an alterboy back in the latin mass era, we mainly memorized and mumbled to get by.

In high school the honors track took latin, the middle took spanish and the slow took business math.

I can still talk about kitchens and shoes in spanish with a girl named Susanna.

You're right, widjit. Veritas. I will remember that such rebuttals are second-nature to him and will be nicer to the pleasant chap in the future...even if he is a baronis.

Jake,
Surprise. My position is that Terry Schiavo should have been euthanized after her self-inflicted accident.

As for your back, why don't you hire it done?

widj (aka wwjd),
Espero que tenga un buen fin de semana. Voy a mi hacienda a mi finca ahora. Tengo mejor cosas a hacer (como cazar and tirar los patos) que mandar noticias a este blog con el 'hoi polloi', especialmente esta noche (Viernes).

Por favor, a Domingo, no toque los ninos a su iglesia. Vaya con Dios. Chao.

wijd,
Por que se existe la gente como Usted?

Creo de Sr. Haydn cuando leo este blog y la cancion nacional del un pais Europa y un fuego para ti.

Hey Fake....

What the hell are you smoking? Do you really believe the words that are coming out of your head? Republicans aren't at all afraid of that dirty dike whore, Hillary Cunton. Her face alone is enough to get people voting for anyone but her. The loony liberal pipe dream to have a feminazi become the Commander in Chief went up in smoke in the nineties, and the tired old hippies like you haven't figured it out yet. Bye Bye Baby Boom! Generation X is next - a generation that witnessed in awe the hypocrisy and treason of those before them; a generation that's predecessors were so incredibly stuck on themselves, it wasn't even given a name!

The greatest mistake that the Republican Party has made as of late is their pathetic willingness to cozy up to the leftist freaks and goons of the Dumb-o-cratic Party. Their disrespect for the Christian conservatives and treasonous display of compassion for Third World invaders has disconnected them from the heart and soul of their composition.

But don't for a second think that come general election time Republican voters will be in disarray. Even the most disgruntled Republicans will be out in full force to make certain that some tired old hippie doesn't get the chance to make things worst.

Figured this would be your kind of mess LJ. You tend to be a coward when it comes to real issues and facts.

Since you won't argue anything of substance (no facts that remain consistent or verifiable), will not defend your positions (when shown that you are factually and logically challenged), rely on pathetic and trifling attempts at humor ("hillbilly" ad nauseum, et al), and think that linking a few words together from your How To Be A Creepy Conservative bible replaces serious thought and conjecture.
When someone like you dumps garbage on our doorstep and brags about it, the kindest emotion we can feel for you is pity. (It's a pity you disgrace your fellow conservatives with such drivel.) We have some fine conervative people who come on this blog and provide us with challenging and uplifting debate. They will go toe-to-toe with us on facts, beliefs, reason, and faith without resorting to the sophomoric tripe you spew out.
They have class and character; they have taught me more about respecting the views of others. And, they can say something far more meaningful and incisive in a short paragraph than you've ever done since spilling the disorganized contents of your brain upon our pages.
Go pester other people, little fly. All you seem to offer is disease and filth, irritation and annoyance. Not the most redeeming social qualities I know of and certainly not doing the conservative cause any worthwhile good.

If you want to embarrass yourself, that's one thing; but if you embarrass and bring scorn on the good conservatives by trying to do the same to liberals or whomever you wish to deny American rights and freedoms to, then you serve this country poorly. The only one fooled by your fantasy stereotypes and insipid ideas is yourself.

From long experience in dealing with some tough debaters on this blog who fight hard and well, it's telling to see how quickly you disappear from the fray when real points need to be made and discussed. Name-calling gets stale quickly and proves to most people that the person relying on it so much has very little to actually say that is relevant. It's one thing to show wit and another to just be a clown. When you can be more of the former we will begin to forget how often you have been the latter.

The main consensus around here is that you're boring. We've seen far better men toss down their gauntlets in challenge to our ideals. The best you seem to be able to throw on the ground is your dirty underwear. To think that conservatism has been so reduced in stature by your actions.

"...The greatest mistake that the Republican Party has made as of late is their pathetic willingness to cozy up to the leftist freaks and goons of the Dumb-o-cratic Party.

Good Lord...please forgive em...they're clearly insane...and delusional.

Abeles,

Although, I'm not for euthanasia, (and you may being sarcastic again for all I know....), the Schiavo case made right-to-lifers look like extremists. As to hiring people to do my yard, that'll come when I get older and can no longer tend to such tasks for myself. Even now, there is a certain pleasure in raking despite the aches and soreness that comes later.

With your grasp of Spanish, do you hire latinos to do your yard? I tended to offer neighborhood teenagers the "opportunity" to earn "easy" money by raking & bagging our leaves. It didn't take them too long to figure out that it was hard work.

In comparison to LJ's crudeness, Abeles you are a saint. I wouldn't call him a Swiftboat type. More like a garbage scow. And, yes, Abeles, I'll try to lighten up a bit. Written sarcasm usually escapes me. Crude Dude is just a lampoon of Republicans so I want hold his frothing at the mouth comments against you and your fellow conservatives.

Wow! How many folks know about freetranslation.com? Didn't know they had Latin? Guess I need to explore more?

At first I thought it was Rep. Dimmy Altes trying to force Hillary to help him find big boats to haul the black folks back to Africa. Then I thought maybe it was Mormon Mitt showing what a tough guy he is....maybe Mitt was there with his portable waterboard or something.

Turns out it wasn't one of them Mexicans or black people we hear are ruining America, it was just another well dressed white guy, probably a Republican, probably looking for an airport bathroom to practice his wide stance in.......got lost and just picked the first door he came to.

I fully expect someone will try to knock off Hillary. Cheney-Bush have done everything up to and including murdering thousands to achieve the power they've amassed by crook & crook. There is a pesky election coming up and the polls say the Republican goose is cooked....they must be desperate to do something to stop the upcoming slaughter. Their collective asses are grasses with the Democrats solidly back in power. Might see a little jail time...might see a little firing squad action...they're in a tight spot and have to pull out all the stops.

Witness the reaction of the last 3 AT Blog Cheney-Bush supporters on this thread. When will their Republican Sleeper Cell be called into action? Twat will they strap to their chests before they enter a Hillary campaign headquarters? You didn't really think your Bush tax cuts came without strings attached? It's payback time boys!

Will you get your marching orders from Fox News? Or Diebold? Directly from Rove? Will your instructions come by email or cell phone or nail-gunned raccoon? How much jail time are you willing to serve for the Republican Party? Would you give an arm or leg for the Bush Empire? Are you willing to die for Cheney?

Tsk, tsk....suddenly it's not fun being a Republican is it? You've sold your soul for some tax cuts, your leaders have failed and now you're going to be asked to endure terrible hardships in order to save your pitiful insane corrupt incompetent sorry excuse for a political party.

Jesus instructs us to turn the other cheek, but I'm afraid I'm going to have to say FK YOU bad Americans, as you sew so shall you reap. So reap up boys, get out the duct tape and get ready to lose one for the Gipper....Hillary is SO going to be your next President.

"a garbage scow.."

Jake, what a phrase maker you are !
