I think the new Terror threats are a set-up

[Bandit]

I think they will go out and arrest some poor Arab Muslim and say look we stopped a major terrorist attack. Only Bush* can do these things to keep you safe so vote for Bush*. No way to prove any different.

1. they are not new threats

There is no new information. Simple common sense tells you that any large gathering, particularly if it is a political gathering, is going to be a target. That's all they've said. They said it before.

Making it appear as if it is a new threat was strictly political.

4. and what abt DOJ enablers of torture - 2 lawyers wrote memos that Geneva

Convention 'not (necessarily) applicable.'

A lawyer now teaching in CA and a lawyer nominated for fed judiciary, name now dropped. There have been DU threads about each.

Ashcroft implicated/in chain of of command responsible for torture.
