Terror Threat Upgrade? or Bin Laden Sighting?
Ok, we all know that when B* gets in trouble, he resorts to a diversion. What's it going to be? new terror warning or bin laden close to being caught. Hmmm. It's gotta be something to help Jeb too, though....Ok, I got it, Bin Laden seen somewhere in Florida !!!

2. No, they already started with the "bogus Talking Points"
They were not signed, Tucker Carlson is claiming they were forged by the Dems, yeah, right.

give him a good stern talking to.

(The Dems knew that it was a Rove special the minute they saw it)
The distribution of anonymous materials on the Senate floor is troubling. Those who would attempt to influence debate in the United States Senate should not hide behind anonymous pieces of paper.

Sen. Lautenberg calls for investigation into who distributed Schiavo talking points

9. Well, speaking of Lautenberg -- What the hell happened to
his investigation into White House propaganda machine (i.e. Gannon) -- or would this just dovetail into it ??

12. just sent him an e-mail about the Gannon case
I told him that I was worried about the Gannon investigation and the Plame case and that justice delayed is justice denied.

7. I'm worried
and a littel frightened--I see the only way they could float a draft was if gas were $4 a gallon or there was a high level assassination, that is--take out someone who is both symbolic and dispensible

10. I saw his brother in Texas... he used to be a pardner of some local
oilmen some years back.... thought I saw Bin Laden at Walmart the other day.... coulda been Elvis, with all that hair and beard... oh.. and I did bump into an entourage of Taliban in Houston, out shopping, sight seeing, being wooed by Unocal whilst the invincible george was gubner.... couldn't understand all of it... but then stranger things have happened, such as the reselection of shrub.

11. probably not a full blown terra-lert at the moment
but certainly the white house news feeding tube is pumping info about "possible vague non-specific threats" -- just enough to take people's minds off of being screwed at the gas pumps

13. Rove will probably try to invent
something new. Something that will really scare the crap out of the peeps.

I guess we will just have to wait and see.
