BREAKING: CNN IS TRYING SCARE PEOPLE

[Halliburton]

says March Madness is in danger of terrorist attack!

[NVMojo]

1. No, it's the FBI and Bush who is doing that. CNN just asked if it was real

or not.

[BrklynLiberal]

8. Isn't that like asking "Do you still beat your wife?" Just asking the

question helps to raise the possibility, and scares the people. They are helping the BFEE terrorize the people.

[Elwood P Dowd]

2. You just had to know they were going to pull some crap like this

These people are so predictable. Every time Bush gets is ass in a crack, Rove shoots a big pile of shit out of his ass.

[proud2BlibKansan]

3. Friday news dump

[jus_the_facts]

4. Geaux Terra....sigh....

[0007]

12. Sheeple drinking cool-aid is cool.

Do one on Duct Tape, Plactic, and bullshit.

[jus_the_facts]

22. you asked for it....

[arcane1]

25. LMAO!

[jus_the_facts]

26. Me too...

[0007]

32. thanks.

[Arkansas Granny]

19. Love your sheeple.

5. ABC news tonight

gave this a lot of play. Vargas had a guest to discuss the implications. Told my husband that Bush was down in the polls, so time for a terror alert.

[Initech]

6. This is news? CNN's JOB is to scare the shit out of people!

[LibraLiz1973]

7. Why, is Cheney planning on going to a game?

he and his gang of thugs are the most dangerous terrorists out there right now

[arcane1]

9. I, for one, am THANKFUL that they are saying this!

It literally NEVER occurred to me that terrorists would try to attack a crowded building full of people

:sarcasm: <<<--- as if this was really needed

[havocmom]

10. DUer made a good observation about it

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=102x2159302#2159316

Tip of the hat to brilliant DUer IanDB1 for pointing out lost worker productivity during the tournaments

[HockeyMom]

11. Bush's Latest Poll Numbers

LOWEST ever. Even 70% of REPUBLICANS now say Iraq is in a Civil War.

* is hoping a new terror alert will raise his numbers and salvage the disaster of his presidency.

[malaise]

13. Anything to change the subject

It hasn't been a good week for Bushco.

[Cha]

14. What's new?

My son called me from Kauai the Friday of the big winds here in New York to see how I was. He said cnn told it like .."don't even bother calling your Mom..she's dead already"!

And, of course, that's what Michael Moore in "Bowling For Columbine" pointed out..the media in America is here to SCARE the BeJesus outta ya!

[northofdenali]

15. Does this mean I can't go out to eat tonight?

Maybe I should go buy some duct tape?

[NYC]

16. FBI said no credible threat.

The FBI said it is unaware of any specific or credible plans to attack any sporting event but notes that terrorist groups have mounted attacks at sporting events in the past.

Remember when Ashkkkroft frightened Boston shortly after 9/11? The FBI said there was no credible threat at that time, too.

[baldguy]

17. The regime exists on fear.

It must promote fear among the population to survive.

[katty]

20. V for VENDETTA

[AX10]

18. ABC too. Also, ABC says the economy is "great".

:eyes:

[jedr]

21. turned off CNN as soon as it was said, just shook my head;

For the Genius that Rove is supposed to be, you think they could get something new. Don't ya just love George Bushes Amerika!:banghead:

[lovuian]

23. Where is March Madness held???

:crazy:

[Berry Cool]

24. Lots of places. That's part of what makes the idea so absurd.

Games are held at various places throughout the country. To hit them all at once would take more coordination than 9/11.

And here I was thinking "Boy, someone is really pissed it looks as if 'Cuse is going to get in after all..."

[Cleita]

27. So is there going to be a war on the Easter Bunny too?

I feel like I am living in a theater of the absurd imagined by Kafka.

[bobbieinok]

31. don't worry...bushco won't let gays take part in WH easter egg hunt

[hyphenate]

28. You can tell Rove is getting desperate

again--more of the "let's scare the shit out of them so they can't think straight" talk--it's mainly used as a distraction when things get a little tough.

[FreedomAngel82]

30. Are you serious?

[UrbScotty]

33. It's been a while since some good-looking chick got lost

They need the distraction.
