FOX Mews has issued a vibrant red terra alert because

[Ilsa]

the blind sheik has a cold while in prison and told his followers to retaliate if he dies.

This was so important for them to issue the alert (instead of Homeland Security) that they delayed covering Dumbya's farewell speech to Rumsferatu.

1. LOL.

[nebenaube]

2. if that's true then they just lost their FCC license...

for yelling "fire" in the theatre...

[Ilsa]

3. Oh darling, from your lips... nt

[MonkeyFunk]

5. Do cable networks

need an FCC license?

[Tunkamerica]

15. cable channels aren't held to the same rules as broadcast

they can still be held liable if they break laws though. Like obscenity.

[BOSSHOG]

4. And if there is retaliation it will be all Bill Clinton's fault

because he had the man arrested, gave him a fair trial, found him guilty and stuck him in jail for life without fucking with the constitution one bit. How anti-conservative is that??

[lyonn]

8. Yup, damn Clinton follows the law! Now bush declares,

"watch this swing" and screw Clinton's plans for peace. Meanwhile he is panting hard for "war games", just like G.I. Joe.

6. We are Faux News and we are here to scare you and keep you subservient

to the will of The Office of the President, Our Dear Leader George W. Bush.

7. The actual alert

was issued to law enforcement by the FBI yesterday.

[hippiechick]

9. I thought it was just a 'warning' ... not an 'alert'?

At least that was how CNN was 'reporting' it. :shrug:

[lyonn]

10. Well Hippie, you know how Fox has that stright line to the WH

SARCASM-

What part of the threats from the radicals don't we understand? We should be on alert all the time. With Homeland Security on the job we should have nothing to worry about. More SARCASM.

It was all over the networks yesterday, is there something new?

[dtotire]

11. Blind Shiek

If there is a possibility that his followers would take revenge, we should just release him and send him back to Egypt, and save us the expense of treating him. He is a wanted man there. Let him die there.

[Rosemary2205]

18. Um, lyonn, you don't need the sarcasm sticky for THAT

Fox DOES have a straight line to the WH. It's called Tony Snow.

12. Dubya

is saying goodbye to Rummy today? When?

[judaspriestess]

13. did they also display of necessary items needed for survival?

like duct tape, guns, water, etc???

I'm sure wal-mart is very busy today.

[niyad]
