Tin foil hat theory the grenade attack.

[DanCa]

Supposedly thousand of people came out to show the love for the chimp. Now we have a story about a grenade attack. I dont want to sound like a tin foil hat type but does this sound fishy? I mean chimpy's numbers are in the dumper, so what better way to surge him back into "popularity" So do you all the attack is a phony story or am I ready for the rubber room?

1. Somebody said it was a pinecone.

2. Yea, but the pin was pulled

That pinecone could have KILLED!!! Thank my white male christian supreme diety it didn't go off!

12. It was a viciously sharp slice of mango, wasn't it?

Haig: I haven't seen you since... (knocks down the second line of model soldiers on the same side)

Edmund: '92, sir -- Mboto Gorge.

Haig: By jingo, yes. We sure gave those pygmies a good squashing.

Edmund: We certainly did, sir. And do you remember...?

Haig: My god, yes. You saved my damn life that day, Blacky. If it weren't for you, that pygmy woman with the sharpened mango could have seriously...

Edmund: Well, exactly, sir. And do you remember then that you said that if I was ever in real trouble and I really needed a favour that I was to call you and you'd do everything you could to help me?

Haig: (sweeps the fallen soldier models into a dustpan) Yes, yes, I do, and I stick by it. You know me -- not a man to change my mind.

Edmund: No -- we've noticed that.

Haig: So what do you want? Spit it out, man. (hurls the dead platoon over his shoulder)

Edmund: Well, you see, sir, it's the Big Push today, and I'm not all that keen to go over the top.

Haig: (sits) Oh, I see. Well...

Edmund: It was a viciously sharp slice of mango, wasn't it, sir...

17. LOL! That was funny! n/t

[atommom]

19. Probably a pineNUT.

Go ahead, laugh. It's always funny until someone loses an eye...

3. I frankly think

this whole thing sounds an awful lot like the rubber turkey incident, replete with air force one "almost" being spotted by british air.

In short, a total crock of crap.

4. "Hmmm, it's a possibiliteee!"

[slaveplanet]

5. this is obviously

a staged distraction. There is no way a grenade can be thrown , and the person not caught. This is either a move to evoke sympathy for shrub , or a distraction from something big going on this week...

[FreedomAngel82]

13. True

Why haven't we heard about them capturing the person? If this story was true wouldn't they have caught him very quickly? I haven't heard about it much on the MSM. My Mom surely would've told me about it.

[proud patriot]

6. Well something is off with the story IMO

but I can't put my finger on it

[babylonsister]

7. Total distraction; but if/when it's disproved, this admin

will have a lot of egg to wipe off their collective smirking faces.

9. The Vatican has some sort of fetish for the lowly

pinecone... or so it would seem..... :)

8. Wait, wait, wait. What the heck is this about?

I've been a bit out of the loop. Links?

10. Here ya go, BB. All over the place tonight.

11. put that tin foil hat away : ) you're not alone

one can't help being cynical w/this gang and their record

soon as I heard it, I thought: a gimmick to make sure he makes the corporate news

these are sick 'people'

[DanCa]

18. But it's such a nice tin foil hat :)

It looks like something that either Napoleon or the JPJ society would wear. :) :)

14. There is something fishy about the whole thing. "Possible grenade"

that landed "in the vicinity" of Bush ... and bounced off a crowd member 100 feet away? Sounds like a tempest in a teapot.

[FreedomAngel82]

15. I'm listening to

Bernie Ward now and they just had a newsreport and talked about this. According to their report Secret Service saw no disturbance within a hundred feet of Bush and agents on the ground are investigating. ABC news correspondents traveling with Bush say they didn't see anything unusual. In other words: total bullshit personally.

[babylonsister]

16. Ironically, every station aired the attempted

possible-possible-maybe- grenade/pine cone that landed on the stage. And the SS knew 2 hours later? I was one of many that heard about this initially, but now I'm apalled that BlivetCo would go to these limits to create an 'int'l incident'!

[demgurl]

20. I can't get around that word 'possible'.

I can see possibly being pregnant. I can even see possibly being impeached.

I can not see something possibly being a tree, possibly being grass or possibly being a human being. I can not see something possibly being a grenade. Either it is or it isn't.

I think this whole incident is suspect from top to bottom.
