Anti-War letters NOT linked to bombing of military recruiting station
There's apparently no link between the bombing of an military recruiting station in New York's Times Square and letters sent to Congress saying "We did it," law enforcement officials said Friday.

The lengthy anti-war letters — which arrived with photos of a man standing in front of the recruiting office before it was damaged — contained no threats and were sent to as many as 100 members of Congress, officials said.

Laura Eimiller, an FBI spokeswoman in Los Angeles, said an individual was questioned there about the letters to Congress and "there is no evidence linking the letters, which contained no threat, to the bombing."

A law enforcement official in Washington, who spoke on condition of anonymity because the investigation of the bombing is continuing, called the timing of the letters an "incredibly unbelievable coincidence" and said no charges were expected in connection with them.

3. How can you be out of work if you are a "Live Nude College Girl?"
I mean that's a permanent occupation isn't it?

5. well, if you believe the RWers, intelligent, educated females are all
truck-driving, hairy-armpit/legged lesbians who weigh at least 200 lbs ...

So, that's how you could be out of work and still a "live nude college girl" ...

2. Tinfoil Hat Firmly In Place Now...
This bombing was just "too neat"...the timing just too right and in a place that sends a warning. Now which 100 members of Congress got these letters? They just didn't happen to be those whose votes for Telcom Immunity are needed, would they?

I'll be watching how the corporate media, this regime and hate radio plays this story...are we into a new phase of shock and awe of the American electorate by a desperate and dangerous right wing?

4. maybe the FBI and such should actually focus on the militant "Pro-America" crowd
who constantly seem to know exactly what's on the minds on terrorists (unless they're able to use telepathy, where do they get their info?) ... maybe they'd find a bunch of terrorists there who want to make it look like the proponents of peace are the violent ones ...
