What will be the next "Bush Surprise"
Edited on Mon Jun-28-04 03:47 PM by Doosh
Let's see, we had Saddam by Christmas, the Iraq handover 2 days early, and I'm sure a few others that have slipped my mind at the moment.


I predict Osama somewhere around the 4th of July........just don't let it catch you off guard. I say 6pm July 3rd.

4. Osama in July-Sept. LIHOP II Sept.Oct.
Bank on it.

And you San Franciscans, beware becase you are in the Bush Target sites.

The Busheviks are going to hit you, whom they hate only sedcond to NYC...next.

The Imperial Family Bush hates you for your freedom, you know. And they have no compunctions about murdering thousands, it's quite clear.

5. I predict they will find Osama
Exactly 5 days after they tell the Student Loan people that he has loans in default.

7. It will be the Golden Gate Bridge
in California for the grand finale. Guards were pulled of the assignment of watching it a month or so ago. Since California is a blue state, I spect they would want to change it to a red state by a terrorist attack there.

13. More true than you imagine

bridge was one of those 30's public works projects, guaranteed by
the US Gov (but to be paid for with tolls over 20 years).
But definitely a "new deal" development project.

I agree that SF is next for MIHOP II, but odds on favorite for
LIHOP II is LAX (OBL never gives up on a target). And the Bushistas
have sufficiently "demonized" all Californians (and Bay Area people
in particular) that the rest of the nation will secretly rejoice
that "those gay liberal tree huggers out there had the protection
of God Almighty removed from them because of their lifestyles".

6. "capture" of Al Zarqawi
Since they attribute everything that happens in Iraq recently to this guy, it wouldn't surpise me if they have already him in custody somewhere and will wheel him out at a key moment.

14. Except that I think he is a CIA construct

and not a real person. So he doesn't get captured, he is "killed in
a brilliant raid on a known terrorist hideout" or something. Just as
soon as they don't need "him" anymore to whip up outrage over beheading
good 'merican soldiers.

Which is not to say that ALL of the beheadings were staged, just the
one of Nick Berg. That set the bar for other real terrorists in the
region to get noticed, and bingo, they fell for it.

And this new marine that held captive... I'm not sure that's at all
real (but this time, it may be a black op by the other side).
