What if we are attacked this time?
But the terrorists hit LA or Chicago or some other city other than NY and DC? Would it prove, once and for all that bush* is completely incompetent? or would they try to use it as an excuse for martial law/rise of the 4th reich?

1. What if we take bets on whether there will be...
...an attack this week? I'll bet "no." Any takers?

2. Just what I was thinking
we raise the threat levels on the East Coast-the terrorists know this- so they attack in another part of the country....can't see how this could be a win for Shrub unless he cancels the election....Bloomberg is to speak at 4pm Eastern....it will be interesting to hear what he says....

4. if we are?
proves bush has NOT been doing anything to make anybody safer!
If this plan is true.I don't believe it would have been aired all over the media.it should have been done in an quiet way in which to nail these guys..........they won't attack now anyways.because they know we know!!!!!
Now that didn't take much to figure out.but it will take years for the repugs to comprehend!

5. We won't be attacked again, but we will "foil" dozens of attacks
prior to the election.

8. Maybe, but I think it's more profitable for 'em to keep us guessing.
I mean, once something actually happens, well, then there can be all those could've would've should'ves. But as long as we DON'T KNOW WHICH CORNER *THEY* COULD BE BEHIND, well. doesn't give you much energy for anything else, does it? be alert! alert!!!! be vigilant!! (go shopping).
