Flying Buildings into London and Fox News’ Hard-Hitting Journalism

In an effort to justify his government’s use of torture and spying on its own citizens, George Bush spoke of terror plots that have been thwarted through use of these techniques.

Included in the list was a plot to fly a plane into “Library Tower” in Los Angeles (gosh, that word is tough, it’s actually liberty. It’s an especially tough word, apparently, for George Bush, for whom the irony is completely lost), and “flying buildings into London”

Oh my God, Al Qaeda is now using flying buildings to terrorize us.

Quick, let’s go torture someone.

He then asks which of the named terrorist plots for which the government had “intelligence” his critics would have had him not stop.

As Keith Olbermann pointed out and to which I agree, the plot I’d have had the government stop wasn’t on the list. The one on September 11th, 2001.  

Quick, let’s go torture someone.

Bush has successfully made this nation one that apparently operates on fear. For me, I am most afraid that before the next 14 months are finished, George Bush will have sent us into another war, further censored science in order to ignore pending environmental hardship (to say the least), and so thoroughly damaged this country that generations will pass before the spiral begins to reverse.

On the plus side, I have learned to laugh and cry at the same time.

And if all that weren’t enough, Fox News reported that there was “intelligence” that the wildfires in southern California may have been set by Al Qaeda. The report was based on a blog post from June 25^th – of 2003. Ooops. (Note to Fox News: when researching the blogoshere for current events coverage, check the date of the blog post… No problem, glad I could help.)

Here’s my theory based on current evidence: Fox News is actually run and staffed by Al Qaeda operatives in an attempt to foist upon us George Bush’s agenda, one that  supports an unreasonable fear of everything and everyone and allows (they hope) the American people to accept the slow decay and absolute abandonment of the very principals upon which this country is based. Eating away from the inside, as it were.

All I’m sayin’ is that we need to be vigilant. There are flying buildings out there coming to get us.

God help us.
