Fear Factor

Do we not get color codes any more?

CNN BREAKING NEWS / RUSH TRANSCRIPT: "Terrorists have been discovered in the advanced planning stages of an attack in Germany on US personnel, military personnel, and/or tourists," CNN reported live on air Friday afternoon.

  Raw Story article

And or?

Sump'n's gonna happen! Sump'n's gonna happen!

A CNN anchor said they were able to confirm the information with "senior federal officials," though acknowledged that "other intelligence officials said that this threat lacked a little 'in specifics in terms of timing.'"

It lacks "a little" in terms of more than timing.

And, why on earth would we need other intelligence officials anyway? "Senior federal officials" ought to be good enough. They haven't led us wrong yet.

ABC News has a special photo gallery on the terror threat fercrissakes. Honestly. You won't believe it. Extremely informative! Check it out for yourself.

"The information behind the threat is very real," a senior U.S. official told ABC.

Yeah, real it is - the information. Honest? Accurate? Meaningful? Maybe not so much. The threat itself real? Maybe not so much either. Who knows? Maybe it's being planned by friends of the Fort Dix Fools. Maybe helped along by the same FBI and/or other US agency.

This attorney purge business is just getting too much press.

CNN really is competing with Fox, isn't it?


....but hey, do what you want....you will anyway.
