Sen. Schumer proposes “no-ride list” for Amtrak trains

Awesome an excuse for the government to have another bloated and ineffective bureaucracy all the while keeping closer and closer tabs on the movements of every day law abiding citizens.

Why don’t they just come out and say everyone will get fucked up the ass with anal probe before they are allow on any public transportation?

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Triple quadruple Sigh

On Thursday, the White House declined to explain why White House counterterrorism czar John Brennan and others had gotten key elements of the story wrong. “I don’t have any updates on the narrative,” press secretary Jay Carney told reporters

/banging of head on desk

On Tuesday, in correcting Brennan’s version of events, Carney said that although bin Laden was not armed when he was shot, “there were many other people who were armed” and the commandos “were met with a great deal of resistance.”

Except by the time I read this they were already saying only one person was armed.

Rush Limbaugh posted “Regime can’t get its story straight: They’ve totally bungled the post-mission explanation,” on his website.

Barack, being forced to agree with that pill pickled whackadoodle does not help your case with me.

Ari Fleischer, a George W. Bush administration White House press secretary, said the White House engaged in “sloppy messaging.”

I don’t like thinking he summed up the situation perfectly either.

This however was the closest we’ve seen of spin control,

Rogers said that bin Laden made no apparent move to surrender. “You don’t know if he’s got a suicide vest,” he said, referring to the SEAL team.

…He said there also was concern that structure could have been rigged with explosives. “These are difficult circumstances. He (bin Laden) had an opportunity to surrender. (But) this was a combat operation, and he’s an enemy combatant. It’s Osama bin Laden, for goodness sake.”

Sigh. why didn’t they come up with better than this before making the announcement???

And finally my favorite finishing touch to the subtle support for torture, Gitmo, heightened concern for terrorist attacks that is suspicioisly not reflected in the official alert level, and the like that has creepred in around the edges of this story: we need to make trains more like planes! Everythign should be humilating, over priced and uncomfortable!!!

The Department of Homeland Security said al-Qaeda has been contemplating an attack on the U.S. rail system. A memo from the agency said there is no imminent threat, but an administration official said the attack was being considered to mark the 10th anniversary of the 9/11.

SEALs had more time than originally planned – Chicago Sun-Times

hmmmmmmmmmmmmm

the chopper stuff is still full of wholes.
That thing in the pictures doesn’t seem like ti could carry that number of people.
Also that number keeps changing.
Were they going to load the prisoners or not?
Why didn’t they if a replacement chopper arrived?
They planned to go in without do any scooping up of thumb drives after subduing everyone?
WTF?
Still waiting for everyone to get their stories straight.
