Hmmmm. Is stormfront closed today?

One heavily armed woman scouted out a military base to plan a terrorist attack against it because Glenn Beck convinced her it was a FEMA camp.

I realize Clinton faced the same irrational fear before going down as one of the most successful presidents, but I'm increasingly concerned Obama won't survive long enough to reach that point.

Why? Is he in anymore danger then any other President?

i've never heard anything about his politics. he famously shot reagan to impress jodie foster.

and let's also keep in mind that in the 7 months since obama has been president, at least 2 right-wingers (one of whom is a birther) have already gone on shooting sprees.

i can't think of any instances of leftists in the u.s. killing or hurting people for political reasons for decades, at least. can you?
Good question.

Yeah, John Hinkley was not a "lefty", he shot him because he was crazy and wanted to impress Jodie Foster. It wasn't a politically motivated shooting.

Please enlighten me (seriously - I'm curious).
In Georgia(country), someone from the crowd threw a grenade at Bush but the guy put the handkerchief too tightly around the grenade, he put it there to keep it from exploding too quickly, anyways, it never went off. If it went off though Bush would probably be dead. That guy got life in 2006.

and on 9/11, a van pulled up with middle eastern guys in it who said they had a poolside interview with bush. there was no schedule and they didnt let them in. a group successfully assassinated ahmad massour 2 days earlier with the exact same strategy, massoud was anti-taliabn fighter.

in all, there are 90 known attempts. 4 succeeded, and the other 2 attempts the president survived(reagan, former pres roosevelt)

A van pulled up where? Where would a "pool side" interview with Bush take place on 9/11?
