Do you remeber all those terror warnings we used to get, they would go from orange to red to yellow, I think the last major one we had was the day after the Democratic National Convention, what happened to those things?

We stopped issuing them after we lost the war in Iraq.

Cause we've been graced to not have the need? Keep praying for your demise, you two, you may not like what you get. If I never see or read of another warning, it'll be too soon.

I am just saying the point of those terror warnings were to keep the masses aligned and vote for Bush in 04, the plan worked, notice those warnings pretty much died right after the elections in 04

We may or may not have another terror attack, we could have one tommorow, I am just saying the point of those warnings was to vote for Bush in 04

Hmmm. No new 'campaign contributions' from the manufacturers of duct-tape and plastic-wrap???

And keeping masses focused on conspiracy theories keeps money rolling in for fat guys in Hollywood who have no interest in the truth.

As for the warnings? They were useless overall. Hopefully everyone is keeping an eye out for weird activities without relying on a stupid color to tell them to do so.

No fears there, I suspect. We're nearing the season when the DC Metro system is shut down for hours at a time because a Xmas gift falls out of a bag and is inadvertently left lying by a bench on a platform somewhere...

As long as they notice the suspicious boxes wrapped in dangerous colors, while leaving those guys in the corner with box cutters alone, everything will be A okay.
