And to top it all off, they were in place for two weeks before someone in charge noticed them. If they HAD been bombs, the damage would have been done.
not to mention the fact that bombers generally don't call attention to their bombs by covering them with lights...
Fox News seems to be banging the drum over what an atrocity this was particularly hard, and a much beloved internet moonbat took time off from calling for the execution of John Kerry to insist that these things LOOK JUST LIKE PIPE BOMBS!
Wow. I'd never seen that before. What's he doing on Livejournal? I thought us furries 0wned this place.
It's not Fox News Channel anymore. Thanks to our good friend Keith Olbermann it is now the Fox Noise Channel. Couldn't have thought of a better one myself.
One time, in some community here on LJ, I said that I wasn't a fan of how Condoleezza Rice was carrying out her duties (in just about as many words), and Banner just went off on me about how I was biased because I "hate niggers" and was misogynist or something.
Attempts to explain that I had never even mentioned Rice's race or gender in my one (1) comment failed to have any effect on getting Banner to think of me as anything other than a nigger-hating woman-basher.
He keeps big cats? My mental image of him has always been of a precocious but angsty fourteen year old who discovered Hannity and Coulter and became smitten with the way they pour out scorn, and decided to craft an online persona for himself based on their style, and parroting their views on issues he doesn't really understand.
I'm not sure I'd buy any claims of his owning big cats, or frankly anything beyond a bedroom at his parents' place filled with model airplanes and posters of Ann Coulter and Laura Ingram, but I've never met him, and I've been wrong before.

While I think it was an overreaction, the marketing company REALLY should have thought this through a little more.

That reminds me, have his big cats mauled anyone lately?
