WTF - another Harry-twisting of [a] nonstory...


Lets call the subject "The Bush Administration Wants Your Almanacs"
then post a story, (probably copyrighted) with no attribution , that
says absolutely nothing about the government wanting to take almanacs.

And nobody has said that possessing an almanac proves you're a
terrorist.

Of course if someone with a higlighted almanac had blown up a landmark
building landmark building, bridge, or dam last week, you would have
been screaming about how the Bush admisitration's justice department
overlooked obvious evidence.

Harry, I know you don't believe your own bull****, why should the rest
of us?


Here you go, echoes for brains:


If you are hearing echoes, Harry, it's because your bull**** can clear

I have snipped the rest of your out of context crap. Showing me a
dozen one liners from news articles does notback up your implication
that FBI is going to kick down anyone's door to see if they have
almanac on the coffee table. supporting your point. Even your
careful placing of ellipses doesn't seem to help you. "Drop the
almanac and put your hands up!" A catchy bull**** headline... of
course reading the articles will reveal that possessing an almanac
will hardly draw black helicopters to your rooftop.

How about this from Associated Press -

.... [The FBI] urged [police] officers to watch during searches,
traffic stops and other investigations for anyone carrying almanacs,
especially if the books are annotated in suspicious ways ...

....The FBI noted that use of almanacs or maps may be innocent, "the
product of legitimate recreational or commercial activities." But it
warned that when combined with suspicious behavior — such as apparent
surveillance — a person with an almanac "may point to possible
terrorist planning."...

Exactly what part of this says that possessing an almanac will mean
that the FBI assumes you are a terrorist? You're full of **** Harry.
You know it. If I am to believe some of the things you have said in
the past, I assume you've made at least part of your living shoveling
bull****.
