Surprise! Breaking: US Raises Global Terror Threat!!

[nostamj]

EVERYBODY, and they mean EVERYBODY ON THE ENTIRE PLANET

be AFRAID. NOW.

no details. no specific threats.

just be AFRAID. VERY AFRAID. NOW.

Dick Morris: Bush has to raise the level of fear.....

it's going to be utterly relentless kids.

(unless we forget to shop, of course)

on edit: no link 'cause it was just announced as "FLASH NEWS!!!" on MSNBC.

[MadProphetMargin]

1. BROWN ALERT! All citizens please...

...change your undies.

I wonder what legislation is being pushed through while we cower in fear THIS time?

[BiggJawn]

35. No!!! Not "Condition Brown"?!?!?!

That means the Fecal Matter has hit the Air Handler! (the shit has hit the fan)

[arcane1]

2. Great news!!! Now I REALLY feel safer without Saddam!!

:eyes:

[hatrack]

3. What's the color code? Pants-crapping Pink? Screaming Yellow Bonkers?

Violent Violet? Islamist Ivory? Very Scary Berry? Panic Peach?

Informed but panicked Americans need to know!

[fob]

13. Holllleeeee Shiite, that was funny!

I've never really had a solid ethnic group to tie myself into, part english, part german, part heinz 57 ancestry. But now, thanks to Hatrack, I am a proud Panicked American! PA's Unite!!

[hatrack]

20. I salute you as a fellow Panicked-American!!

Would you like to fight terrorism by going shopping with me in an alert, vaguely panicky state of mind?

[AspenRose]

36. Ask the Lucky Charms Leprechaun

Pink hearts, yellow moons, orange stars, green clovers, oh my

[soleft]

4. The day before the marches - ubelievable!

Nostamj, you marching?

[nostamj]

9. is there a NYC meeting place? (for DUers)

the friend I would have gone with can't make it. I'm very reluctant to go alone.

oddly, I've heard very little about the NYC march. is there a rally first? :shrug:

sorry, been a shut-in writing and writing and writing to get material into rehearsal...

[soleft]

12. There's an after march spot I'll PM

Don't know about a pre march meeting point. Int'l Answer says people should filter down Madison toward 23rd Street from 34th Street.

[nostamj]

14. thanks!

an extended 'march' is tough on me physically but I do want to be there. and I'd certainly try to make an 'after' gathering!

[Southpaw Bookworm]

19. That's probably WHY the alert was upgraded

All of those antiamerican commie pinkos gathering en masse around the country -- it's a sure recipe for disaster. :eyes:

Seriously though, am I the only one who thinks this might be a ruse to allow rougher police tactics in the name of homeland security?

[0007]

5. Straps on your balls and your chin straps - red dog alert red dog alert

`Oh, it's only Dick 'toe sucking' Morris, forget it!! This guy is too weird for me.

[Jacobin]

6. but but but but

Congress just passed a resolution YESTERDAY saying the world was safer without Saddam!?!?!?!?!?!


I don't understand!!!!!

We were LIED TO??????

[rumguy]

8. ya - what a joke - the world is safer?

the rethugs will sink to any low....

[rumguy]

7. woo-hoo - hide the kids! board up your windows...the tersts

are coming - everyone pray for the boy king as he bravely fights the evil-doers!

[Renew Deal]

10. Ductape your eyes shut too.

Or something like that.

[handywork]

11. ummm

Does anyone even pay attention to this shit. Who is actually changing anything they would normally do because the terror alert has been raised.

[nostamj]

16. well, no one on this forum!

it's just another BS tactic from the bushies in concert with their mediawhore enablers.

that said: Welcome to DU! :hi:

[handywork]

23. Thanks

I've been reading for months, but just got around to finally posting.

[hatrack]

But that's the idea - you MUST CONTINUE SHOPPING!!!!

Do all the things you would normally do, but do them in a panicked and fearful state of mind.

Don't change your daily routines, but remain alert to exploding rental trucks, falling buildings or eruptions of ugly pustules on your extremities, accompanied by fever and chills.

Because if you stop shopping, (all together now),

THE TERRORISTS WIN!!

[Andy_Stephenson]

15. Be sure to have planty of

Duck Tape and plastic sheeting on hand...Never know when you may need them.

[seabeyond]

17. (unless we forget to shop, of course)

you are funny

[nostamj]

26. AND THE FEAR GOES ON... (lyrics)

my revue is going to be a bust!

this is appropriate for this thread:

to the tune of "The Beat Goes On"

AND THE FEAR GOES ON
AND THE FEAR GOES ON
AND THE FEAR GOES ON
AND THE FEAR GOES ON

PROPAGANDA IS A EATIN' ON MY BRAIN
BIN LADIN DAADDIN DEE... SADDAM DAADI DAA
TOM RIDGE WITH HIS COLOR CHART
BLAH BLAH
DUCT TAPE FROM THE QUICKEE MART
BLAH BLAH

ALL THEIR BLATHER MAKES US GROW BLASE
UH HUH
WE DON’T TRUST A THING THEY SAY
UH HUH

AND THE FEAR GOES ON
AND THE FEAR GOES ON
AND THE FEAR GOES ON
AND THE FEAR GOES ON
AND THE FEAR GOES ON
AND THE FEAR GOES ON

PROPAGANDA IS A EATIN' ON MY BRAIN
BIN LADIN DAADDIN DEE... SADDAM DAADI DAA
THEY SAY THAT THREATS KEEP RISING EVERYDAY
BUSH JUST WANTS TO BOMB THE WORLD AWAY

AND THE FEAR GOES ON
AND THE FEAR GOES ON
AND THE FEAR GOES ON
AND THE FEAR GOES ON

PROPAGANDA IS A EATIN' ON MY BRAIN
BIN LADIN DAADDIN DEE... SADDAM DAADI DAA
AND EVERY TIME WE SEE HIS RATINGS SLIP
EXPECT ANOTHER WARNING THAT MEANS ‘ZIP’

AND THE FEAR GOES ON
AND THE FEAR GOES ON
AND THE FEAR GOES ON
AND THE FEAR GOES ON

PROPAGANDA IS A EATIN' ON MY BRAIN
BIN LADIN DAADDIN DEE... SADDAM DAADI DAA
BUT BUSH WILL SOON BE WASHED OUT WITH THE TIDE
DON’T LET THE CHATTER HIDE THE FACT HE LIED

AND THE FEAR GOES ON
AND THE FEAR GOES ON
AND THE FEAR GOES ON
AND THE FEAR GOES ON

[hatrack]

31. Oh my God! I just realized something!

I haven't gone shopping today! In fact, I just sent a check to put some money into my savings account!

Oh my GOD!! Does this make me a terrorist? Am I helping the terrorists to win?

There's but one remedy - I'm going out right now to buy a completely unecessary consumer product - and I'm going to fight terror by putting it on PLASTIC!!!!

USA!! USA!! USA!! USA!!

[Andy_Stephenson]

33. Here is a novel Idea...

Buy plastic...with plastic.

It is sure to get you off the

"list"

[Bandit]

32. Is this because Congress passed a resolution saying we are safer now?

:crazy: These people are nuts.

[nostamj]

37. we are free to fear with more safetitudiness!

because things are worse, this is proof that things are better!

man, bet your water is wet and Blue's Clues are proof enough that duct tape is God's design...

or something like that. (they keep updating that damn memo!)
