Massive chemical plant explosion in MI last night
Edited on Wed Aug-10-05 10:19 AM by LuckyTheDog
But what was CNN and Fox covering last night? MORE on Natalie Holloway! When cable news turns down the chance to air pictures of flames shooting 300 ft. in the sky, something is horribly wrong.

The local media was all over it:

2. incredible !
It's amazing to me that this slipped through the cracks. I guess there were not enough 'significant' injuries (?)

5. Kind of makes you wonder if it was sabotage
Might bode poorly for * admin if it was. I have suspected for some time now that we have been attacked since 9/11. They're just not tellin.

No tinfoil here, take away the whole "we're keeping America safe" meme and they stand naked, without even so much as a tattered scrap of American flag to hide behind.

Tell me, why would they ignore something that visually spectacular? Other possibilities:
catastrophic environmental damage?, great risk to health? all things perhaps they don't want us to think about.

6. Any pretty white girls killed?
Any pretty white girls in a coma as a result of the explosion?

No?

Well then, there's your answer.
