CNN with the sound off...
I've been on the phone for much of the morning, and I've had CNN on the teevee with the sound turned down. I've noticed something in the course of the morning.
Now that the Alert Color is back up to Orange, they've regularly peppered their newscast with images of Al-Zawahiri and other Al-Q members (including Osama the Escaped), as well as re-showing footage of the Riyadh bombings from last week (as they usually do every day and every time terrorism is mentioned). I've determined that if you caught CNN with the sound off, you might think that there was a fresh terrorist bombing every hour and that Al-Q is wandering the globe at will, in plain sight, plotting their fiendish plots and bombing everything in sight.
I feel bad for the more gullible people in this country. They must think that there are bombings occurring 2 or 3 times a day.
Replies: somebody speaks up.
If the answer to the question is "23," what was the question?
The question was: How many of the 19 hijackers (on September 11th) were Iraqi?
Sadly, I'm convinced that most of my fellow citizens would not see the irony...
