I'll bet you're exactly right, Ozarks! You definitely nailed that about the lower standard they'll be held to. And that's fitting, too, since they are a lower standard when it comes to credible information.

Great Spirit, if he were able to be present with us (and I'm awfully glad he cannot) would remind us that October isn't over yet. I'm sure he's sitting on pins and needles, certain that the "next staged terror attacks" will happen within the next nine days.

Certainly a terrorist attack could happen. We all know that's a possibility. But I'm not twisted enough to think it'd be staged by our own government. I frankly think everyone in our government is probably working extra hard to prevent any terrorist surprises between now and election day in early November. I appreciate their efforts, too.

Ozarks, I always enjoy reading what you have to say. Glad you chimed in on this.

And Mr. Devious, I'm glad you dug up this old thread. I'd made a note of it a long while back, along with several others about the certain staged attacks this month, and planned to trot them out on November 1, but I'm glad this one's back in play a little early. Seems fitting since GS can't be here to taunt us himself with his paranoiac promises of our imminent demise.
