Ford Prefect at 96

300,000 is THE number. Can you imagine the number of FBI trainees who had to listen?

That’s like 800 a day for a year!

Even if we assume the FBI was wiretapping these guys 10 years ago that would still be like 80/day! 8 calls every hour for 10 hours straight!

Ahme! Did these guys work?

Can you imagine the phone bills they would have racked up?

And to get a paltry number (230) with supposed “code words” about weddings, parties, and football matches and think that these are other than just some things that might be placed in their normal discussions…is really insane.

And if Padilla was some sort of hardcore member of the “conspiracy” one would think that there would be a high percentage of references to him.

Why would Chris Matthews have a known liar and fabricator like Judy “I was fucking right” Miller on his program to talk about Al Queda?

Unless you want to be lied to.

Who in the hell would believe anything Judy Miller has to say? She is drowning in the Iraqi peoples blood.

It was more like Judy “I was fucking David Petraeus” Miller…let’s call it as it is.

God, this is therapeutic.

Ctuttle – I do. Whether b/c they are fellow travelers or simply b/c in following precedence they have to.

Ironic that the Federalist’s are strict constructionists and are willing to discard Stare Decisis, and, Liberals/Moderates, whom are smeared as ruling by Judicial decree, actually respect Stare Decisis??? WTF???
