My twisted mind sees this as a way to get those "losing hope" to rally their belief and defend Obama... and a way for him to say, "Shucks folks, I really did try!". It is so sick that our country is so great and so deserving of "protection" from "terrorists" that we can't risk incarcerating said "terrorists" within our borders, we're better than that, entitled to more security. (Not that any of them really deserve incarceration.) WTF

Wondering again (really need to sleep!), is this something to veil something else? a feint?

Snot a feint or a "veil". Who do they need a "feint" for? They have no opposition.

Better to think about how this shit actually happens - without plans of any kind. Plotters are for DU. All we have to do is prosecute/expose/regulate/replace/enlighten them... No?

What I really meant was what's going on that they don't want the general populous to know about? Or to forget. Kind of like the swine flu thing taking over the headlines about the torture photos. The propaganda of this whole story line here, I guess. Plot maybe , but Obama does seem to be losing popularity all over the place, and not just DU, his insistence on closing Gitmo, might return "hope" to some, and it would serve the ruling elite to keep him popular for a bit longer.

That said, you're right. :)

Nor does Nick Nolte, who might be real upset to have his pick put in for Busey!!

this is Busey...and this:

Neither one looks like a cop I'd like to face!

You creative types are supposed to know that effect trumps truth (and, besides, the image popped up in my search and was too good not to include)

hmmm, sounds like a rationale for propaganda!!

Actually, I just wanted to post a picture of Busey's caps anyway, very effective and truthful!! ( I do love the Nolte picture anyway...)
