Journal RY's Journal: Terror warning stupidity

One of the news stories I read that just does not add up. FUD. From a news story at http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,1101040705-658292,00.html

The Sell

"there's very serious intelligence that's corroborated, that's multiple sourced, that indicates that al-Qaeda is intent on hitting us and hitting us hard this year."

The Disclamer

"we don't have specific information."

The information below sounds specific...

The Sell

Along with this now familiar general warning, the FBI has introduced the specter of a new terrorism threat: booby-trapped beer coolers

Sounds like the biggest danger is to the free beer crowd. "Buba, run down and grab that floating cooler it may have free beer". ' Bubba grabs cooler, BOOM, pink mist clears,' Damm that beer has a kick.

The Disclamer.

FBI and Department of Homeland Security officials say no such devices have actually been discovered, nor is there any current intelligence that terrorists are hatching plots involving floating bombs

There are morons working for the media and government.
