"Shame on him for not duct taping all the windows and making a ’safe’
room like everyone in Indianapolis did. This is the cornerstone to
good ‘merican fear politics. Especially when you’ve just bought a
boatload of cheap 3M options" Borat says at 6:25 pm, July 14th, 2008

Seven years on, no answer from White House on anthrax attacks
It's been almost seven years since — in the weeks immediately
following 9/11 — anthrax powder sent through the mail killed five
people, threatened the lives of two Democratic senators, terrorized
the entire nation, and helped prod a panicky Congress into passing the
so-called Patriot Act.

More Air Power for Afghanistan
http://blog.wired.com/defense/2008/07/more-air-power.html
By Noah Shachtman July 08, 2008
America may not have any extra ground forces to send to Afghanistan.
But it can still call in more air power. Unnamed "defense officials"
tell CNN that the aircraft carrier USS Abraham Lincoln "has moved
from the Persian Gulf into the Gulf of Oman so its warplanes can fly
missions over Afghanistan."
The nuclear-powered, 97,500-ton ship carries more than 90 aircraft,
including the latest models of the F/A-18 E/F Super Hornet. It's the
ship where President Bush made his now-infamous "Mission Accomplished"
landing in 2003.
