I think you're absolutely right. Distract, distract, distract.

I work for the Washington Monument.

So I am really getting a kick out of most of these replies.

Some of you guys are very good at making it sound like you know what you are talking about.

But trust me.... You don't.

I think you just want to make yourself sound smart, when in reality you dont know what you are talking about.

This is how bad info gets passed around.

If you dont know about the topic....Dont make yourself sound like you do.

Cuz some Farkers belive anything they hear.

/obligatory

why the heck would the terrorists target teh monument, isn't that the pointing thing on the front lawn? There's no one in there!

LOL... Bush bad, Bush bad. Must bash Bush.

You can have my Kool-aid when you pry it from my cold... uh...

ORANGE ALERT!
ORANGE ALERT!
ORANGE ALERT!
ORANGE ALERT!

Was it a collect call?

Wow, right after the democrats were chanting 'shame, shame, shame' as the republicans once again subverted democracy in the house.

It's weird how the terrorists always call in these threats while republicans are farking up...

What a retarded target to bomb. Unless they see it as America's penis or something.

looks like I picked the wrong week to stop sniffing glue.

Aw, BFD. Getting up the monument nowadays is such a pain that few tourists go up there. You're hardly likely to hurt anyone with an attack.

I suppose it might be a symbolic target.

But I'd sooner believe some shiathead was looking to get out of work early on a Friday afternoon.

Denzel has a monument?

The caller was beefing up his CV before applying for a job with Al Quaeda.

"Wolf! Wolf!"

Oh, what sad times are these when passing ruffians can say 'terror' and '9/11' at will to old ladies. There is a pestilence upon this land. Nothing is sacred. Even those who arrange and design shrubberies are under considerable economic stress at this period in history.

Jaegs : If you mean the front lawn of the White House, nope. A bit of a distance away.

"why the heck would the terrorists target teh monument, isn't that the pointing thing on the front lawn? There's no one in there!"

Umm, because it's the biggest phallic symbol of the country. It'd be like kicking the U.S. right in the nads.

There is currently a solar powered home building contest going on at the mall right now...somebody doesn't want the public getting wind of the idea of power with fossil fuels.

From TFA... U.S. Park Police Sgt. Scott Fear said the call came in at 2:24 p.m. EDT and the monument was evacuated a short time later.

That's right..keep 'em all skeert

"Every Muslim knows his life is not his, since it belongs to this violated Islamic nation whose blood is being spilled. Nothing should take precedence over this."

I guess telephoning bomb threats is apart of the job description in the article before this.

Don't panic!

So how's that war on terror going?

oooOOOOOOooooooOOOOOOooooo! SCARY!

Phone threat may have been made from one of the metro stations...Tenleytown...video surveillance tapes are getting the once over as we speak. Traffic is all screwed up (and it's raining to boot)...

folks, this is not worrisome.. go back to painting flames on kernels of corn or whatever you get your kicks from these days.

What's with the bomb threats today? Some asshole called in one to the Stones concert last night. Took em 58 minutes (yes, we were that bored) to move people out, send in the dogs, and move em back in. Would've gladly strangled the guy who did it.

So did you come here just to beat your chest about where your paycheck comes from or did you have something to contribute to this thread?

Valmaxian: I work for the Washington Monument.

Your profile says you're in Anaheim.

I sure hope I get that TV job with Al Qaeda Then I can document these things as they happen.
Plus I can video tape sex with sweet sweet burka-ed women.

Also enough with the
"I work _________(insert name from article)" posts they are not remotely funny or interesting.

I work for the FBI.

So I am really getting a kick out of most of these replies.

None of you guys are very good at making it sound like you know what you are talking about.

Trust me.... you don't.

I think you just want to make yourself sound smart, that you work for the Washington Monument, when in reality you dont, and you know what you are talking about.

This is how bad info, and bad gas gets passed around.

If you dont know about the topic....Dont make yourself sound like you do.

Cuz some Farkers believe anything they hear. Some will even eat paste if you tell them it tastes good.

Valmaxian: If you dont know about the topic....Dont make yourself sound like you do.

Tom? Is that you? Tell Katie I said 'hi.'

That's it, blow Washington's nose... he's had the sniffles for a while.

looks like I picked the wrong week to stop sniffing glue.


Mob Barley, I still have a drinking problem.

Beemer: Your profile says you're in Anaheim.

"Cuz some Farkers belive anything they hear.": check.

Takes me back to good 'ol college test day.

Yep you're right, Bush only needed .5 more rating points so he called this one in personally....rofl more comments to make my day

You must be new around here...

Evidently, you are!

This thread is useless without pics...

I don't understand a 'bomb threat.' If the person were truly a terrorist, wouldn't he bomb without warning?

What a boring target. Visited it once. I guess I could live without it.

Apparently the "All Clear" has been given...

but people are still falling for it Feltonl!
