Does
President Bush Have The Right To Kill A Terrorist On Our Soil?
You bet your sweet BIPPY!...
[by
Patrick Hurley] 2/7/06
Sometimes
I think we have lost our minds in this country.
When we
have to debate something so nonsensical as the intent of a
terrorist trying to destroy our republic, maybe we deserve
to be attacked. The argument that our national leader has to
legally wait until a bomb or any other kind of explosive device,
whether it be in the air or on the ground, is actively planned before we can move in and take out its terrorist creator is
ludicrous. In the interest of truth, freedom and the American
way just imagine this scenario:
“Hi,
uh, Mr. Atta, I am Francis Flummox from the FBI and this is
special agent Hobbs and we had a tip that you were possibly
making a bomb to blow up sections of Washington D.C. and before
we killed you, we wanted to make certain that it was true.
May we come in?”

“Certainly.
I am an American citizen and I love my new country. I go to
university. I pay taxes. I just finished flight school in Florida.
I like strip clubs. Come in, please.”
(As the agents
are let inside they are taken down to the basement and shown
several tables with explosive paraphernalia on them. The agents
carefully examine them)
“Now,
Atta, this stuff looks like bomb material to me. Can you clarify
what it is so we don’t have to shoot you on the spot
with our silencers?”
“Not
to worry, FBI man! This is harmless. I am helping my son with
his science project.”
“Your
son, huh? This stuff looks pretty sophisticated for high school
science.”
“Oh,
no, he is in the fourth grade. He is smart pretty…smart.”
“I
see, Atta. So, these containers of ammonium nitrate and these
timing devices…”
“To
demonstrate power of science.”
“And,
these huge bins of fertilizer?”
“Science
FARM project.”
“And,
these cartons of box cutters?”
“To
slice the sheep…wool.”
“Uh
huh, and this timing clock and briefcase with the large rectangular
hole in it?
“Son
always late for school.”
“What
about this map here of Washington D.C. with the White House
and the Capitol building highlighted in yellow?”
“Sightseeing
trip planned for wife and me. We love to visit ACLU building,
too.”
“Hmm,
is that why you have the flight coordinates listed here, too?”
“Oh,
we…parasail.”
“Well,
I will tell the Director to relay to our President that you
are not a threat, then.”
“Fine,
fine. And, tell him me and my friends appreciate the legal
system in this great land of your…er, ours.”
“We
will, Atta. Are you sure you are not making a bomb?’
“I
am quite sure. I have to go pray now that my son will get an “A” on
his project. By the way, have you heard they are easing restrictions
on airport security? I think that is good thing.”
“Yes,
well, we have to get back to our normal lives. Good day, sir.
We appreciate not having to destroy you. Good luck on your
project.”
There you
have it. Just another day in the life of the President of the
United States and his intelligence community making certain
our laws are followed faithfully so we do not discriminate
or harm anyone who is trying to reside peacefully in this great
country of ours. Because, in the final analysis, we would never
want to do anything improper until we have absolute proof that
a terrorist living within our borders is truly a threat to
our existence. Thanks to the all the liberal do-gooders out
there, our own President is limited to what he can and cannot
do to protect American citizens. He is forced to play by different
rules from the cowardly murderers of 9/11…
And, that
is why we may see another one of their science projects in
our history someday. -one-
