Rank Insanity
John Hawkins at Right Wing News has a post up that will blow your mind. He put on his hip waders and explored the fever swamp at Daily Kos to extract a "recommended diary" that discloses the Koz Kidz views of why the arrests were made in Miami. The conclusion? The arrests were made solely to distract people's attention from John Kerry's attempt to pass his bravely run away™ amendment. Here's the Kozzies:
In the same week that two Democratic resolutions forced the Bush and the GOP into the defensive by focusing attention on their incompetent management of the Iraq war, can we at least not be skeptical that this isn't an attempt by the Bush Administration to to change the focus away from Iraq?
Alberto Gonzales will be having a press conference. He'll say how grave a threat it was and will say once again we should give Bush everything he wants to pursue the "War on Terror" – NSA domestic spying, Iraq, and OUR OBEDIENCE.
Don't fall for it.
…Timeline of a Political Setup
Ok, now I'm going to get serious because this is the part that's truly dangerous.
Don't get me wrong, those kids – use your common sense – could've hurt somebody and needed attention, BUT they didn't need the damn FBI.
Put them in juvenile detention & de-program them. Or hell, send them to Chicago's Southside. Trust me – the locals would've straightened these "terrorists" real quick.
No, these seven were just fleas.
As John puts it:
To begin with, arresting terrorists has now been reduced to some sort of political trick? Why? Because the threat wasn't "imminent." Does that mean that the FBI should have waited until they were driving a truck bomb towards the Sears Tower and screaming, "Jihad! Jihad! Jihad!," out the windows to react? In the minds of Kossacks, I guess so.
And the point of this "distraction" is supposed to be to keep people from noticing that John Kerry is self-immolating in the Senate by offering a politically motivated proposal to cut and run from Iraq?
Just to display how in touch with reality the author of this piece of illumination is, the suspects who were arrested ranged in age from 22 to 32 years old. Just kids to be put in juvenile detention.
I think the Koz Krazy just showed who the juvenile is.
Go read what John has to say, he rants real good.

A link about the HuffPo blogger who got kicked out for tracking down a troll who turned out to be one of Arianna’s top techies led me over to KosTown, where one of the inmates called HuffPo “the Jerry Springer Show on the Internet.”
I almost broke a rib laughing so hard at the whole ‘pot/kettle’ aspect. Between those two joints and Atrios’s whack shack the level of lunacy beats anything on TV, YouTube, FARK,….

"The Miami Seven aren't Muslims.By Gaius, June 24, 2006 @ 8:18 am
Broken link, Barbara. I assume you were trying to link to the assertion by CAIR that the accused are not Muslims. Which is completely irrelevant to any post I have made on the subject, I believe. That would negate part of the assertions on the above diary, though.

The last “update” on that diary entry shows the picture of the seven whacKos with the comments:
What an evil genius Rove must truly be, not only did he get to take our eyes off of the Cut’n'run legislation of John “I served in Vietnam” Kerry, buth emanaged to oppress some black people as well. A Twofer! Sheesh.

Yeah, it’s bad.
