regarding polls and the similarities and differences between 2000 and 2004,
one of the things it spoke of was
" (Some cynics are already predicting what 2004's October Surprise will be:
Osama bin Laden, conveniently captured the weekend before the vote. But
warnings that terrorists may try to disrupt the election have forced
political strategists to consider this macabre question: What would happen
if there was another September 11th? Much would depend on the nature of a
preelection attack. Some argue that a terrorist strike immediately before
the election would spark Americans to rally 'round the president, similar to
the way they did after 9/11. If it came further out, Kerry might be helped,
as it would give him time to question why the administration failed to
protect the country from another attack.) "
After seeing Farenheit 9/11 again last night I am wondering if bin Laden
might be trying to give his buddy a boost?
With all the documented ties between Saudi Arabia and the Bush Family and
also the bin Ladens I do wonder.

Subject: Re:Look Out New York!!
After giving no coverage to the incidents of hundreds of young male
Arab-speaking illegals crossing into the US in the Arizona Area recently,
Fox
News is pushing the panic button over a scheduled unprecedented news
conference
called on Sunday by DHS Secretary, Tom Ridge, referring to increasing
threats in
the NYC Area.
Not only does the DHS do absolutely nothing about the illegal immigrants in
the
US, but are still (even three years after 9/11) are still releasing into
the
interior even those illegals that have been rounded up.
The policy of capturing illegals, taking them to booking, where they are
given a
court date and then released, is still a policy that is one of the gut
causes of
the illegal problems in the US today. It is still treated much as a
misdemeanor
traffic stop. Of course the illegals so relapsed never show up for the
hearings
and go about their business with impunity.
Now (Note, no elevation in threat alert status) it is reported that another
attack is imminent on New York City, possibly coinciding with the Republican
National Convention.
Unfortunately the credibility factor of this administration has sunk to such
a
low, that the conspiracy theorists have commented that all this is just more
to
add the fear factor to the re-election effort, or possibly arranging an
incident
or two to bolster this.
No wonder the Kerry Polls (nytimes) currently show a 54-48 lead over Bush.
