Cops Stop Car Bomb From Exploding in Times Square

oh good heaven, must you mentiion "Democrat?!?!" Obama said justice will be done and we arrested over 9 people already and Eric Holden declares the incident a terrorist plot intending to kill Americans.

Swift!

What more could you ask for?!!?!
 
Good. Though note the irony that Mayor Bloomberg in the very beginning was hoping the terrorist was an older 40s, white male, disgruntled Tea Party protester about the Health Care thing (i.e. "homegrown"). And when the arrest came the person turns out to be a Pakistani-American, a U.S. naturalized citizen.

KATIE COURIC: Law enforcement officials don't know who left the Nissan Pathfinder behind, but, at this point, the mayor believes the suspect acted alone.

MAYOR MICHAEL BLOOMBERG: If I had to guess -- 25 cents -- this would be exactly that, somebody-

COURIC TO BLOOMBERG: A home-grown?

BLOOMBERG: Home-grown, maybe a mentally deranged person or somebody with a political agenda that doesn't like the health care bill or something. It could be anything.

Let me get to the ironic part. After the arrest, much to his dismay, here's what the Mayor said:
“And I want to make clear that we will not tolerate any bias or backlash against Pakistani or Muslim New Yorkers."

Tolerate? Bias? Backlash? Just exactly what was Bloomberg doing in his interview with Katie Couric then? What a moron he is.
 
still obsessing about Tea Party? :dunno:
 
CONTESSA BREWER (7:06): I mean the thing is is that and I get frustrated and there was part of me that was hoping this was not going to be anybody with ties to any kind of Islamic country because there are a lot of people who want to use this terrorist intent to justify writing off people who believe in a certain way or come from certain countries or whose skin color is a certain way. I mean they use it as justification for really outdated bigotry.

And so there was part of me was really hoping this would not be the case that here would be somebody who is not the defined. I mean he’s accused he’s arrested you know I don’t want to convict him before it’s time to do so. He’s the guy authorities say is involved. But that being said I mean we know even in recent history you have the Haitari militia from Michigan who have plans to let’s face it create terror.

That’s what they were planning to do and they were doing so from far different backgrounds then what this guy is coming from. So, the threat is not just coming from people who decide that America is the place to be and you know come here and want to become citizens. Obviously this guy did.

The mayor and now this MSNBC’s Contessa Brewer hoping it'd be an angry Tea Party protester instead of somebody else with ties to an Islamic country? How long til people actually understand this sort of attacks will not stop regardless of how nice Teh One wants to be?
 
The suspect, Faisal Shahzad, a 30 year-old Pakistani-American (and a Democrat?), was arrested for the attempted bombing in Times Square. He almost got away, too. In the process of his arrest two other people were taken off the plane as well.

I have nothing against the mayor but he had nothing to do with the failure of the guy's bombing attempt.

Mayor Bloomberg along with NYPD Commissioner are responsible for NYC's safety. These massive police appearance everywhere, sergeant drill (weekly drills of dozens of police cars mobilizing from point A to point B) and vigilance are his on-going work.
