If Obama finds out the FBI has been using the “terrorism” word, he is going to be mad. Do you think he knows or has he been too busy setting up his 7 television appearances that are scheduled over the next week. Maybe he has been working on his “Top Ten” list for his David Letterman event.
All kidding aside, this is a serious development. Thank God the FBI broke the plot up or we could be facing an even greater disater than 9/11. Stay tuned this is a developing story.
