>I don't. The clip I referenced was from a blog I was reading a couple weeks ago when Iran first started making front page news again.

>The author was basically describing current events and how some were trying to scare the public in order to justify a potential war in Iran.

>>I'd like to know why you're even watching Fox?

>>>I heard the voiceover from a fox news story several weeks ago. It sounded like a scene you would see in a tv movie before the aliens invade. they were talking about iran nuking times square. According to the Fox head in NY, the iranians don't care if we then launch at them since they believe in a muslim armageddon.

>>>>>>I have two questions about the event:
>>>>>>
>>>>>>1. How many people participating in the parade made use of Fast Food establishments or Denny’s on that day? Some places were closed or understaffed. That might aggravate a person when he/she is hungry! :)
>>>>>>
>>>>>>2. How many illegal aliens were waiting to be hired while standing at the driveways of Home Depot on May 1 st ?
>>>>>>
>>>>>>Just curious! :)

>>>>>Was it just here in Sacramento or was traffic considerably lighter everywhere?

>>>>Good question. Everyone I have talked to at work had the same experience.

>>>>I work in Fremont and live in Sunnyvale. At 0600 the traffic was lighter than as if it was a holiday for government employees! It was such a nice commute! Now if it would be like that everyday, we could go back to having hiway 80 and 101 with only two lanes! :)

>>>>Let me see – if the illegal aliens are expelled it will shut down the United States. Iran and North Korea are going to nuke us. There will be no more gasoline at any price. South America has threatened us – specifically Venezuela, Bolivia and Argentina, with Peru climbing on board. The pandemic will kill half of all Americans (legal or otherwise). There will be no Medicare or social security for baby boomers.

>>>>Would you believe these stories from Fox News? I did not make them up. It is just the paranoia we are fed. Well, it is all over so go ahead and die! :)
