They've been kind of sluggish cranking these out since last year but they really can't help themselves:

I think the Times Square car bomb was designed to fail
 I don't know why, but it just seems that he did everything wrong. Either he's really stupid or it was on purpose.

Who would benefit if that were the case? What possible motives could there have been?

I'm worried it might have been a distraction of sorts for
 another, more serious attempt.

2. Too many things went wrong here
 He's supposedly a registered democrat but he read for his Masters degree at Moonie university. Nothing adds up.
Maybe the plan was for him to escape to embarrass Obama et al.

6. you don't have to actually blow things up to terrorize them
 You just have to point out their vulnerability, especially if they've already experienced terror.

Several "unsuccessful" terror attempts have been made -- ones reeking of amateurity.

Someone wants to remind America to be scared.

Obviously the CIA has grown soft under Panetta. They just aren't willing to kill thousands of Americans like in the good ol' days.

But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

That chicken wire WTC experiment almost blew the lid on the whole thing. The CIA is being cautious now.

I have been waiting for some sooper dooper genius at the DUmp to say that he was a right wing plant that used a bomb similar to Oklahoma in design so as to make everyone think it was a conservative but then when it turns out to be an arab it causes embarrassment to the left.  :rotf:

Carl, who was it who years ago made it onto the Rush show with his comment about how the Dems lost on purpose or something like that?  This was before my time.  It was the looniest thing ever, and it would be right in line with what you just said.

So the guy was a member of the DUmp?

In the below-linked article, the author says that the bomber was openly critical of President Bush.
