banned grenade

BLINKY STUFF
* foxnews is captioning the blinky-in-the-baltics trip "freedom trip"

* watching blinky speak about democracy and freedom (in georigia this time) makes me feel dirty and scared

* according to this, wonkette was the only person to originally report on laurabush's horse-wankerer joke

* "The Secret Service was investigating a report Tuesday that a hand grenade was thrown at the stage during President Bush's speech in the former Soviet republic of Georgia.
After Bush left Georgia on Tuesday, the Secret Service was informed by Georgian authorities of a report that a device, possibly a hand grenade, had been thrown within 100 feet of the stage during Bush's speech, hit someone in the crowd and fell to the ground, Secret Service spokesman Jonathan Cherry said."

i dont believe this story. for starters, theres a problem that if one person was packing, and throwing, a grenade, then there may have been others (people and/or grenades) - so u think they'd inform the secretservice as quickly as possible. secondly, if u were gonna assassinate a president, you'd think you'd wanna be able to get closer than 100ft... i dont know the purpose of the story - but it doesnt quite seem legit.
