'October Surprise'

It's been awhile since I've heard the phrase 'October Surprise'. According to Wikipedia, it's an American political term that refers to any stunning news event that influences an election. I know the term as it relates to the allegations that Ronald Reagans campaign team made a deal with the Iranians to keep the hostages until Reagan was safely in office. Barbara Honegger used the term in her book of the same title which was the first book to deal with allegations.

Well, it's baaaaaaaaaaack. And in an ominous place. NewsMax is reporting that Karl Rove has promised an 'October surprise' that will help Republicans retain a majority in the House of Representatives and the Senate. NewsMax should be trusted in this case as they are a very right-wing website with proven ties to the Administration. Rove won't say what he's talking about but I, for one, am plenty nervous...perhaps Bush will single-handedly pull Osama out of a cave:)

The Financial Times is reporting that the reason why so many terror suspects were transferred from secret prisons to Guatanamo Bay is the fact that the CIA is 'REFUSING TO OPERATE' said prisons.

This one qualifies as a WOW! Apparently the CIA interrogators are a little nervous about the fact that they may be breaking the law...

Stay Out of Prison and as always,

Stay Naked.
