Updated II: I have a problem with..the Fort Dix “terror plot”

 UPDATE II: ahhhh well I keep reading and I keep getting vindicated.  I hate it when I’m right, I really do….If you remember reading this post, I asked how smart could these idiots have been if they couldn’t even figure out how to convert a video to a dvd. Well they are so tactical it seems that they went to a local Circuit City to find out how. Geeeeee, sounds like some real “masterminds” at work doesn’t it?

The FBI learned of the alleged plot when the men went to a Circuit City store and asked a clerk to transfer a jihad training video of themselves onto a DVD. Also, they mistakenly thought an AK-47 costs $500, instead of $1,500 to $3,000.

Also, one of the men, Tatar, called a Philadelphia police officer in November, saying that he had been approached by someone who was pressuring him to obtain a map of Fort Dix, and that he feared the incident was terrorist-related, according to court documents.

uh-huh, terrorists that call the police. Hmmm masterminds indeed.

I have a question.

Who are we at "war" with right now?  This is a serious question (for a change).  I would really like to see what you the readers think. (yes even you visitor's…

UPDATE: Is Delaware Housing Really not affordable?

UPDATE IV: Apparently throwing out the Delawareliberal website has some pull in this state!  Wooohoooo.  I got a call back from Jeanine Kliemo herself. 

To her knowledge their were NO exclusions.  The data is from the county board of Realtors. 

She is quoted with saying, “I have no reason to believe that there was any exclusions, but it is their data”

Thanks Mrs. Kliemo! 

Their you have it people, it appears all housing prices were used for this study, which will certainly skew the numbers and make it look like housing is not affordable for those lower-income families seeking residence in Delaware.  You have to love statistics.  Why on earth they would roll out this huge study whining about home prices yet include homes with values in the multi-million dollar range is beyond me and disingenuous. 

This article is bullshit.  The study is using misleading numbers to boot.  I have a liberal heart that bleeds for a lot of people, but I draw the line here…
Affordable housing sought
Report shows many Delawareans unable to pay for a place to live

The march was timed with the release of a report by the Delaware Housing Coalition that found only 36 percent of Delawareans earn the $60,000 required to afford the state’s typical home price of $228,000.

I have a question about this study they did:

 1. did they exclude the top 1% homes that no one in God’s green earth could afford?  For Example, Beach homes on the water, Greenville, WestOver Hills.  (updated information indicates it was not)

2. Did they forget that we have a City by the Name of Wilmington?

3. They didn’t say they want safe and affordable did they?

 More than 100 affordable housing advocates marched to Legislative Hall on Wednesday in an effort to draw attention — and money — to the shortage of economical housing in the state.
