The bridge is currently shut down and everyone’s on their Ps and Qs. Please not be a bomb, please not be a bomb … (Update: Reuters says it’s not a bomb. Just a scare, nothing more.) source

World: Jihad Jane not an isolated incident. Just ask Jamie Paulin-Ramirez.

  • He said that Christians will burn in hellfire. That’s what they are teaching this baby.
  • Christine Mott • Grandmother of a boy whose mother, Jamie Paulin-Ramirez, fell in with an Islamic terrorist cell that was plotting to kill a Swedish cartoonist. Paulin-Ramirez, who’s from Colorado, was arrested in Ireland on Tuesday along with a bunch of other members of that group, which also included “Jihad Jane” among its membership. She was later released. When you’ve lost housewives from Colorado and precocious six-year-old boys to radical Islam, much is wrong with this world. source
