Update: Second Envelope Sent to Manchester, NH Office
Breaking: McCain's Denver Office Receives Envelope Containing White Powder, Threat
More: DKos Diarist Wins Olympic Gold By Shattering Previous Record for Questioning Timing By 88.2 Seconds

Of course it's 99.9% likely a hoax, and 99.8% likely domestic and by an idiot who's not even organized enough to be decent at crude criminality, but there you go.

Rewrote... to clear up badly misleading wording that suggested that McCain himself "received" the letter. He didn't. It was opened by a poor staffer.

UPDATE: Timing Successfully Questioned by DKos.

On a day when McCain shows his true elitist reality, not knowing how many houses he owns, the Republican has two personal attack adds and an Anthrax scare as a response.
Think about that. Squelch. This is straight up Psy-Ops. But I think the white powder story is to obvious to be viewed as a coincidence. I believe there will be a backlash.
C'mon, McFailure is finally getting hammered "emotionally" by Obama and "Oh, shit, break out the Anthrax." Man they are transparent. It's clearly some wag the dog bullshit.

So, uhhhh.... The mailer knew McCain would make the number-of-homes gaffe two days ago when he placed the letters in the mail?

Is he suggesting McCain's gaffe was pre-planned? If that was the plan, to cover the gaffe with the fake anthrax... um, why not just avoid the gaffe in the first place?

Reaity-based. Layers.

Thanks to Hollowpoint.

3 Exactly, cue the conspiracy theorists: he did it to himself to gain sympathy and remind people of the threat of terrorism.

9 I actually wouldn't be too surprised if a left wing nut along the lines of Deb Frisch would go so far as to try to scare campaign volunteers with an anthrax death threat. There are ACTUAL terrorists who love Obama. There are plenty of people on DU who would attack Mccain for real if they knew they could get away with it. I imagine behind the scenes Bush has also been a target many times.

Would a right winger do it to garner sympathy? It seems possible, but it's so comically obvious that I doubt it.

I see no reason for Mccain not to use this politically, given that Ayers is beginning to come back into the news. Obama must codemn liberal terrorism, such as the potential attack on Mccain's life, and Obama's long time buddy Ayers, and the like.

And that's the excuse they'll use to "question the timing". At least when they're not accusing McCain of starting the Georgia/Russia conflict, cheating on an unwatched debate, or making up anectdotes cribbed from non-existant books.

Consider the timing officially questioned:

On a day when McCain shows his true elitist reality, not knowing how many houses he owns, the Republican has two personal attack adds and an Anthrax scare as a response.

Think about that. Squelch. This is straight up Psy-Ops. But I think the white powder story is to obvious to be viewed as a coincidence. I believe there will be a backlash.

C'mon, McFailure is finally getting hammered "emotionally" by Obama and "Oh, shit, break out the Anthrax." Man they are transparent. It's clearly some wag the dog bullshit.

Also savor the rich flavor of irony in an Obama supporter accusing McCain of being an elititst and being "hammered emotionally".

Posted by: Hollowpoint at August 21, 2008 06:25 PM (plsiE)

12 Hollowpoint: I almost want them to question the timing. They've blown that gag. No one is going to believe that Mccain did this, so I want many Obama supporters to assert he did. Let's see how that affects Obama. He has too many psychos in his campaign who cannot help themselves. One misstep on this will make all the difference in the world.

9/11 truthers don't help elect Democrats, they help elect Republicans. Moveon didn't hurt Petraus, they helped him. Dan Rather didn't stop Bush, he stopped Dan Rather.

Posted by: ghy at August 21, 2008 06:28 PM (8jYMc)

13 and of course, if it were a real attack, it wouldn't be fake Anthrax.

the level of psycho in the message you quote is exactly what I'm talking about when I say it's completely plausible that a liberal college student would send something like this. Their ridiculous paranoia... in military terms like 'psy-ops', is basically them noting that Mccain, to them, is a legitimate military target.

Posted by: ghy at August 21, 2008 06:31 PM (8jYMc)

17 Back in the day when I smoked and inhaled, me and my buds would come up with all sorts of answers to or questions for the issues of the day after partaking. These whackadoos are doing essentially the same thing.

Posted by: Ken at August 21, 2008 07:19 PM (sISAL)

this shit depresses me. Those goddam conniving Dems are going to blow the election and then all the up and coming financial malaise and shit will get hung around Mc's neck and believe you me that goddamn albatross will take TIME to rot and fall off. Are Dems are going to win the long game by losing this one? Because jump forward 2 years and then you'll absolutely know it would have been sooooo much better if Flash Master Hope-n-change had won the election and was reppn da set. If things are going to suck, we ought to at least do it right and be able to blame the libs.

Posted by: LF Mayor at August 21, 2008 07:20 PM (AkPCZ)

Yes. Question the timing, because exactly 101% of every law-enforcement agency, McCain campaign staff, government officials that will investigate this matter ARE IN ON THE CONSPIRACY. There is not one single solitary non-satanic soul in that bunch who would pierce the coverup to tell the truth.

Not one.

You, Kossack, are the last remaining honest person in all of America.

21 And those ideas we'd come up with made so much logical sense, while buzzed, that we were just so sure it was true and there was no other answer. Of course, when the buzz wore off we had no idea what the hell we had discussed prior.

How can this be? Because Karl Rove is the Kwisatz Haderach. No seriously, look at the similarities there's a K, an R, and an A in both.

Plans within plans.

We all know that the Karl Haderach transcends the space time continuum, and he's working for McCain.

Posted by: Allen at August 21, 2008 09:20 PM (Zo7G6)

35 Yes people, John McCain was so aware he was to make a Housing Gaffe he finagled a Colorado prison inmate to send a fake anthrax hoax and possibly contracted another wackado to work on the New Hampshire operation

A government official said a letter sent to the office of the presumptive Republican presidential nominee near Denver contained powder, but was being treated as a hoax and was believed to have been sent by an inmate at a nearby jail in Arapahoe County.

The letter sent to the office in New Hampshire did not contain powder, but rose suspicions of staffers who were jittery after the Denver area office received its letter.

Secret Service spokesman Eric Zahren said the two letters are unrelated.

Next fluid conspiracy theory (as the Goalposts must be lugged out to distant positions)

McCain made the housing gaffe on purpose in order to tempt Obama to bite on said gaffe in order to role out the obvious, yet negative reply ads.

Posted by: topsecretk9 at August 21, 2008 09:36 PM (lpZZ3)

Hmmm.....Hopfully they are testing that envelope for Ayers DNA.

Once an unrepentant terrorist, always an unrepentant terrorist.

I once knew an unrepentant rapist, he was an upstanding individual that helped get me where I am today.

Oh, and I strongly denounce him and his actions.

There....all better.
