"HOPING FOR THE RIGHT KIND OF TERRORIST"
Read Jonah Goldberg over at The Corner. Hizzoner Michael Bloomberg, by the Grace of God Mayor of NYC and the Bloomberg Channel, described the suspect in the video of the Times Square SUV as a white male. NBC is reporting the arrest of an American citizen as he attempted to board a plane to Dubai. The suspect is of Pakistani origin. It was seems Hizzoner, like the DHS secretary, seems to think the most likely terrorists are anyone but the most likely suspects: those of an extremist Muslim persuasion.

I wonder if that poor white guy who was taking off his jacket will be the next Richard Jewel?
