I thought we were supposed to be in FEMA "death" camps by now

Gee go figure...

Another year goes by and none of the ridiculous tyrannical predictions of CTers has come true...

Why isn't Bush still in power after instituting martial law? Why did the Obama FEMA camp round up never happen? Where is the NAU and the Amero? What about the "mass awakening" how is that going?

It couldn't be that the CTers are just spreading lies and made up delusions, could it? No.. they wouldn't do that...

It's a government project so it brings with it government's notorious inefficiency. It's probably over-budget as well. I'm certainly glad I'm not a US citizen I would hate to be shelling out for a project like this.

Platypus, if you're not in a FEMA death camp... then where are you?

GPS coordinates, please. We'll fix the oversight in no time.

No, he is in a Death Camp. It's just that we fashioned it to look remarkably like his house, and his guards were selected for their uncanny resemblance to his wife & kids!

It's a little known fact that all evil government conspiracies will be called off if even a single video revealing their existence is posted on Youtube.

Not to be all pedantic here, but technically, everyone in the Death Camps is there "for life".

You are in a death camp in an America where Bush has installed himself as dictator for life... in some universe. At least according to my research of watching the slow "Sliders" and reading stuff on the internet.

IIRC we were all supposed to be in the FEMA death camps by the time Bush the first took office.
Or was it Regan?
No wait, it was Clinton, right?

We've all been brainwashed into believing we're not in the camps. 10 years ago, some spook spiked my Old Spice with a sooper psychotropic drug and told me what to believe. I actually think I typed this post when in reality I'm festering in a lime-pit somewhere in New Mexico.

Yes, but they're called Death Camps anyway!

War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength.

The CT kooks just want to brush their failed predictions under the rug and pretend they never were made, but I think that their failed loony predictions should be spoken about more. It's a good method of showcasing how ridiculous they are.

I think "Death Camp" has such a negative vibe to it, I think they should re-brand them - I quite like "Life Camp".

How about "Accelerated Life Camp"? Makes it sound all hip and "X-treme" and all that, while not technically lying about its real purpose.

I agree, a similar rebranding worked well for the Canadian gov't when "Unemployment Insurance" became "Employment Insurance".

the only actual change was in letterhead

I have to be quick, I am in the Warden's office (I'm a trustee) using his computer as it has the only DSL internet access (all us prisoners have fiber optic links and droids with full wifi access). This FEMA camp is horrible! I ordered sausage gravy with biscuits for breakfast this morning and it took 20 minutes for the chef to whip it up from scratch!

The pool was closed yesterday on the flimsy excuse that it was 20 degrees F and it is an outside pool (the Olympic sized heated indoor pool was open, but they were having a kegger and it gets pretty noisy).

All this mistreatment along with the come and go as you please, open door prison, huge expense accounts, free flights to anywhere, and the all you can eat buffets is more than this prisoner can take. I'm not going back till truffles are in season.

GWB, after heeding the advice of a mathematician, built a barbed-wire fence around his new home in Preston Hollow, TX, and defined himself to be outside of it.

All the world's thusly a concentration camp now, guarded by the ex-presidential dog.

Nothing to worry about? How about the enormous deficit being created by having these death camps running over-budget for years and years beyond their deadline?

Jesse Ventura, with Alex Jones playing a prominent role, has a new show on this. It is hilarious. I still want to be in the FEMA camp at Sandpoint. Beautiful view of Lake Washington, 18 hole golf course, what more could you want?

It's a government project. Therefore it'll be years late and vastly over-budget; finally the PM will redefine the acceptance criteria so that whatever stage it's then reached will be completion.

This stuff always works best in hindsight. First you wait till something happens, almost anything newsworthy will do, then you represent it as the result of nefarious planning. Predicting the future isn't the forte of CTers.

I first read about the FEMA death camps sometime in the mid '90's after a cow-orker pointed me to them on abovetopsecret. Even for a government project, it's taking a heck of a long time to get done.

HA! Abovetopsecret wasn't created until 1999,so you could not have visited the site in the mid 90's. You are very clearly a FEMA COINTELPRO misinformation agent-provocateur.
