This is from USA Today:

"The Rocky Mountain News reports that Black Hawk helicopters buzzed downtown Denver and other neighborhoods Monday evening in a training exercise for a possible terrorist attack. It says several choppers flew low near Coors Field during a home game of the Colorado Rockies.

The newspaper quotes Lt. Nathan Potter, with Special Operations Command, as saying Special Ops teams were training with local authorities. He did not elaborate, but said it had nothing to do with preparations for the Democratic National Convention, which will be held in Denver in August.

"It's routine preparation for the global war on terrorism," he said.

Potter added that Special Operations Command has also been conducting similar exercises in other cities."

It's that last phrase that caught my eye. I googled Blackhawk, downtown and special ops training, but the only story was about Denver. So... *what* other cities?

Yeah, this is why people are so suspicious of it. There's no reports of it happening anywhere else. How the hell can something that's not happened anywhere before be considered routine? I'm pretty sure the ring of power is here and they're just out to keep it safe.

Ring of Power? Does that mean that Cheney is the Witch King of Agmar?
