on the muslim issue:
it looks like a pc view on the surface, but
the show shows what happens when americans trust and don’t verify as the muslim boy turns out to really be a terrorist.

also, a muslim terrorist does help jack but he is a cold blooded killer. jack recognizes that but uses “the enemy of my enemy is my friend” logic and saves him.

karen is a lib but oh well. she’ll see the error of her ways when a major bomb goes off.

As I just noted here (and elsewhere), I wish I hadn’t missed this evening’s premier.

But more significantly, I wish that ‘24′ wasn’t a time frame that had to be adhered to, in real life, time and time again.

1. I would be unnerved about the head of CTU speaking Arabic if it were not common for terrorism experts and other agents to have skills in another language, especially the language of the bad guys they follow.
2. She spent too much time with Clinton
3. He needed a piece of tail and since he is always working he can get a little in the janitor’s closet.
4. Sure, why not.

Now, here is my question. Is it just me or did it seem like Fox was trying to smooth over the Muslim/Terrorist angle by having a Muzzie help Jack?

And why don’t they listen to him in the first place?

I’ve seen the first four episodes and while I have him set as my homepage, let me just say that Drudge has thoroughly screwed it up for a lot of folks. Yeah, he gave away the suprise (it’s not full scale nuclear, though….the dirty type).

FYI, it’s gonna be awesome, baby.

Besides, they already set off a full scale nuke in season 2, IIRC, in the NV desert.

Jack Bauer is the baddest mofo alive, and at the end of the first hour (about half an hour from this writing) you will say “DAMN!!! HE really IS the toughest man around!”
