Four Year Old Sam Adams Called Terrorist by Bob Woodward

An Ed-E-torial

(Washington, D.C.) Four-year-old Sam Adams, recently stopped from boarding a United Airlines flight in San Diego because his name matches a Sam Adams on the Transportation Security Administrations' "no-fly" list, might just be a terrorist, according to Bob Woodward. "The kid claims he likes fire trucks," said Woodward. "Yeah…blown-up fire trucks."

The noted investigative reporter, who is either pro or con George Bush depending on what book deal is pending, makes the claim against Adams in the proposal of his latest book, "Fisher-Price Fatwah," which was leaked on Galley Cat. The premise of Woodward's book is that Muslim extremists have sleeper cells in hundreds of day-care centers across the United States and not only is little Adams a member but may be a cell leader.

In order to defend his position and increase the bidding war on the proposal, Woodward called a press conference. And although much of the press conference cannot be reproduced here, since the transcript of the conference is already being negotiated by Woodward's agent for a new book, reporters were able to divulge the reasons for Woodward's abject fear of the four year old. "I could only trace the history of this, allegedly harmless, Sam Adams back four years. Where was he before that?" When that question was challenged by a reporter with, "he's four, before that he wasn't born." Woodward replied, "Exactly…exactly."

Woodward believes that "the under 5 age group represents the greatest possible threat for future terror strikes. I call it 'toddler terrorism'." When asked for a time frame for these strikes, Woodward estimated "about 20-21 years." This time when a reporter countered that this would make the alleged "toddler terrorist" an adult, Woodward did concede. "Please note that I said 'possible' threat.'"

Woodward then warned reporters, "toddler terrorism is something you all are going to become very aware of because I had it trademarked, and my business manager is in negotiations with Russell Simmons to introduce a Baby Phat "Toddler Terrorism" line of throwbacks.

The famed journalist then pointed to the poster behind him of alleged toddler terrorist Sam Adams and admonished it, "not on my watch and as long as my agent can keep selling these book proposals."

    four year old boy is not likely to be the terrorist on your list. Also the this little boy most likely would not know what a terrorist is. So where has the common sense gone when applying or relying on these lists. At least I would most sincerely hope not. My last thought on this is.........Shame on you Bob Woodward for using Sam as a platform to launch your book. This Sam Addams has lost some of his rights, and you Bob Woodward are forunate that your name is not on some terrorist list!

    I'm sorry, but really has Bob Woodward lost his mind!!! Is he that needy for money, that he would make himself look like a complete idiot. Also, for the press to go, and make him press worthy is beyond my understanding. I know that in the United States of America, you have freedom of the press, but when you use this right, you are all so proud of.... to give this person (Bob Woodward) a chance to spout this kind of literary garbage. Not withstanding that a four year old boy could not fly on a plane, because his name happened to be on a terrorist list. Get a grip on reality people, he is a four year old boy and that is that. I truly feel bad for this little boy, because when he grows up, he will forever be trying to justify his rights, because some where, some how, his name........ but not his name...... ended up on a terrorist list. My last thought on this is.... Who was the person in charge at the airport? Who would stop this little boy from flying. I would think that in this case, a
