That Failed Times Square Car Bomb

From the London Times:

"US authorities said they were treating the failed bombing , described as a “one-off” by Janet Nappolitano, the Home Security Secretary, as a potential terrorist attack, but said there was no evidence of a continued threat to New York.

Police released a photograph of the dark-colored SUV as it crossed an intersection at 6:28 p.m. Saturday. Two street vendors pointed the SUV out to a police officer about two minutes later after they noticed smoke coming from the Pathfinder, which had been parked haphazardly with its engine running and its hazard lights flashing.

Times Square was evacuated for ten hours as police defused the bomb and searched nearby streets for other possible explosives."
Crittenden has the obvious narrative:
"But as is the fashion, I’m going to guess. In the interests of political correctitude, I’m going with a homegrown right-wing fringe Tea Party racist nut case named Mohammed."
He also has a blog-o-sphere round of other punditry, including a Jawa claim that "South Park" was the target of this amateur bomb attempt?

I blame the Obama administration's climate of fear and divisiveness. 'Natch.
