1. Why aren't they always ready?? Isn't that what their job is? If
they are not going to raise the color thingy, why come out spouting nonsense?

3. We don't know who, when, where, or the nature of the attack
That's what they always say. Isn't it convenient that this startling announcement occurs when Bush is tanking in the polls. Ridge isn't acting like he is afraid.

17. AAAAHHHHRRRGGG!
When will a reporter stand up and ask

"Isn't this all a bunch of bullshit to divert attention away from Bush and Enron and the excitement John K and John E. are generating?"

23. Someone kind of tried... asking WHY they were doing this NOW.
He gave some crap about how they'd been planning it for a long time, ever since the Madrid bombings.... yawn

Somewhere, someday, somehow... you 300 million people have something to be VERY afraid of...

It's better that way... otherwise they could only scare a few million at a time.

19. That's cool... CNN just split the screen to show the Kerry/Edwards rally
from last night that I attended. Woohooo! Don't TELL me they're actually trying to sneak in a little news on the side of this pompous bullshit.

24. Uh, um, well...
uh, no provisions in place yet. (paraphrasing)

BTW, good for Daryl. She just said, "This doesn't look like anything we haven't heard before."

Ooh, Jim Walsh is telling it like it is.

26. BOY! It sure sounds like
psychological conditioning to me. Of course, if I trusted Ridge or any of the other team players, then, maybe there could remotely resemble some credibility in what he says. That would be quite remote.

He really didn't say anything substantial. Why the media heartbeat? Stay tuned to see and hear how the American people are "approximated" to a comfort level to accept the next "rung" on the ladder. Nothing Ridge said consisted of anything that hadn't been announced before----NO SPECIFICS!


?????????????????????????????

27. If there is (God Forbid) another attack stateside, does the country
rally behind Bush again, or do they start looking to Kerry-Edwards as the leadership that will prevent the next one?

34. They are so FREAKING transparent
with this bullshit. They keep saying at alQaida is targeting the elections ("like happened in Madrid") and they're implying that if someone other than the current administration is elected then the bad guys will have won. "They're trying to influence the elections" means that any outcome other than the status quo is "their" doing. Makes me gag.:puke:
