Yahoo: Ridge Says Warning Was Not Political
Can it be that the media is FINALLY getting the spunk to ask some of the right questions?

http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/ap/ridge_convention_security

"Homeland Security Secretary Tom Ridge said Wednesday the warnings he gave the public last week about a possible terror attack before the elections have nothing to do with politics.

'We don't do politics at Homeland Security,' Ridge said at a news conference, adding that the department's job is to transmit credible information to the public. Those who suggest otherwise have reached 'rather cynical' conclusions, he said."

4. But Ascroft does do politics...and left Ridge out last time, remember?
Now Ridge took the leadership.
Let's see who wins next time.
