Democrats should call for end of color-coded fear....
This was mentioned on the Abrams Show on MSNBC last night by the host. And it makes sense. We do not need these color codes to keep us informed. They unnecessariy instill fear. People know what happened on 9/11. They do not need a daily reminder.

This could be the first step to returning our nation to some type of normalcy from these paranoid and war-mongering times we are presently enduring. I would like to see Kerry make the proposal to do away with these codes. They serve no useful purpose.

1. Good for Dan!
Those color-codes were so obviously a Homeland Security ploy.

Homeland Security? Sounds like something out of '1984' (20 years late ... well, he was pretty darn close!).

3. Yeah but how will I know how scared to be?
I mean without colors, I'll have to guess how scared to be, what If I guess wrong?

No, I theink we need the secuirty of knowing exactly how pannicky and nervous we should be. Remember don't be afraid, be terror-fried (and, of course, vote for Bush and spend a lot of money).
