With Al Qaeda's latest threat, why are we stuck on yellow? Stock markets? |
|
Is Ridge asleep or did Greenspan tell him not to mess with the color codes during the recent market rally?

1. Color codes are a universal joke |
|
I bet the market wouldn't even flinch if we went to orange.

2. Because the "latest threat" is another CIA/Mosaad disinfo vignette |
|
Tossed out for no other reason than to make sure that your hatred of Muslims is maintained at a suitable level in the likelihood that any information about the current mass slaughter campaign should leak into a foreign newspaper, be translated, and you forget to discredit the report because it came from a foreign newspaper.

3. Make that a White House/Defense/Mossad disinfo vignette,... |
|
...and I might buy it.
CIA's not playing nice in the sandbox with the White House anymore.

5. I thought the Langley Entertainment Division was still loyal |
|
Or maybe they aren't, and that is why the products are progressively stupider..

4. Because Bush only SAID he was in a war on terror |
|
We all know by his actions that he isn't interested in fighting terror at all. he is interested in an Afghan pipeline and American oil interests having control of iraqi oil.
Where does the terror war come in????? There will be a terror color alert when the polls start dropping more and the election draws even closer.

6. CNN ticker still scrolls the threat level... |
|
which has been stuck on yellow forever. i think they realized that it's a joke, and every time they raise it from yellow to orange it costs the states a ton of money.

7. Because everytime the change that stupid color, |
|
it cost money. Lots of money. Extra precautions have to be taken. The primary purpose of this system was to make the sheeple feel like something was being done. It is not really an effect means of combatting terrorism and they know it. Since no one takes it serious, it is useless as a feel good action and it cost too much money.
