Tom "Flunkie" Ridge about to hold a conference where he will say that

[jefferson_dem]

the terror alert WILL NOT be raised but will offer a bulletin that "local law enforcement should be extra vigilant...la di da."

Fear...fear...fear...

How much do i hate these bastards?

[SCRUBDASHRUB]

1. or will he now RAISE the alert to make people go toward Bush?

[Nikepallas]

2. Watch him have at least one more conference this weekend

at the second one he will raise it because "New info" came in.

They are waiting for talk shows to say they are not scaring people they are looking out for your interests. Then BAM!!! anything you can image.

3. He looks like a monster because he is a monster

I cannot wait till Kerry cuts out the nonsense

[Skip Intro]

4. So the reason for a national TV spot is to communicate with local police?

Does the department of homeland scare-ity have no other means to talk to law enforcement?

The very premise for this exposes it as nothing but cheap attempt to manipulate the public thru fear.

Enjoy it while you can, you effin' criminals. The sun is setting on this bs.

5. I might be off-base here, but I've always thought that...

Tom Ridge would really like to do his job, if anyone would give him the right to do it, instead of making him a stupid puppet.

I've wondered what Tom Ridge could really do, if Kerry would keep him on, give him the real tools to help our country.

Oh well, probably just a election anxiety dream.

6. He's the most famous person from my hometown

And people here wonder why other towns consider us weird...

[unfrigginreal]

7. I'm pulling out my plastic wrap and duct tape now

do I have time to go shopping before he comes on?

[NightOwwl]

8. Uh, yeah...why do we need to be in on this conference?

Just send the bulletin and the warning to law enforcement agencies. I hear they have these newfangled machines (called internets or something like that) that can send documents, and even pictures(!) to thousands of people, in seconds.

9. The press has sold out the american people

If they don't call this administration out on these terrible ploys - the press has no integrity. They are caught in a perfect rovian pickle... and if press expressed any doubt,
they would be tagged as endangering the american public. Well pals, it's the moment of truth. Say it out loud... BULLSHIT ! Now didn't that feel better. Repeat loud and often.

[Clinton Crusader]

10. new one on Sunday or (gasp!) Monday to say

we dont know where, we dont know who, we dont know when, but we have specific information now that just came in...it's general chatter, but mentions of Dixville Notch, Cleveland and Miami-Dade have us concerned, although we did have a crosswires problem earlier and think we may have picked up MSNBC, but NONETHELESS..BE VIGILANT!
