dicking around with alert levels
1. Hold informal news conference, remind people of OBL terror threat.

2 Leave alert unchanged -- avoid political accusation.

3. Hold door open for raising level at any time. Watch this space.

4. Keep missing arms off news for another cycle.

5. I know
By KATHERINE PFLEGER SHRADER
I have seen her headlines before
the headline is a lie after reading the story.
I hope they change it soon.
