In nearly 6 weeks since the election, has anyone else noticed . . .

[hatrack]

. . . the complete absence of Terror Alert updates from Ridge & the rest of the Beltway Boneheads?

The total lack of shifts in the big color chart?

The sudden disappearance of terrorism intelligence which is too secret to be disclosed, and which doesn't deal with any specific threats against specific targets which we should not allow to panic us as we continue to vigilantly remain vigilant while vigilantly going about our daily lives, mainly shopping vigilantly?

Just asking . . .

[bullimiami]

1. Yup. I mentioned this a little while back.

Just dont need them anymore I guess.

[SHRED]

2. Yeah

They don't need to scare anyone into voting for them now.

[DeaconBlues]

3. Yeh, I noticed it about a week ago

Quite a coincidence, huh?

[Jo March]

4. Wow. I haven't noticed that until now

Hmm. That is really an amazing coincidence, isn't it? Maybe all of the terra-ists are celebrating Tom Ridge's resignation.

[DoYouEverWonder]

5. They're probably too busy

Christmas shopping.

[Solly Mack]

6. They wouldn't want to hurt the shopping season...

after the new year, it'll be crayola central again

[rkc3]

7. I have been bringing that up daily to my work mates.

No one seems to have an answer. Haven't pressed the RW nutters though. I might hear that we're safer since dumbass got re-elected - then I'd have to shoot someone.

[sportndandy]

I guess fear works

except for the fact that they had to fix the vote counting.

[Dr Batsen D Belfry]

8. But we got two this week

about terrorists using lasers and wanting to disrupt shipping (courtesy of UK) just in time to deflect Rumsfeld's crucifixion

[Pacifist Patriot]

9. Didn't think of it until you mentioned it. Bet many haven't noticed either

[SammyWinstonJack]

10. I've notice

Have the "Security Moms" noticed as well?

[Skink]

12. CNN is trying to manufacture there own warnings now....

Aaron Brown just isn't that scarey.:scared:

[Liberty Belle]

11. I'm sure that if Kerry wins the recount, we'll have a code red

followed by martial law.

[w13rd0]

13. As Ashcroft said...

...the task of making the nation safe from fear and terror has been accomplished. They shoehorned jackass back into office, now we all get a reprieve from the terror and fearmongering, at least for a couple months, or until someone needs to drown a news story or political enemy or something...

[graywarrior]

14. Now we have "Liberal Alerts"

[tmooses]

15. Bush people said the more Americans are scared the better for Bush..

That was before the election. I guess they accomplished their "mission". This has got to be one (out of many) crimes from this election-how the MSM allowed the administration to manipulate the fears
of voters for political gain so obviously.

[Historic NY]

16. Yup, waiting for the shoe to fall. Wait til Bernie gets going..........

then the chicken little syndrome will start again.

[skypilot]

17. Apparently...

...terrorism is now such a low priority concern that we've installed a high school dropout and former deadbeat dad as Homeland Security Secretary.

[KoKo]

18. They've replaced it with "PanDemic Flu" Alerts???? Lasers taking out

Airlines??? I agree though, about the "color codes." I wonder what the new program for "Dept. of Homeland" will be, though.

[Sparkle]

19. One of the streets at the White House was reopened too.

Bush in company don't have to lie anymore because he's not running for anything. Their voters drank the koolaid believeing everything tht was said. Idiots.

[Mutley]

20. oh don't worry

it'll start again...

they still need to worry about '08 don't they? or do they? heh, some say there may not even be elections in '08. i don't know about that but then again, i don't know about a lot of things.

either way, i agree with the poster who said the alerts and such will start again after christmas.

[CANDO]

21. Yes, I have...

for the last week or so they have been scaring the bejesus out of us by mentioning how vulnerable our food supply chain is and just yesterday they told us how we need to look out for terrorists with lasers. The lasers are for blinding pilots as they try to come in for landings. They didn't fiddle with the terror alert color code over these issues, but they sure as hell make the attempt to keep everyone on edge.

[Kingshakabobo]

22. What terror? n/t

:shrug:
