This Terror Stuff is Sickening
I just listened to Tom Ridge's political speech.

This is really about as low as any adm. can go. Just try to keep everyone scared to death.

I was kind of worried until I actually listened to him. There is no new information. They have been saying the financial centers were a target for a long time. Wall Street, especially.

How on earth do you combat this kind of stuff? Is there some kind of law against this?

5. He is an incompetent toddler who keeps crying 'Wolf!'
If anybody believes his constant "We have no specifics but stay home, cover your windows and doors, and shop online" nonsense, people WILL stop believing him eventually.

By then there will be an attack and he'll, in a rational country, lose all crediblity and power. Trouble is, this is America. We haven't been rational for quite some time.
