D.C. Goes to HIGH ALERT! Bush has made us safer with Iraq war, right?
Edited on Sun Aug-01-04 11:55 AM by flpoljunkie
Just announced on CNN. Evidently, it is not the nation, but Washington, D.C.

No surprise with this move, but we cannot trust this administration regarding this assessment, with their track record, John Ashcroft.

1. Does that mean
that Kerry/Edwards have to stop campaigning? Is that their plan? Or will they trot out some 'terrorists' that they've really held for months.

3. I live in the DC metro area...
What am I supposed to do now? Am I not supposed to leave the house now? :eyes:

Is that what they are trying to tell us? I thought they were supposed to know the alert levels and try to avoid attacks with. What do they expect citizens to do when the alert level is higher.

This color alert bullshit is an insult to everybody's intelligence! What a joke!

5. haven't Kerry

Just a coincidence, i know...
