Sounds like Chimpy has a ready made excuse for backing out

WASHINGTON (CNN) -- The Department of Homeland Security and the FBI warned authorities in Florida that Thursday's presidential debate at the University of Miami could be an attractive target for terrorists.

The agencies sent an assessment of potential terrorist threats and tactics to Florida Homeland Security Adviser and to the FBI's Miami field office.

"We do not have any specific information or intelligence to suggest that this first presidential debate is a target," a DHS official said, adding that there was no specific threat information against any of the debates. (Special Report: America Votes 2004, the debates)

The official said that the face-offs between President Bush and Democratic nominee John Kerry were symbolic events that terrorists might target in an effort to disrupt the elections.

2. Why?

......even print this "story" in the paper? There's been no threat, not even any "chatter" yet they continue to print shit like this to keep the nation in their desired state of panic.

The media in this country is in total harmony with the Bush agenda, keep 'em scared shitless and dependent on "Daddy Bush" to protect them.
