I want it to get to purple!

Congressman Boehner's Terror Alert Skin Set Back To Orange.

Run away! Run away!

I wonder what kind of recordings the Bush NSA wiretapping has on Ridge.... Ridge was really pitiful on the Rachel Maddow show when she ever so gently eviscerated him.

Keeping us safe from terrorists

But not from terror?

Susie of Suburban Guerilla observes:

We have people in charge whose political survival is invested in the possibility of another terrorist attack in America.

Be afraid. Be afraid enough to vote for Republican daddy figures. Ignore the hand in the till...

Distraction and disenfranchisement

The only way Republicans can win elections now. Paul Krugman:

The Republican Party’s adherence to an outdated ideology leaves it with big problems. It can’t offer domestic policies that respond to the public’s real needs. So how can it win elections?

The answer, for a while, was a combination of distraction and disenfranchisement.

Basically: Terror alerts and voter fraud. What kind of convenient attack will they accidentally allow to happen before election day this time?
