A little levity for the weekend. Of course, my bet is conditional on Kerry winning--Bush would never let Fusion become a reality...

I believe that politicians do engage in wagging the dog, and what easier way to do it than with some obtuse terror warning.
As I recall, Jose Padilla was in custody for weeks, but they announced his arrest during that Congressional testimony by the female FBI agent from Minneapolis, who said that their investigation of Moussoui was squelched by DC higer ups.

Does it really matter what the target is? All you need is a terror warning. In fact, seems to me that using VA hospitals has a greater impact than something people would expect.
Do a Google search tomorrow and see what got more press. BTW, I noticed Drudge had the terror warning, but not the poverty numbers....

I'm sure the timing of the warning has nothing to do with yesterday's report that 4.5 million more people have fallen into poverty in the past 3 years, average family income has fall by $1,400 over that same period, and 1.4 million people lost health insurance last year....
Yeah, watch out for those terrorists at VA hospitals.
Yes, and the right never claimed that Clinton bombed Sudan (or Iraq?) to take the heat off of the Lewinsky scandal....
Gee, yes, I really believe that politicians never try to manipulate the media. Karl Rove would never do that would he?

As I've said for the past year or so, if Bush gets reelected, he will raise taxes and cut benefits, and most of the taxes will be pushed onto the middle and lower classes.

THE SICKEST DAY IN THE FIGHT ON TERROR

I think this act is less about religion and more about independence. Chechnya has been trying to become an independent state, and Russia has brutally responded by killing thousands of Chechnyans.
I wonder how people would view this if they were trying to break away from the old USSR regime?
At any rate, it's a brutal act that no one should support, but it is incorrect to say their cause is similar to Al Queda's.
