Are Americans going to be fooled in 2004 as they were in 2002?
Mueller and Ridge Try to Bail Bush Out with New - and Vaguest Ever! - Terror Threat (Democrats.com):

You'd think that if Tom Ridge, Bob Mueller and the rest of the cast of shady characters seriously wanted to deflect the rotten PR the Idiot in Chief has brought on himself lately they could at least try to make the new terror alert sound halfway credible. But this new warning - first revealed by FOX news right after "24" (a show about a thwarted bioterrorism attack - get it?) - is so vague as to be embarrassing: "Although there is no specific target, time or date for the possible attack, the information is the culmination of intelligence that has been known and gathered over time -- and it is the assessment that is new." The "source" says "certain people" are being sought, but they "would not describe who those persons are and why they are wanted now." There is also no plan to raise the terror threat level, which is at yellow, or elevated." Reports say mayors of major cities have expressed more bewilderment than alarm at the latest "intelligence."
