Just in Time for Election 2006, Terror Alerts Return

Isn't it amazing that there hasn't been a terror alert since the end of the Presidential elections? Well, I just read an article stating there were rumblings that the Shrub's reelection didn't spell the extinction of anthrax, the end of the dirty bomb or those willing to use it against the increasingly evil American empire. Amazingly coincident with the start of the 2006 Congressional elections and Republican fears of losing one, if not both, houses of Congress to their own ethics abuses, terror and terror threats are back.

So the terror threat level has been set to "election year". Expect more orange and red than yellow in this year's fashion palette.

If we buy into this transparent ploy, we deserve the bad leadership we have. But Bush had trouble with "fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me." Apparently so do his constituents.

Remember Nixon left office with a twenty-five percent approval rating.
