Security Alert!
Lookout! Code Orange! Where's Tom Ridge! It's an election year prepare for more bullshit security alerts!

Notice we didn't see any of these for two years? Now get ready for a whole lot of reports lacking any actual information to make us feel afraid. Here's the basic format.

Homeland Security spokesman **insert stooge-name here** said **day** there is no specific or credible intelligence to indicate U.S. **spin wheel, insert potential target here** are being targeted by **spin wheel, choose between hijacking, suicide bombs, guy with torch trying to cut down Brooklyn bridge, or cooler full of bombs floating on river**.


I made none of those up. Yes, in the 2004 election cycle we were warned that terrorists might blow us up with beer coolers.
