2. Actually this has been going on since 9/11 and schools haven't needed

the Bush admin. or The Homeland Insecurity Dept. to tell them waht to look for or how to plan. The terrorists of Columbine put a lot of this stuff in action, not to mention that variety of crazy parents that frequent schools these days. The Admin. is just making points by raising it to the level of news.

3. Foreign terrorists aren't exactly

what the schools have to deal with. We have our own young, homegrown ones:

Slaying plot alleged at high school
Marshfield teen accused of plan to kill eight
By Kathleen Burge and Emily Sweeney, Globe Staff | October 7, 2004

MARSHFIELD -- A Marshfield High School junior is under arrest on charges that he plotted a murderous attack against eight individually named students and teachers, mapped the school's escape doors that he planned to padlock, and exploded a handmade bomb in a practice session.

Police said the 16-year-old student was possibly timing an attack to coincide with the April 20 anniversary of the school shootings at Columbine High School in Colorado.

5. And the alert is not based on any known threat either

So it's nothing but a crock. And as her caller and another poster here pointed out - schools are polling places.
