1. You would have to be a real idiot not to have known that all of the

terror alerts were politically motivated. Ridge acts as if he was the only guy who knew this. Perhaps he should have consulted one of us to help write his book.

2. The only thing that Ridge cares about is the bottom line

how much money he can make whether it be as the director then or as an author now. No revelations in his book other than him thinking we are all a bunch of dumbasses, which isn't the case. I'll not be buying his book of whitewash

5. The *other* thing Ridge cares about is NOT being labeled a "war criminal"

...and having to spend the rest of his life in a 10 x 10 cell.

7. So very true

There is no statue of limitations on war crimes so even if this administration doesn't go after these thugs someone down the road will.

3. Excellent! I mean, honestly--duh!! But of course, we were paranoid and unpatriotic to have been

pointing this out at the time.

4. All this Tom Ridge talk got me thinking about ....

when Bush's departing Secretary of HHS Tommy Thompson said this:

"For the life of me, I cannot understand why the terrorists have not attacked our food supply because it is so easy to do," Thompson said. "We are importing a lot of food from the Middle East, and it would be easy to tamper with that."
