Eschaton: Playing Politics With Terror Alerts

So, apparently Pakistan arrested a guy who chirped, and (best I can tell) that's why Ridge rolled out this weekend and jazzed up the terror alert routine w/ some new *specific* information. That doesn't really address the point though, which is "Is the Bush Administration playing politics with their terror alerts?". Generally, there's no argument from me on this question. In this case, machts nichts. Are you scared yet? ------------------------

Eschaton: Playing Politics With Terror Alerts Ridge, today: But we must understand that the kind of information available to us today is the result of the president's leadership in the war against terror, the reports that have led to this alert are the result of offensive intelligence and military operations overseas, as well as strong partnerships with our allies around the world, such as Pakistan.
