Ashcroft Hysterical

The NYTimes reports today that John Ashcroft "may" be using terror alerts to take Americans minds off his boss's political troubles. John Ashcroft doing something unethical? The guy makes Ed Meese look like Learned Hand.

"There's no real new intelligence, and a lot of this has been out there already," said one administration official who spoke on the condition of anonymity. "There really is no significant change that would require us to change the alert level of the country."


A warning based on old information? Sounds like "Bin Ladin Determined to Attack In US". Time for ol' Georgie-Poo to go on a 30 day vacation. Last time he heard a warning like this, he ranted about Saddam from a golf cart. And we know where that got us.
