hang on a second- hate Ridge all you want but this is nothing more than the criminal liberal media twisting words and a story to get the outcome they hoped for....

I sympathize with your claim to an extent...as I said in another post on this topic..it appears the publisher (who all work for Dems) put this story out to counter Hussein's falling poll numbers.
BUT, Ridge feeds into it, he panders to the MSM consistently, they KNOW he is usually a reliable “Republican” to be invited on a show to smear Pres. Bush, Cheney, or Rummy. He allows himself to be used this way.

A day later, the New York Times pointed out that the book not only didnt have any supporting evidence for that claim, it also had Ridge insisting that he hadnt seen any political pressure on threat levels.
The NY Slimes, no less, points out that there was nothing in the book to substantiate the publishers claim that Bush & Co. pressured Ridge.
