I guess you don't watch much of Fox as they *GONG* whenever the wind shifts. It is continuous and quite annoying.But it works. If you have Fox on but you're not paying attention, you look up when you hear the *GONG*. They would have gotten rid of it years ago if it didn't have the desired effect.

But no, they continue to build empires and make stupid announcements on TV.I don't disagree with you about locking down the borders (I'd want that even if there was no terror threat whatsoever), but how is this a "stupid announcement"? U.S. intelligence has found credible evidence that an attack is imminent, and we're being told about it. Forget all the failings of the federal gov't for a moment... how is that announcement, in and of itself, "stupid"?

Talking head on MSNBC said the FBI notified field agents to cancel vacations and report to work.

Do you know if it's just Delta, or did other airlines canceled it too?
I hope your husband gets home OK.

It is a brilliant political move, and it's a good thing that they did this. And, if an attack takes place, Clark will be able accuse Dean of knowing about the attack before it happened.

I'm impressed with MSNBC's coverage -- they have more experts on there (like Steve Emerson) that I actually learn something from, unlike FOX where its like listening to a bull session down at the local watering hole.

something big is happening to cancel all those vacations. I take this very seriously and Homeland Security is the best we have so I don't like the flipness about it from some on this thread. I don't think this is a political move,,I just don't think Bush would do that. And they must have something to go on otheer than chatter.

"And, if an attack takes place, Clark will be able accuse Dean of knowing about the attack before it happened."
The Democrats are so disingenuous in their attacks, we SHOULD accuse Dean of having previous knowledge if something happens.
To: FairOpinion
I don't know about other airlines. Thank you for the kind thoughts,,I hope the old guy gets home too!!!

news conf in NYC in 2 hours from Bloomberg,,this doesn't sound like a little thingSo I heard, but it may not amount to much. I suspect it's his lame attempt to put us at ease (more police on patrol, NY prepared, etc.) fearful we'd lose the tourist business that has been booming here in NY.

If the government was serious about doing anything, they would have already resurrected the Civil Defense organization of the 50s and embarked upon a training and preparedness program among the local populations. They would have activated the state militias to stand watch in various places. They would have locked down the borders with Mexico and Canada. But no, they continue to build empires and make stupid announcements on TV. My sentiments exactly.
