Just When You Thought You Heard It All About the Bush Administration

Bush's DBP and CIA made FEMA look like a world-class operation:

A self-styled Nevada codebreaker convinced the CIA he could decode secret terrorist targeting information sent through Al Jazeera broadcasts, prompting the Bush White House to raise the terror alert level to Orange (high) in December 2003, with Tom Ridge warning of "near-term attacks that could either rival or exceed what we experience on September 11," according to a new report in Playboy.

The report deals another blow to the credibility of the Department of Homeland Security's color-coded terror alert system, and comes after Ridge's claim that the system was used as a political tool when he was DHS secretary

This clown defrauded the government out of millions of dollars. Why isn't he living down the cellblock from Bernie Madoff?
