Where Are The Thousand Osamas?

Tom Ridge has lowered the terror alert level, from orange to yellow (whatever that means).

I think that this color scheme business has as much to do with the desire of the government to manage the public mood as it does to any actual perception of the threat. In a sense, it’s a signal that the war is over.

Bad Timing

And it couldn’t happen to a sleazier guy.

Sidney (the weasel) Blumenthal is about to come out with an 800-page tome detailing his life as a Clinton keester smoocher. Unfortunately for him, in the wake of Mike Kelly’s death, it apparently contains some uncomplimentary passages about him. They were long-time adversaries.

I liked this 1998 quote of Kelly’s about Slimy Sid:

“…formerly a journalist cum amateur Clinton knife artist.”

I’ll be curious to see what ex-Blumenthal-buddy Christopher Hitchens has to say.

Hopefully this will speed the book on its journey to the remainder table. It’s just a shame that this tripe yielded him a $650,000 advance. I hope the publisher loses its shirt on the deal.
