That's what happens when the majority party in NYC starts identifying with the terrorists.

It's a headline because the feds totally discounted the info.

"An official from the Department of Homeland Security told CNN that the agency has received intelligence regarding "a specific but not credible" threat to New York's subway system "in recent days."

The official said that the intelligence community concluded the information is of "doubtful credibility."

Come on, Karol. You watch Keith Olbermann. You read Wonkette. There's no terrorist threat.

Is it just me, or is Bush hanging Bloomberg out to dry--"We won't second guess him, but the threat's of doubtful credibility". Now that's MUCH more shocking than any headline 4 years after 9/11.

J Nathan;

Here is what Bush really said:

President Bush, asked Friday if he thought New York officials had overreacted, said: "I think they took the information we gave and made the judgments they thought were necessary."

Did Giuliani's wife just dis Bloomberg?

You really don't think it's possible that he just played up the threat to get some good press coverage before the election?
