I'm shocked. Tom Ridge finally admitted that he was pressured to raise the terror alert level to help George Bush win the 2004 election. It says in a new book:

"Ridge was never invited to sit in on National Security Council meetings; was "blindsided" by the FBI in morning Oval Office meetings because the agency withheld critical information from him; found his urgings to block Michael Brown from being named head of the emergency agency blamed for the Hurricane Katrina disaster ignored; and was pushed to raise the security alert on the eve of President Bush's re-election, something he saw as politically motivated and worth resigning over."

I know I've been talking a lot about politics lately- I'll try to stop for a bit. Would you like to know what I had for lunch?

Gazpacho. And si, it was muy delicioso.
