Break out the duct tape…Homeland Security chief Tom Ridge joins the ranks of the Dubya-departed, “noting that he feels exhausted from the grueling hours required for the work and that he wants to make more money now that he has two children reaching college age.” Current names being bandied about as replacements include “former Virginia governor James S. Gilmore III, Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney and Frances Fragos Townsend, current White House homeland security adviser.” Given the recent trend to promote Dubya loyalists throughout the cabinet, I’m surprised they haven’t found a new gig for Marc Racicot yet…he’s been the flunky’s flunky.
One thought on “Orange Alert.”

I’m glad Tom listened to me. I saw him at the gate when I was at Dulles last Wednesday, and I said “Tom, you really should hang it up before your boss embarasses you more.” I guess he took it to heart.
Ok. I did see Tom Ridge at Dulles last week at the gate my flight was leaving, but he was surrounded by secret service agents and my wife told me if I so much as said boo she was gonna kick my ass.
So I held my tongue.
