I would appreciate it if you preceded such subject matter with "OT", so I
know not to waste my time. IMHO many have had enough of this type subject
matter in a ponds group. I really appreciate your ponds/fish advice.

BV,

Who says Dubya is the one in charge? GOTCHA!!!

Seriously, IMHO, this was a story that got all blown out of
proportion. It APPEARS Tom Ridge asked several important questions -
Is their any plan to postpone the election in the event of a terrorist
attack? And should Congress pass a law permitting that?

Sadly, at least some congressmen seemed to be agreeable (which brings
up images of what happened in Germany 70 some years ago). Judging
from more recent reports, current plans are more in the order of 'How
do we conduct the election in case of a terrorist attack?'. And THAT
kind of planning is always in order.

But from the other hand, the freedom to ask such questions AND to go
totally overboard when they are asked are an important protection of
the Constitution.

I see no reason to postpone the election, certainly not because of terrorism.
The presidential election has never been postponed, not even during the civil
war.

I think this site is capatilizing on a story and propagating it improperly.
From what I understand, Al-Queda is planning an alleged attack in order to
disturb the election process, and Tom Ridge has suggested we should be
prepared for such an event, even if that means postponing the election if an
attack does occur.

I find it hard to believe they are seriously talking about postponing it
pre-emtively. Not even Dubya would be that crass.

Thank you, George. And does Dick agree with you?
