Welcome Back The Spotlight 'O Terror
Green - Low: This setting is here just as a reference point. DHS will never use it because it would mean we didn’t need them anymore.
Blue - Guarded: This rarely used setting on the Stoplight ‘O Terror could indicate things like an undocumented worker within 3 square miles of the president.
Yellow - Elevated: This is the standard level of fear. Don’t expect to see anything lower than this as long as the Regressives are in office. Be scared, but not too scared to vote Republican.
Orange - High: Chertoff heard that someone in the CIA’s brother’s boss’ nephew’s sister-in-law heard about a plan to blow up Amish Country Popcorn Factory in Berne Indiana. It’s ok to pee your pants at this level.
Red - Severe: A terror attack was recently narrowly averted. We can’t release any details but just be thankful we saved your asses. Used frequently before midterm elections. See October Surprise. (Oh My God, Take Away My Freedoms and Protect Me From Them There Terrorists, Like Osama Hussein!!!)
Welcome to my Blog, enjoy your stay!
Congressman Ron Paul, MD - We've Been NeoConned

1984 radio broadcast:
CASTEL GANDOLFO, Italy -- Pope Benedict XVI on Wednesday lashed out against the "dragon" of materialism that has seized much of the world but said God was more powerful than the seemingly "invincible" trend.
While celebrating the Feast of the Assumption marking the Virgin Mary's ascension into heaven, the pope invoked the "red dragon" of evil which figures in the New Testament.
The pontiff said the "red dragon" had been embodied in "the great dictatorships of the past century: Nazism and Stalinism."
"Today, the dragon exists in various forms -- in the materialist ideologies which tell people that it is absurd to think about God, to observe the Commandments which are described as outdated, and that they should grab what they can."
"It seems impossible to oppose this dominant mentality with all the media backing it has and the dragon once again appears to be invincible," he said.
"But God is stronger than the dragon and it is love which triumphs, not selfishness."
