Bush Administration "Guidelines" for Postponing or Canceling the November Presidential Elections

"Secretary Tom Ridge has said that he is 'against the guidelines.' What he does not say is that various procedures have already been carefully worked out by Homeland Security analysts, who have simulated precise red code alert scenarios including situations, implying the cancellation or postponement of elections."

Yeah, I know -- another political post. I said I wouldn't do it. I'm appalled, yet can't look away.

It's a lot like gaping at a particularly bloody car accident.
