"Publicly, we're saying we're better at fighting terrorism. Privately, we know that the bureaucracy has only gotten worse, since the high-level people are scared of being held responsible for it." David Hull

Attention all bloggers -- and blog readers. In the wake of the second round of (thankfully failed) bombings in London, I want to share with you a new Terror Alert System.

The system, as you can see, is based on the most solid and reliable American technology available. And of course, it's easily recognizable to virtually all citizens of the world, regardless of language--or culture--differences.

The beauty of this system is that it addresses a deadly serious subject in terms which can be understood by even the least aware citizens on the planet. Of course, like all such systems, it is only as effective as the Puppiteers Behind It.

The Department of Homeland Security will be adopting this new system as soon as Big Bird Michael Chertoff figures out new ways to channel more Homeland Security funds to Wyoming and other key potential targets where big Republican donors have homes.

This unique learning system is especially relevant to current practices. All together now:

P is for Political.
B is for Boondoggle.
S is for Sham.

S is also supposed to be for Security. It would be nice if we All lived on Sesame Street.
