Laura Goes Off Message

First Lady Laura Bush, who is rarely outspoken in her public remarks, said yesterday she thinks "constant news alerts" on TV about terror "are frightening people."

"It's a little bit like crying wolf," she said in Manhattan. "You know, it hasn't happened yet."

Psst, Laura... That's what your husband wants, to frighten people into supporting his war and distract voters from thinking about the failing economy. It wasn't the TV news channels that issued an Orange Alert, Pickles.

But it's good to see the first confirmed sighting of a crying Wolf.
