Homeland Security Chief quitting because of pay

Tom Ridge says $175,000 isn't enough to do his desk job managing our security.

He wants to get another job to put his two kids thru college.

Guess he never saved any money as Governor or in his current position.

    That's not the worst news I've ever heard. I have never trusted Tom Ridge anyway. Don't know why. Just haven't.

    Mudge the paranoid

    I can't come to work today. The voices said, STAY HOME AND CLEAN THE GUNS!<BR>

    Yep NS.

    Texas, Arizona National Guard....you are now exempt from the Iraqi War and are now chartered with Operation Wetback.

    You are to secure the Southern border in your States. Every illegal immigrant you capture and return to Mehico is a $1 deduction from your Federal Income Taxes.

    ?Rojo: s? que la situaci?n contigua es desolada, pero c?mo hace nosotros lo aseguramos? ?Debemos construir nosotros una cerca, o la observaci?n de hombre anuncia a lo largo de la frontera las 24 horas del d?a?

    Yo no entiendo c?mo ni por qu? nosotros permitimos la frontera para ir improtegido. S? que algunas gente est?n fuera all? tratar su mejor de asegurar la cosa, pero no trabaja.

    Cuando continuamos tomar la guerra al enemigo al exterior, nosotros debemos apretar tambi?n nuestras medidas de la seguridad aqu? en casa.

    (Red: I know the border situation is bleak, but how do we secure it? Should we build a fence, or man observation posts all along the border 24 hours a day? I do not understand how or why we allow the border to go unprotected. I know some folks are out there trying their best to secure the thing, but it is not working. As we continue to take the war to the enemy abroad, we must also tighten our security measures here at home.)
