Michelle Malkin: BUSH REVEALS FOILED TERROR PLOT

Michelle Malkin notes an announcement from the president that the US has foiled a major terrorist attack. Amazingly, this comes right on the heels of a State of the Union address which did not give the usual nudge upwards in presidential approval. And it comes the day after the president changed course and handed information about his possibly illegal domestic spying operations over to Congress. Not that there would be any relationship between these.

Update Sarcasm aside, The Military Outpost reports this threat "was derailed in early 2002." Four years later, the president trots this out and we're not supposed to notice that he deliberately chose to do so right on the heels of releasing this spying information to Congress? It's kind of like Jose Padilla. Right as the FBI is getting reamed for supposed failures to detect the 9/11 plot, Attorney General Ashcroft trots out the dirty bomb mastermind, Padilla, as an example of FBI success.
