Britain Raises Terror Threat Level

Orange Alert!

Raise level from "Substantial", which means an attack being a strong possibility, to "Severe" which is an attack being highly likely.

Only "Critical" is greater.

I miss our color coded system.

 

Yeah, I miss it too, especially when the Bush administration would raise it in response to some bad news for them.

 

Well, I guess when you have the pole smokers in the White House press corps in your back pocket and can sic the IRS on legitimate opponents, it's easier to keep the heat off.

 

The Brits were not pleased when the president oafishly admitted he had no strategy for ISIS.

Tan suits.

 

Let me know when this gets to Threat Level Midnight. At that point I will be concerned.

 

Boogity Boogity, Matey!
