The more people like Ridge expose themselves, the more I am convinced D.C. needs a Costo institutional pack sized enema ...

Tom Ridge thought the job of Homeland Security was to ensure the flow of illegal aliens continued.

Does this toad understand that the federal government has a duty and responsibility to protect its facilities, especially when local authorities refuse to do so?

Huh, I wonder why he never talked about the Arkansas State Troopers or the FBI.

Tom Ridge was a waste of space who did nothing of note. He looked like Herbert Hoover too, a fitting likeness.

“ I wasn’t a fan of Tom Ridge then, and still not a fan.“

Didn’t Freepers used to love his color codes? Back in the day that Bush couldn’t be criticized because “he kept us safe”?

“Watch the left embrace him like they did GW.”

Remember when people used to WORSHIP George W Bush and his Iraq War?

Bush, IMHO used the American military to go after Iraq in part because of the threats against his father. That, is what using your position for personal reasons looks like.

Lol. I remember there used to be a daily thread called 'Threat Matrix' or some such.

You are a prime example of the kind of spineless RINOs we voted against.

Yeah... fatso Tom Ridge... the jerk who came up with the post-911 color-coded warning fiasco and “shoes/underwear” TSA dept.
