Ridge predicting al Qaeda attack, winning lotto numbers.
Al Qaeda plans a large-scale attack on the United States "in an effort to disrupt the democratic process" before November's elections, Homeland Security Secretary Tom Ridge said Thursday. Really?! Duh.

Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist, R-Tennessee, speaking before the briefing, said the intelligence was "very non-specific" and there was "no reason for panic, no reason for paralysis."
"The reality is of increased risk here in the homeland over the next several weeks, the next several months," Frist said.
