The real risk to homeland security

The real risk to homeland security that the Homeland Security chief is worried about is letters from Americans. Here's the account in the NY Daily News:

After slashing the city's anti-terrorism funds, Homeland Security chief Michael Chertoff now apparently thinks angry letters from New Yorkers are the real safety threat.

When a Daily News reporter attempted to deliver scores of messages protesting the cuts to Chertoff's Washington office, he was promptly turned away.

The letters, faxes and printed e-mails "would put all the employees here, including the secretary, at risk," said a Department of Homeland Security spokeswoman when the delivery was attempted Friday.

I have a sculpting of three monkeys on my desk representing "hear no evil", "see no evil", and "speak no evil." The first two look alot like Chertoff.
