Timing
I take it that Tom Ridge made this announcement:
Homeland Security Secretary Tom Ridge said Thursday that there is "credible" information indicating that al-Qaida is moving ahead with plans for a "large-scale attack" in the U.S. aimed at disrupting the November elections.to assist in bush's effort to squash a House attempt to remove some of the more onerous pieces of the patriot act:

Hat tips to Norbizness and Talkleft.
