This F'n coward chooses to run and hide . . . . .  What about all the poor bastards who are not in positions of power, and do not have access to the same info.   Someone  should give him a proper send off.



WASHINGTON (CNN) -- A Democratic senator said he will close his Capitol Hill office until after the November 2 election, fearing a possible terrorist attack that could harm his staff or visitors.

Sen. Mark Dayton of Minnesota issued a statement Tuesday, citing a "top-secret intelligence report on our national security" provided to congressional members by Majority Leader Bill Frist, R-Tennessee.

"Based upon that information," Dayton wrote, "I have decided to close my office in the Russell Senate Office Building until after the upcoming election.

"I do so out of extreme, but necessary, precaution to protect the lives and safety of my Senate staff and my Minnesota constituents, who might otherwise visit my office in the next few weeks. I feel compelled to do so, because I will not be here in Washington to share in what I consider to be an unacceptably greater risk to their safety."

Dayton said he could not give details of the intelligence report that Frist presented to senators two weeks ago. Dayton said he's asked Frist three times to convene a meeting of all senators to discuss the situation, but Frist has not agreed.

The third floor of the Russell building, which is across the street from the Capitol, also includes the offices of Democratic presidential nominee Sen. John Kerry of Massachusetts.

Dayton will move part of his staff to his office in the Fort Snelling Federal Building in Minnesota and other operations to Senate office space away from Capitol Hill. Telephone calls will be routed to his Minnesota office.

Congress is in recess until after the election.

As far as I can tell, the only terrorist attacks during this election have been made by Democrats.

Three options:

1. Publicity stunt.
2. He's a pussy.
3. He's the smart one...

I'm hoping for 1, assuming 2, and
praying it's not 3.

Dayton is also a security risk by citing classified reports that give him "insider" information - now the bad guys know that he knows, giving them an advantage by adopting a new, uncompromised plan.

Notice that every newsource just identifies this Senator as being from Minnesota.

NOT that he's a Democrap.

Yet, everytime they report on something unpleasant about a Republican politician, they are certain to mention party affiliation.

Sorry buddy, but do a google news search on Sen Dayton, and many of them start off with "A Democratic senator from Minnesota....
