Houston? We have a problem.
One of these cities is not like the others -- one of these cities just doesn't belong.
- The U.S. Department of Homeland Security designated the Bay Area today as one of the six urban areas in the country most at risk for terrorist attacks, as it doled out nearly $750 million in anti-terror grants. . . .
The Department of Homeland Security had been criticized in the past by officials from large cities who argued that the government was not living up to promises that it would focus heavily on the risks cities face.
Today, the agency gave 55 percent of the grants to six urban areas --
the Bay Area, Los Angeles/Long Beach, Washington, D.C., Chicago, New York/New Jersey and Houston.

Houston? If you need a sixth city, I would think Detroit would be more at risk.
