"You can't make an amnesty without blowing up a few pipelines..."

...or something like that.

Cheers!

How about deporting all members of the ideology of death and destruction?

Much as I like the idea, I don't think you can deport someone just for being a Democrat.

but would a pipeline actually blow up? Or would it require a opening inside the pipeline to get air insdie to blow it up?

Look now. We can't have questions. Just accept it was 'one of the most chilling imaginable'. Why? Because a government official told you so and that's all you need to know.

Defeitas sought help in carrying out a plan and went to an FBI informant, who gathered information about the plot.....One law enforcement official said: "[There was] credible intent to commit violence but it was not operational."

Course I'm not going to comment this sounds vaguely familiar. Like the pizza delivery boy who asked the FBI informant to lead his small band in attacking a military installation. One would think if he was so gung ho and knowledgeable he wouldn't have to ask the FBI informant to lead them. Nope not going to say it. That would be 'unpatriotic'....Not to going to ask what defines 'credible intent' either.

Sheesh, can't the government come up with more believable acts? These stories are just getting ridiculous.

“Ron Paul is a NUT.....not nearly as deangerous as Kennedy.”

as you wish; sounds pretty sensible to me. I take it you are thrilled, then with the re-assignment of 120 US Border staff from our borders to help train Iraqi border guards? A wonderful idea - - NOT.

Immigration ‘Compromise’ Sells Out Our Sovereignty
May 28, 2007

The much-vaunted Senate “compromise” on immigration is a compromise alright: a compromise of our laws, a compromise of our sovereignty, and a compromise of the Second Amendment. That anyone in Washington believes this is a credible approach to solving our immigration crisis suggests just how out of touch our political elites really are.

The reality is that this bill will grant amnesty to virtually all of the 12 to 20 million illegal aliens in the country today. Supporters use very creative language to try and convince us that amnesty is not really amnesty, but when individuals who have entered the United States illegally are granted citizenship – regardless of the fees they are charged – what you have is amnesty.

What is seldom discussed in the immigration debate, unfortunately, is the incentives the US government provides for people to enter the United States illegally. As we know well, when the government subsidizes something we get more of it. The government provides a myriad of federal welfare benefits to those who come to the US illegally, including food stamps and free medical care. Is this a way to discourage people from coming to the US illegally?

Additionally, one of the most absurd incentives for people to come to the US illegally is the promise of instant US citizenship to anyone born on our soil. That is why when Congress returns next week I will be re-introducing my Constitutional amendment to deny automatic citizenship to individuals born on US soil to parents who are not US citizens or who do not owe permanent allegiance to the United States .

There are many other very troubling items buried deep in the Senate’s immigration compromise. The bill explicitly calls for an “acceleration” of the March 2005 agreement between the US president, the president of Mexico , and the prime minister of Canada , known as the “Security and Prosperity Partnership (SPP) of North America .” This somewhat secretive agreement – a treaty in all but name – aims to erase the borders between the United States , Canada , and Mexico and threatens our sovereignty and national security. The SPP was agreed by the president without the participation of Congress. It should be eliminated, not accelerated!

According to the pro-Second Amendment Gun Owners of America, the legislation also makes it easier to target gun dealers for prosecution. Even gun clubs could find themselves targeted under this immigration reform legislation.

Immigration reform should start with improving our border protection, yet it was reported last week that the federal government has approved the recruitment of 120 of our best trained Border Patrol agents to go to Iraq to train Iraqis how to better defend their borders! This comes at a time when the National Guard troops participating in Operation Jump Start are being removed from border protection duties in Arizona , New Mexico , and Texas and preparing to deploy to Iraq and Afghanistan ! It is an outrage and it will result in our borders being more vulnerable to illegal entry, including by terrorists.

I will continue to oppose any immigration bill that grants amnesty to illegals or undermines our liberty and sovereignty.

doesn’t matter where they come from.

this will become a global struggle to purge the
concept of islam from the fabric of humanity
at large before it is over

and it will be purged....

I don’t know how the NY airports are laid out...but here the fuel is stored in tanks far, far from the general public. The planes are fueled from either small trucks or small pipelines under the tarmac. Perhaps the MSM is inflating the story a bit? :)

Perhaps, the idea was to use conventional explosives to rupture the pipeline, whereupon a raging fire would ensue. I would think/hope, however, these pipelines aren’t located in the basements of the airline concourses.

I bet those nasty Lutherans were involved somehow. Lutherans or maybe Baptists; everyone knows that Baptists are always trying to blow things up.
