"...why haven't their been more arrests inside the US of cells, cell members or sympathizers?The Feds are supposedly monitoring suspected al qaeda cells members and supporters." Perhaps those under surveillance have not yet placed their hands squarely inside the cookie jar...Look at the stupid and undeserved flak they are taking because of GitMo, Seattle, Lackawanna, Johnny Jihad, and that heavy female lawyer charged with helping terrorists in jail communicate with terrorists not in jail, etc. It really does not seem to matter who the threat is since so many unpatriotic Americans immediately side with the wrong side.
With both truth and sarcasm, I say this: You know how the libs will scream at AG John Ashcroft and GWB if the terrorists are caught before an evil act of terror is committed; basically the Feds would need to stop an act in progress to shut them up and stem the avalanche of evil U.S. lawyers already chomping at the bit to defend all terrorists.

I agree, except that I don't think the Dems attacks are working with anyone except their core base, and those people are lost anyway. Did you see Chris Matthews interviewing that ACLU lawyer who was against the new fingerprinting and photographing of foreign nationals? Matthews was getting incensed at the guy, you could see it, if the left has lost Chris Matthews, that says alot. On the whole, the left's sympathy on these issues is hurting them, their credibility on anything associated with the terrorism is quite low.
