If you are referring to Sami Al Arian, I have to demand that you back this up. I live within 2 hours of USF and spend a lot of work time in Tampa. The Al Arian controversy has been going on for years, and I have followed it to some extent. I haven't ONCE heard President Bush's name mentioned in connection with him. And believe me, if the media down here thought they could do damage to the President by linking him to Al Arian, they would be joined at the hip in the public's mind.

I'm waiting for your proof.

I'm still waiting ...

And thank you for this perspective.

I am sure President Bush is very pleased with his DOJ for today's arrests.
