Finally, the law is growing some teeth. It's high time the US had some "bite" toward those who have gained citizenship under false pretenses or who commit treason or other crimes after doing so.
Also this looks like one hell of a storm on the way, is this normal at all? Doesnt seem to be!
NO!
Just wait till next week and the three big storms that are coming and going to meet somewhere in the middle of the US.
"To move the military" was Ike's excuse for the Interstate System. I understand a lot of the design specs for the Interstates were DOD (minimum heights for overpasses, strenght of road surface,. . .)

"Kuwaiti 'cell' planned to hit joint exercise; 'Two to three' still held"
ARTICLE SNIPPET: "KUWAIT CITY (Agencies): Staunch US ally Kuwait uncovered a cell in its army that was plotting to attack American and other foreign forces in the country, the defence minister said Tuesday, amid suspicions the group could be linked to al-Qaeda. It was the coalition forces and certainly the American army targetted because it is the largest, Sheikh Jaber Al-Mubarak Al-Sabah told AFP. The number of those (still) arrested are two to three people, he said, a day after Kuwait announced it was questioning an undisclosed number of soldiers planning to attack friendly forces in the country. Kuwaiti authorities are investigating suspicions that the soldiers could be linked to al-Qaeda, the minister said, declining at this stage to associate the suspects with the terror network."

For Immediate Release

January 4, 2005
Secretary Tom Ridge today announced a new affiliation between Citizen Corps and The American Legion and the American Legion Auxiliary to help raise public awareness about the importance of emergency preparedness and volunteer service. Along with Secretary Ridge, Thomas P. Cadmus, National Commander of The American Legion, and Sandi Dutton, National President of the American Legion Auxiliary, were present to sign the respective agreements.
The American Legion and the Legions Auxiliary devote countless hours to serving their country and their communities, said Ridge. With the help of these two organizations, the Department of Homeland Securitys Citizen Corps will expand its efforts to educate, train and prepare all Americans.
Through these partnerships, American Legion Posts and American Legion Auxiliary Units across the nation will assist in developing local Citizen Corps Councils to involve citizens in preparedness efforts. This affiliation will also focus on engaging Americas youth in hometown security, elevating Flag Day as a day of citizenship and emergency preparedness, and providing support to Veterans Affairs Hospitals in emergency preparedness efforts.
At their 2004 National Convention, The American Legion passed a resolution to become an affiliate of Citizen Corps. National Commander Cadmus pledged the continuing commitment of his organization stating, Supporting the Departments efforts to engage citizens in hometown security is a natural fit for The American Legion. Our members have all seen active military duty defending our country and strongly believe in the mission to be prepared on the home front too. Echoing this sentiment, Sandi Dutton, National President of the American Legion Auxiliary, also expressed her support. The women of the Auxiliary are committed to improving the welfare of the community by helping all citizens be prepared for any emergency.
Citizen Corps is the Department of Homeland Securitys nationwide grass-roots effort that actively involves Americans in making communities safer, stronger and better prepared for all emergencies. The American Legion serves as an advocate for American veterans, a friend of the U.S. military, a sponsor of community-based programs for young people, and a spokesman for patriotic values. With 2.7 million members and nearly 15,000 posts worldwide, the American Legion is the nations largest veterans group. The American Legion Auxiliary is the largest patriotic womens service organization in the world, with nearly 1 million members. The organization sponsors volunteer programs on the national and local levels, focusing on three major areas: veterans, young people and the community.
