This is an excellent idea. For many years the FBI did the same thing to Communist party cells, the German-American Bund, and KKK chapters. The Islamofascists in one day killed more Americans on our own soil than the Communists and KKK combined did. There's really no other way to determine which mosques are clean and which are hotbeds of anti-American subversion. Indeed, since most are subsidized by the Saudi Wahabists, the chances are that the majority spawn and sponsor terrorism. It's high time we started to regard much of Islam as a virulent, totalitarian political ideology, every bit as virulent as Communism and Nazism, that masks itself as a religion.

Excellent idea. I hope that our good Republican governor will run for President in 2008.

Why would we need to do that when the MSM already gives us a full view of all the Dems on display at church(s)?

Meanwhile a colossal new $20 million Mosque is slated for Boston. This odious place got a sweetheart deal on the land from the City of Boston.

Great idea. Atty. Gen. Alberto, are you listening? Is this too politically insensitive for you?

That's quite a leap.

Instead of wiretapping suspected students, send them back where they came from. Why bother watching them. Let them go back and study in whatever Muslim hole they crawled out of.

You're right, that's a much better idea. I was just so enthused that a politician from Mass. could even take this (obvious) step that I was excited.

Sounds good to me. Of course, the AC Hell-U won't tolerate such an action. After all, we might catch terrorists that way.

A RINO waiting for the FED to do the JOB in his own home state which he either fears or is powerless to do for what ever reason.

This should go in the same bin as making sure all manholes have covers on them, making sure that green light in one direction always meas red light in the other and vice versa, and mandatory barriers at rail crossings and draw bridges.

I assumed that the sarcasm in that remark would be evident.
I guess I was wrong.

Well he was born in 1947, so he was 20 in 67, but he didn't go and serve in the military? Nope, we can do better.
