Yes, and his name is Scott McClellan.

"Remember, the alternatives were Al Gore and John Kerry, making Bush the best choice by far."

Sometimes I wonder what is worse: A ship with a captain, steering it into the rocks. Or a rudderless ship. Perhaps we should add "none of the above" as a selection in the voting booth, in which case no one would hold the office. Unless, of course, someone changed their legal name to None of The Above.

Why the heck is this posted here?

It was posted to stir up all the kooks on FR.

Obviously it worked.

Just scanning through the old articles. I can't see where it was debunked, but I can't see where it was proved either.

The most interesting thing is just HOW MUCH people ENJOY being outraged.

The Perpetually Pissed off Crowd just looks for something to get enraged over.

Maybe they should go watch the ultra cheezy volcano movie on the SciFi Channel. It is so bad I've been laughing my ass off.

I'll be meeting them at the airport in Philly and handing out Danish flags as a welcome gift.

I have seen similar news stories earlier about accepting Muslim immigrants into the US.

And I don't know about numbers, but there are recent Muslim immigrants from Russia here in Vermont, in the Burlington and Montpelier areas and perhaps elsewhere.

I can't imagine why we are doing this, but it's absolutely typical of the State Department.

I wonder how many people wish there were a recall amendment to the Constitution right now.

Why the hell are there still people here defending President Bush?

So what else is new. I think the dismanteling of our country and system of government will continue, even past this disgusting Administration.

Having gone through a great many pages on Google, the ONLY references to this at all are this article, or a variety of moron rant pages or blogs referencing the article.

I think it's safe to conclude it's nonsense. It's amazing how quickly people completely ignore sources when they see something they want to be true.

One of my main objections to immigration policies these days, is that we absolutely swamp localities across this nation with saturation immigration. Here's another 7,000 immigrants that don't know anything about the U.S. except they heard it was a great place. They don't know english, our customs and will generally set up a mini-nation state where U.S. citizens used to live. In that enclave they will mostly speak their native tongue and assimilate over the next 300 years. Wonderful.

I live in a community that has had this happen to it. In some ways people do assimilate. In others they remain as if they still lived in the old country. It's very impactful on the community and not in positive ways.

I'm not convinced these folks will be symapthetic to Al Qaeda at all. That's not the point. The point is, why are we so damned desperate to ship anyone to the U.S. that wants to come, and if they don't know anything about western ways or speak English, so much the better.

This is simply balcanization by design.

What was posted just now is identical to the story from July 2004.

All these negative responses, I had to make sure I was at Free Republic...

Now where have I seen that behavior before?

Oh, yeah, now I remember...

Evidently you're not capable of reading and comprehending this thread. That being the case, why don't you put that sentence back in the dark damp place you just extracted it from.

I don't see anyone here that wants this to be true.

"Oh, I know; I voted for the man twice because of those alternatives, but that is small consolation right now."

Well at this point you gotta wonder if it would have been any different!

Being that the article is from Islam online, I wouldn't put to much in.

What this country needs is a law stating that no graduate of an Ivy League College can be elected to office or serve as a bureaucrat.

Bush was the lesser of evils. Anyone who thinks he's a great President is a fool.

Did you ever know an Ivy Leaguer who didn't screw things up?
