This is an old article (April 12). On April 16, Bush signed a Presidential Determination gave the PLO six months more in D.C., by waiving the provisions of section 1003 of the Anti-Terrorism Act of 1987, Public Law 100-204.

I believe the bill outlawing the PLO has also been buried. Now all they need is office space.

PLO representative Hassan Abdel Rahman said yesterday he was not surprised by the legislative effort. "They been doing it for 20 years," he said. "But evicting us won't solve the conflict in the Middle East.

Yeah, but at least we won't have to see your lying face on TV every night.

"Sens. Dianne Feinstein, California Democrat, and Mitch McConnell, Kentucky Republican, are the sponsors of the bill that would declare the PLO to be a terrorist organization and lift the U.S. visas of its representatives."

Even a blind squirrel finds a nut on occasion. Kudos to the socialist from California.
