Shifting INS not all it needs

A few weeks after September 11, I asked Immigration and Naturalization Service Commissioner James Ziglar a simple question: Had the INS checked the immigration status and criminal backgrounds of security screeners working on September 11 at Dulles, Newark and Logan International Airports

Last Thursday, President Bush proposed placing the INS under the proposed Department of Homeland Security, with a minimum of tweaking.

Yes, lets take a inneffective, crimminally mismanaged agency and move it somewhere else. THAT'LL make people feel better! Better yet, lets move it under the umbrella of an agency that doesn't now exist and should NEVER exist. Its very NAME--HOMELAND SECURITY-- is an insult to American Citizens who believe we are a NATION and not a HOMELAND. If Homeland Defense is allowed to be created, it will be one more way of brainwashing people through common usage that we no longer have a nation, but we are just a little ol' homeland with no borders to protect, and no reason for allegiance. Just nostalgia for the place you were born.

Fire the incompetent Libertarian that's in charge of the INS.

IMHO Ziglar should be fired and brought up on charges. He is charge of an agency that is supposed to enforce immigration law. Yet he says that it is impractical (I believe that was the word he used) to seek out illegal aliens and deport them. He is also against putting troops on the border for fear of offending someone.

Well, I am offended by him and his remarks and I am also offended that Bush allows this idiot to remain in charge of INS.

Since Bush could care less about our southern border, he has the perfect man for the job. 'Nuff said!!

"Commissioner Ziglar's reasoning was simple..."

Cult first, America second. Typical Libertarian.

Hmm. Just learned that he's Zig Ziglar's nephew.

"Fire the incompetent Libertarian that's in charge of the INS."

Can you imagine what would happen to any IRS head who publicly said it would be impossible as a practical matter to enforce federal tax laws and collect all tax liens because too many Americans owed too much uncollected taxes?

Sort of shows you what people the feral goverment really is for, doesn't it?

IMMIGRATION resource library: public-health facts, court decisions, local INS numbers!

You're right. If this bumbling Libertarian was in charge of the IRS, he would have been strung up by Congress already.
