Then instead of working to bring more terrorists into America perhaps we should be working to close down our porous borders and make entry into this country thru legal means a bit more scrutinized? And as long as you are quoting the same tired speeches about "the evil rightwing McVeigh", lets not forget the radical lefties of the past, as well as now, however the real question we need to ask is do we really need to import any more terrorists? As you`ve pointed out we have our own to deal with, don`t we have more than enough already? Maybe you should try asking some citizens of Israel for their thoughts on that one, they seem to have lots of experience.

Isn't that special. Tim McVeigh wasn't evil? Being rightwing somehow makes what he did okay? Or is it just that what he did is old news, not significant?

I'm not so partisan that everybody on "my side" who does a wicked thing gets a pass. I hope I'm NEVER that partisan.

I've been thinking about your post and I've decided that you see all Iraqis as terrorists.

I've lived in that part of the world. They're just people. They would benefit very much from a free-market system (imagine living where your President could walk into a big bank and demand a billion in cash--and get it!) and our system, flaky as it is, is the best in the world. If we don't co-opt them maybe the UN will. Isn't that a scary thought?

I'd embrace your xenophobia in a moment if I thought there was ANYTHING we could do with or within our borders that would make us safe. I live in the Oklahoma City area, so I KNOW better. Don't tell me I'm repeating tired speeches...it sounds too much like "9/11 was two years ago...move on, already."
