Where was Ashcroft when two skyscrapers, four airplanes, and thousands of people were destroyed on 9/11? Oh yeah, the FBI had arrested many of the suspects before, but let most of them go for one reason or another...

dog would prefer we wait until AFTER his Muslim pals commit their crimes, before we "hold them for questioning" or (gasp) "arrest them for any one of their numerous violations of US law, primarily US immigration law."

Many of the "rags" as you racists call them, are American citizens and are in jail simply because they aren't white.

If you have evidence that any Middle-Easterners currently being held are American citizens, produce it.

Otherwise, you're obfuscating, as is your wont.

Your credibility on matters relating to this war on terrorism is non-existent.

Which ones?

And you and Demigod are screaming that Ashcroft let those currently being held go.

How many of those currently being held, ALL OF THEM IN VIOLATION OF VISAS, might be terrorists?

You guys are just bitchers, who want to have it both ways.

If Ashcroft lets suspects go, he's negligent. If he detains them, he's violating their rights.

Such is the mind of the twisted -- devoid is the "common-sense gene" when in debate.

We need to get this information out to the general public so they know that our government is doing its job. While not as exciting as an armed confrontation, our senators and representatives need to see that John Ashcroft and the methods GW has put in place, work! Mr. Leahy et al, need to be embarassed by their efforts to shoot this approach down.

BTTT!

The Libs will argue till they can't breathe anymore that it is a civil rights violation because 2 innocent cabbies and 3 convenience store clerks were out of work for months.

Hell, with the Dems and Jumpin' Jim Jeffords in control of the Senate, look for bigtime $$$ going to the cabbies and 7/11ers as well as a national holiday for 'Johnny Taliban' Walker!!

What we should concentrate on is arresting those who have committed crimes and leave the racial profiling to Jesse Jackson and other race-baiters like him.

Nice counter-punch; but you need to leave my homey, JJ out of this. [:-)

It looks like you scan like I do and miss stuff. The article said The Capitol was the target. Maybe the anthrax stuff was the diversion but since the sleepers were picked up, they couldn't carry out the mission.
