I understand how NBC and ABC are going to try to spin this against President Bush, but why in the hell are we letting 14 Syrians run amuck on an airplane while Grandma Whitey has to be stripsearched before they allow her to board?
Because we dare not offend our enemy. As sickening as it is, all this became utterly predictable at the moment we changed the name of our war in order not to offend anyone. (The original name of our anti-terror operation was INFINITE JUSTICE, which offended Muslims who said only Allah can dispense justice.) That was quite a bellwether as to the state of mind of our leaders. This latest crap is just more proof of the insanity.

I don't understand the posts that complain that the liberal media will use this article to attack President Bush's airline security program. Who gives a rat's patootie if this happens. The airline security that we have is run by a Demopuke, Norman Mineta, who's afraid that Americans will put Arabs into internment camps. Get real, everyone. We're on the road to another 9-11 if the government doesn't begin dealing with reality, not political correctness.
Yes, we'd be better off altogether if BOTH Republicans and Democrats would worry about our national security and quit trying to play every little thing for some sort of partisan advanatage. Not to mention worrying about political correctness.
