Can someone remind me why Pres. Bush felt the need to address this "loving" crowd?

Palestinian policemen read a leaflet dropped over the impoverished Gaza Strip warning civilians to stay away from houses used to store militant weapons or face being killed in Gaza City. Israel has pressed on with its air, sea and ground offensive on the Gaza Strip, where nearly 100 people have been killed in two weeks, and warned civilians that homes storing weaponry were now targets.(AFP/Thomas Coex)

RE the letter. In any of the parts you snipped out, did he invite her, as he did the President, to become Muslim?

17:38 Hezbollah TV: IAF helicopter strikes southern Beirut (Haaretz)

must be pretty confident to send a helicopter gunship that far into enemy territory

Perhaps it's time to tie Homeland Security funding to states that do more to get rid of illegal immigrants.

Yes, I saw it. I'm furious. If they need housing assistance, then why did they come back as Americans. To live off of us taxpayers until the bombing ends? And the list included grief counselers. Wonder if they would have gotten those in Lebanon? I don't mean to seem uncompassionate, but I think they ought to be returned to the middle of the war zone. Today.

I asked a cynical question yesterday as to whether there were any Lebanese living in Lebanon.

Rebel-Yell2 replied that most folks living there have three passports. One Lebanese; one from a major country - U.S.; U.K.; France etc. and a third from a neighboring country.

WOW! I have water, canned food and batteries in my emergency supplies, these folks have passports!

Going to the hostile NAACP is but another example of President Bush's courage and willingness to go into the belly of the beast IMO.

"All over the Arab Middle East, there are hordes of children running around in one shoe looking for their Teddy Bears."

More likely that there are Muslims carrying sacks of kid items who throw one or two of them on rubble after a hit.

I heard on local news this morning that one of and main reasons that Hezbellah has not struck the US is our military would come down on them and because they are afraid that their fund raising would be diminished. (cigarette sells, welfare, food stamps, baby formula) were some of the Hezbellah fund raising items name.

Yes, I saw him. His father was over there doing business in Lebanon and took his father along. The mother didn't look Lebanonese and the kid had red hair--looked like his mom. His name is Ryan, so I assume that she may be Irish? But I did have a question about him. I saw him interviewed on CNN and he said that his dad got on the ship to Cyprus and from there was going on to Morocco. They separated b/c Ryan learned that the flight was coming into BWI and they lived in MD. Then I saw him a few minutes later on Fox. But this time he said that his dad would be going on to Turkey. I just wondered...

I had a bad experience with a Muslim neighbor. He was thoroughly obnoxious and threatened to blow up his neighbors' buildings. It got so bad we had to get a restraining order against him. Needlesstosay he ignored that and pulled a gun on his landlord. The police came but were reluctant to take action until one of us shoved the restraining order in front of them.

Finally got rid of the guy after a few very tense months.

BTW the guys name was Osama........

After the rally, someone placed a Palestinian-style scarf around Zapatero's neck and the prime minister allowed himself to be photographed wearing it.

Prime Minister Jose Luis Rodriguez Dhimmi Zapatero.

How this nation has changed. I remember back in the 80's when the students evacuated from Grenada got off the plane and kissed the ground!

Wow. Excellent memory. You are SO right! Maybe we're granting citizenship a little too quickly and easily these days?

You know it's the only thing that makes sense, isn't it? I often wonder why we haven't gotten hit by them...but I guess we are a cash cow...why ruin a good thing..

I've been hoping that a LOT of these evacuees should be put on some kind of a list where their movements are watched. I'm really afraid that terrorists--or potential terrorists--are slipping in with Americans. I also have questions about just how "American" these Americans are anyway. I'm not referrring to ethnicity; I'm referring to the heart and mind.
