And the screeners also seem to have a strange pre-occupation with laptop computers. We all know, no terrorist leaves home without his laptop, don't we? And now we get to pay an extra $10 surcharge on every plane ticket. Let me adjust my tinfoil hat here, ahem, one would almost think our government has ulterior motives in this whole thing.
Two things need to happen for the globalist vision to take it's next steps. Americans need to be subdued and religious fundamentalists need to be subdued. I made those predictions while clinton was still in office but never saw any reason why having a man with an R behind his name in the white house would change anything.
There is a resemblance.
Mr. Ridge, (l), is the head of our slapstick Homeland Security effort.
Mr. Howard, (r), was a fine slapstick comedian and actor.
Amen
I agree totally.
We Americans are expected to put up with warantless searches at airports, while our borders remain open to our enemies.
"If we can find a way to move illegal immigrants into legal channels, we would enable the border patrol to focus on the bad guys coming across the border rather than the people coming across to work."

The London-based Terrorism and Security Monitor is reporting that US intelligence sources are worried that terrorist Osama Bin Laden may be planning a major terrorist attack on U.S. soil.
US sources are said "to be particularly concerned about some kind of attack on New York, and they have recommended stepped-up security at the New York Stock Exchange and the Federal Reserve.
U.S. Authorities believe Bin Laden may have acquired chemical weapons.
Reports of Bin Ladens activities come on the heels of heightened agitation among Muslims against the West.
Yossef Bodansky, staff director of the Congressional Task Force on Terrorism and Unconventional Warfare says "There are rumblings throughout the Islamic community right now. Theres a lot of movement and talk. Its like a volcano just before the explosion.

Weve Hit the Targets
"Could the bombers have been stopped? NEWSWEEK has learned that while U.S. intelligence received no specific warning, the state of alert had been high during the past two weeks, and a particularly urgent warning may have been received the night before the attacks, causing some top Pentagon brass to cancel a trip. Why that same information was not available to the 266 people who died aboard the four hijacked commercial aircraft may become a hot topic on the Hill."

Operation Bojinka's bombshell
"But, Philippine and U.S intelligence officials said, the Bojinka operation called for a second, perhaps even more ambitious phase, as interrogators discovered when they pressed Murad about his pilot's licence. All those years in flight school, he confessed, had been in preparation for a suicide mission. He was to buy, rent, or steal a small plane, fill it with explosives and crash it into CIA headquarters.
There were secondary targets the terrorists wanted hit: U.S. Congress, the White House, the Pentagon and possibly some skyscrapers. The only problem, Murad complained, was that they needed more trained pilots to carry out the plot.
"It's so chilling," says Fariscal. "Those kamikaze pilots trained in America, just like Murad.
"The FBI knew all about Yousef's plans," she says. "They'd seen the files, been inside 603. The CIA had access to everything, too. Look," she adds, fishing in a plastic shopping bag for one of her most prized possessions, a laminated certificate of merit bearing the seal of the CIA. "Awarded to Senior Inspector Aida D.
