Do you think for onr New York minute that congress would curb immigration from the Middle East and risk being labeled as racist, hate mongers by the left? Don't you believe that congress critters each have a large base of immigrants in their districts and that the profiling word would surface like a attack sub.

It would be amusing to watch but you will never see it unless it is done gradually and without fanfare.You far underweight the pro-immigration forces in this country and the role that it plays worldwide.

Given the horrors of 9/11 it would most definitely sell to the electorate, shrill voices of the left notwithstanding. The race card has been so overused it no longer has the intimating effect it once had. Most people in this new era intuitively understand that unrestrained immigration has put this country in great peril.

Muslims originating from the Middle East make up less than 2 percent of the national electorate. In most congressional districts their influence would be negligible.

The pro-immigration forces are a very small slice of the electorate and are miniscule compared to the citizens that want far less immigration. Who cares what they say anyway when the security of this nation is at risk? Don't kid yourself, the president and the party would pick up more considerably more support by acting in the best interests of America rather than endlessly pandering to every ethnic minority group in the country.
