>>>... Garcia was U.S. attorney in the Southern District of New York from 1992 until he joined Commerce in 2001. As U.S. attorney, he handled the 1993 World Trade Center bombing case and won five convictions; and the prosecution of four people accused of conspiring with alleged terror mastermind Usama bin Laden to kill Americans at two U.S. embassies in East Africa...

Looks like President Bush might be taking a tougher stand on fighting illegal immigration. We shall see!

>>> ... and no i don't care if he has a spanish surname..

Could've fooled me. Using a term like panderlympics, I'd say you might have a problem with the man's race.

You DO seem toi be upset by surnames. As a newbie, you don't seem to be all that careful about actually reading the article and comprehending what lies therein, either.

The man handled a lot of things, which were precursors of 9/11/01. That would make him rather more, than less up to speed about finding terrorists. That's the name of the game, right now ! OTOH, all you seem to be aggrivated about, is the influx of Mexican illegals. Let's go after the trrorists, so that we can avoid another ( or worse ) 9/11; shall we ? Or would you prefer every Mexican to be rounded up and deported, whilst we totally ignore the fanatic Islamacists ?

Attorney General John Ashcroft said Garcia "will lead tough enforcement of our immigration laws to protect Americans from terrorism and secure our homeland."

Interesting the way govt officials always stress the "buzz words": protect americans from terrorism. They obviously have been directed to convince/reassure citizens that their government passionately desires to protect them from all terrorist threats, when anyone with an ounce of sense realizes that fed law enforcement and counterterrorist forces are nothing more than a bunch of "keystone kops". The governments greatest fear seems to be citizens awakening to the fact that they must look to themselves for the defense of their families, homes, communities and country. A federal government, with its armed forces deployed all over the world, that cannot or will not even protect it's own borders is incapable of preventing terrorist attack by any of the hundreds of islamic cells already inside our borders. Clearly the answer is the Isreali/Swiss homeland defense model in which all able bodied males are armed military reservists. The US government however apparently fears its own citizens more than it fears the medieval demonic cultist islamics.

Not just a cheapshot on your part, but a loaded and bigoted cheapshot. It would have been better if you had something sensible or substantive to say... something other than a cheap baiting insult.

It is only a cheapshot if wrong.

This racist statement insinuates that everyone who opposes illegal immigration is a bigot. That is not true in my case and the majority of others here who oppose illegals and support upholding the rule of law.

There is nothing wrong with bigotry. I am a bigot on many issues. I wish you whiners would learn the meanings of words before you spout them.
