#1 PC wins, national suicide rules. Is this what it really means? The Swedish nuns are an equal threat as a Saudi male to the US? This is madness.

#2 "Our long term goal", senior homeland security official Asa Hutchinson told Arab civil rights leaders Friday, "is to treat (all visitors) the same way, and not based on where you come from."

When 15 of the 19 9/11 hijackers came from Saudi Arabia, it is impossible to justify such world-class stupidity.

Is it time to discuss whether anyone can justify voting for Bush or just sit out the election? Anyone out there want to throw out a counterargument?

#4 Raj: At least with Bush there's a chance we can get it right. If we get Lurch, we are in serious trouble. I don't want my daughter wearin' a burkha so I'm asking you to vote Bush!

#5 MyGod! I think it really *will* take a couple more 9/11's before these *IDIOTS* get a clue....

#7 Likewise, when the president's "thinking big" instead of getting down in the nitty-gritty, you get incidents of stupidity like this; if it's not an order "from the top", it's just this guy being an idiot ...

#8 
Folks, they already have a clue! And the clue is, let's have a few more 9/11's. That can be the only answer, they're trying to either destroy us.

Or they're setting in place the circumstances to justify a massive retaliation against the Islamic World. I say, why wait. Let's do `em now!

Nony

#10 "Our long term goal", senior homeland security official Asa Hutchinson told Arab civil rights leaders Friday, "is to treat (all visitors) the same way, and not based on where you come from."

Know what my long term goal is, Asa? To hopefully still be alive to watch you dance around this after it blows up in your face.

#11 It's possible that Mr. Hutchinson is a Democrat who feels this is the appropriate way to preserve civil liberties .... or a way to put the Bush administration in the position of having to publicly "discriminate against Arabs" in an election year.

Stupidity is common, but gaming and manipulation of PR is pretty common inside the beltway, too.

#12 Asa's no fool or Democrat (I know....repetitious) - there's more to this

#13 I hope everyone here finally realizes that both sides of the aisle are stuffed with f&%king morons. It's difficult to tell which is the greater source of peril, al Qaeda or our own politicians.

#14 Hutchinson was actually one of the House managers of the Clinton impeachment-- and I was pretty impressed by him back them.

I'm perplexed....

#15 Is maybe "long term goal" the key, here?

#16 Well said Wuzzalib. I hope thats the case.
