"I'm amazed that the president would make this [announcement] on national TV and not inform us of these details through the appropriate channels," he said.

Who does he think he's impressing here anyway? Yeesh. And love the companion piece:

Bush Renames West Coast's Tallest Building -- Oops, Never Mind.

A-mazing.

The stupidity is truly astounding.

oh heck I was going to leave this one alone

seems they forgot to inform the mayor of LA about this announcement. Seems they like to forget there is a left coast to this country.

and just because they have in custody someone who says they were going to do something, doesn't mean it was foiled. Doesn't mean there was really anything going to happen in the first place.

Does this mean all Asian men will now be required to fly shoeless?

I know I've changed my choice in shoes I wear when I fly - because they seem to think I should!

What bothers me about the whole "they used Asians" in this...

Is that they've gone from Muslims of Arab decent to Asians too. And you know what I look like. Hell, *I* could be a survellance target.

I voluntarily had them make DoJ files for both us - it's required for the adoption thang.

Talking to Jim? This stuff indicated the illegal wiretapping began before 9/11.

Ah-yup.

You'd think we'd have learned not to catagorize people by ethnicity when we interred the Japanese and it turned out to be for no reason.

FIFTY+ YEARS AGO!

Dear gods. This just keeps getting worse.

A funny thing. I've known several of our troops to convert to Islam after going to the Mid East and learning about it. I happened to work with a blue-eyed blonde Moslem for several years. His wife eventually converted and they are raising their kids in thier faith. None of them would pass the stereotype test.

*facesmacks* Stupid stupid stupid. The most peaceful people I've ever met were either Hindu or Moslem....

Criminals? Are criminals. They come in every faith known to man.
