You are correct that they have permits and were
actually legal, but that didn't change anything.


Am I following this correctly? Homeland security, having failed to handle
the problem of illegal immigration, deported *legal* immigrants?

Based upon this, I need to take a better look at my neighbors. Bin Laden is
probably living in some suburban US town watching CNN. The largest threat
to his health is that he'll kill himself laughing at our "war against
terrorism".

Bingo!

Give a person a fish and you feed him for a day; teach a person to
use the Internet and he won't bother you for weeks.

Very nicely put.

And he laughed at pre-9/11 efforts to make the issue a "Law Enforcement"
effort (from his fatwa in 1996 until 2001). At the very least, he's been on
the run for nearly four years and much of his hierarchy is dead or in jail.

To call it a war on terrorism (a tactic) is like having a war against
pincers movements or end-runs.
