I saw Red Dawn a number of times.

How about this for a plot change to that movie: Replace the Soviet troops jumping into the middle of America with cargo containers full of PLA troops from China. Arm them with chem and bio weapons, and have them get out of their containers simultaneously in ports all across the US.

The American left would be their local support, and they would be backed by Russian nuclear launch threats if we didn't surrender.

Sensenbrenner, R-Wis., wanted additional provisions dealing with illegal immigration. "Unfortunately, the Senate has refused to consider many of the provisions, tagging them as extraneous or controversial," he said.

A group of 9/11 families praised Sensenbrenner for holding out for his illegal immigration provisions.

"Even though the 108th Congress is at its very end, we urge it to let the bill die until the next Congress rather than further weaken the immigration and border security provisions," said the 9/11 Families for a Secure America in a statement.

We owe Sensenbrenner our thanks.
