I don't approve of unlimited illegal immigration either. But there's a difference between coming into the U.S. to get a job and coming into Iraq to blow people up.

Yes, there's a big danger that terrorists may be among the other immigrants. But they haven't started blowing people up--at least not yet.

The more important consideration is that it was a bipartisan, patriotic consensus that "politics stops at the edge of the water." We were reminded of that not long ago when a few Republicans ventured to criticize clinton for bombing aspirin factories in order to take the spotlight off of Monica. But the Democrats completely ignore that rule, with the complicity of the MSM. Senator or not, kerry has no business interfering in delicate foreign policy and national security matters like this, without clearance from the President and/or the State Department.

Aside from the obvious ethical slap in the face and lack of etiquette, is there anything illegal about this? It should be, but I really don't know if it is. It's my impression that meetings of this nature require Presidential approval. Or is that just a courtesy that most people observe?

RULES? We don't need no stinking rules. Rules are only for the little people not for the elites in the democrat party.
