"No one could have known at the time how deadly this man Sami was..."

As a matter of fact, a lot of people did know, including (if some stories I've been reading are correct) the Secret Service, who advised against letting Al-Arian have access. Now the question is, who overruled them? They should be scrubbing White House bathrooms for the rest of the term.

Wrong-O. Whoever is responsible should be immediately discharged, but only if an investigation shows no further criminal intent; in which case, prosecute.

If you live in a glass house, you'd better be squeaky clean - especially after the daily filth of the Krinton Barn. Stern policy is essential when you consider the enormous number of people in Washington that deserve to have their dirty laundry aired.

In the case of Alec Baldwin...we somebody without sin to cast the first stone.

That would be the wonder-boy, Karl Rove. Although he is a clever and successful political operative, he has performed an abject disservice to his and our President in guiding his agenda on the basis of pure "politics."

It is unconscienable and despicable that the President, who relies on him for sound judgement, should have been placed in a situation of compromise on any issue of security. It makes him look like a patsy, which he is not.

If Rove is SO driven to orchestrate and manipulate perceptions (ala Dick Morris) and is so lacking in discretion, I hope his roll gets knocked down a peg or two. I wonder if Karen Hughes was a part of this decision .. somehow, I think not.

It WAS known that this man had questionable connections .. that's why the Secret Service insisted that the son be removed from the White House .. finally.

Karl Rove .. wake up!! I hope Dubyah keeps you in a very tight box, and uses your skills in areas that don't compromise his integrity or safety.

Miz, you and posters 17 & 23 all surmise the same thing and that is who indeed overruled the FBI and CIA. I don't think you have to look any further than Bill Clinton's White House. The same preposterous, ludicrous imposter of a president who told us Education was fixed; Health was fixed; Aids was almost cured and smoking, that dastardly habit was licked and Bill Gates was Reno’ed for good measure. He simply did not want to rock his luxury cruse with something so upsetting as Sami and his terrorists who were gaining at a gallop in American and around the world. Coddling Arafat and other terrorist within the United Nations was much more to their liking, Hillary, Madeline, Janet, Al and Bill loved the rosy little world they painstakingly photo-oped and painted for America all the while pulling this nation down morally, spiritually and economically by spending like drunken sailors, to a Third World position.

Sami could indeed work unfettered at his leisure to undermine America as there was no one to stop him and a White House that did not care.
