[Cicero]

Mueller is a loser. He has done nothing about the clintonoids in FBI headquarters. He should have been fired long ago, along with George Tenet.

I suspect Karl Rove is the person who is advising Bush to go easy on the Arabs. Rove is a smart guy, but pandering to terrorist-supporting Arabs is not the smartest idea in the world--because frankly it won't work.

I have divided opinions about Bush. He certainly has done a lot of good things in the War Against Terror. Court is still out on the Saudis. There were reasons why he couldn't go after them first, even though they are at the bottom of the whole terrorist threat, and Iraq still needs to be subdued before we go on to the next operation, which should probably be Syria or Iran.

I honestly don't know whether Bush will treat the Saudis as they deserve or not. It's a very delicate and difficult matter and it's too soon to tell, one way or the other.

Sen. Charles Schumer, D-N.Y., who joined Kyl at the hearing, stated, "While the potential Wahhabi influence in the U.S. Armed Forces is not well-documented, these organizations have succeeded in ensuring that militant Wahhabism is the only form of Islam that is preached to the 12,000 Muslims in federal prison."

I never thought I would see the day when I would agree with anything Schumer says! Although I'm not sure he's right about the Wahhabi influence in the military; I've heard some bad things about the Muslim clerics HIRED by our military. Remember the evil creep in Kuwait, the Muslim soldier, who murdered at least one or two with a planned attack. In connection with that attack I read something about Wahhabist influence in the military.
