War on Terror Batting Average

U.S. immigration agencies say anti-terrorism is their primary mission, but they tried to deport only 12 people on terrorism-related charges from 2004 through 2006, according to a private research study released yesterday.
The 12 represent a tiny fraction of the 814,073 people the government tried to expel from the country during the three years.

Meanwhile, Back to Osama bin Laden

During a Rose Garden news conference on Thursday, President Bush was asked by New York Times reporter Jim Rutenberg why Osama bin Laden is still at large. Bush responded:

"Why is he at large? Because we haven't got him yet, Jim. That's why. And he's hiding, and we're looking, and we will continue to look until we bring him to justice. We've brought a lot of his buddies to justice, but not him. That's why he's still at large. He's not out there traipsing around, he's not leading many parades, however. He's not out feeding the hungry. He's isolated, trying to kill people to achieve his objective."

I just think that George Bush really thought he could give the Iraqis a better life. But I think it was arrogant for a guy in his fifties to not realize that he was way too stupid to be the person who could deliver this. – Bill Maher
