Kill pro-"gay" bill / Fort Dix Six

On the Homeland Security front: The Fort Dix Six
Memo to Democrats ready to cut and run from Iraq:
The war nearly came to our soil once again this week with the foiled plot of six jihadis who sought to attack the Army base at Fort Dix, New Jersey, with guns and grenades. The plan was unveiled thanks to the vigilance of a store clerk who notified the FBI when the men delivered a tape of suspicious material that they wanted converted to DVD. (Yes, he was profiling.)
The tape showed ten men firing “assault weapons” while calling for jihad and shouting “Allah Akbar” (god is great). After an investigation, the men, all in their 20s, were arrested after trying to buy AK-47s and M-16s from an informant.

Bush to kill pro-"gay" bill?
Liberals in the House of Representatives have passed the "hate crimes" bill, H.R. 1592, the Local Law Enforcement Hate Crimes Prevention Act, by a margin of 237 to 180. The Senate version (S. 1105) deceptively and sensationally titled "The Matthew Shepard Act" is expected to be voted on soon. But to the consternation of the bill's proponents on the left, and to the relief of those who value the constitutional mandate of "equal protection under the law," the President's office has signaled that a veto is likely should the bill arrive on his desk.

This clearly unconstitutional piece of legislation would grant individuals who choose to engage in homosexual behavior ("sexual orientation") or cross-dressers suffering from gender identity disorder ("gender identity") favored treatment over other citizens by elevating them to a preferentially protected class of victim.

The 14th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution guarantees "equal protection under the law" for all citizens — regardless of their sexual preference. renewamerica.us

6 NABBED IN TERROR PLOT [update]

Evil Hid In Plain Sight
Six foreign-born Muslims, hellbent on jihad, were charged yesterday with forging a sinister terror plot to attack New Jersey's Fort Dix Army base and slaughter as many soldiers as they could, authorities said.

The men - three of them brothers and all in their 20s and from the former Yugoslavia and the Middle East - allegedly had worked for nearly two years to collect maps and weapons and train themselves in how to use them and were just steps away from launching their assault.

Little did they know, the feds said, that their twisted scheme had been infiltrated by undercover FBI informants who surreptitiously made an audiotape of them discussing the plan for 16 months.

WELL, here is the thanks we get. Eight years ago, America opened its arms to tens of thousands of ethnic Albanian refugees from Kosovo. The first planeload landed at Fort Dix. Military leaders worked day and night to turn the base into a child-friendly village. They coordinated medical checkups, mental health and trauma counseling and ethnic-food preparations.

6 men charged with plotting to attack soldiers at Fort Dix

Six men described by federal prosecutors as "Islamic militants" were arrested on charges they plotted to attack the Fort Dix Army base and "kill as many soldiers as possible," authorities said Tuesday.

The six were scheduled to appear in U.S. District Court in Camden later Tuesday to face charges of conspiracy to kill U.S. servicemen, said Michael Drewniak, a spokesman for the U.S. Attorney's Office in New Jersey.

U.S. agents who infiltrated the group arrested the men last night and charged five of them with conspiring to kill U.S. soldiers. They face a maximum sentence of life in prison if convicted. A sixth was charged with aiding and abetting illegal possession of firearms. He faces 10 years in prison. More --- Muslims fear backlash from Fort Dix attack plot

Before the next national Election Day arrives, every patriotic voter must discern the traitors of our country who are out-and-out obstructionists. The obnoxious, lying accusers of the president have been attacking and maligning President George W. Bush during his entire tenure in office. Their extreme radical behavior is neither excusable nor acceptable. We are at war against terror, not the president. ~ Marie Jon'

How unfair of the authorities to use surveilence to pursue and capture these would-be murderers.
THANK GOD FOR THE PATRIOT ACT. pdf
Equally important, however, is Bush's willingness to allow the authorities to use the tools at their disposal.....It's one thing to have great tools, but they are useless without the ability and desire to use them. A lesson we learned from the failures of the Clinton Admin. ~ Pero
