"Congress has it within its power to prevent the next attack, but it won't. When the Sears Tower is attacked, the president is assassinated, St. Patrick's Cathedral is vaporized, anthrax is released in the subway systems or Disneyland is nuked, remember: Congress could have stopped it, but didn't."

And:

"As the entire country has been repeatedly lectured, most Muslims are amazingly peaceful, deeply religious, wouldn't hurt a fly. Indeed, endless invocations of the pacific nature of most Muslims is the only free speech it is safe to engage in these days."

Could not have said this better myself.

Perhaps NEXT time we will respond like something serious happened.

She is Dead-on! But, you know her proposals will never be enacted in this society paralised by the Politicly-correct who complain about "punishing the innocent". [rolleyes]
You know that terroism is going to keep on happening just because this country is too whimpy to hurt anyone's feelings.

By Ann Coulter
After the World Trade Center was bombed by Islamic fundamentalists in 1993, the country quickly chalked it up to a zany one-time attack and five minutes later decided we were all safe again. We weren't. We aren't now. They will strike again. Perhaps they will wait another eight years. But perhaps not.

The enemy is in this country right now. And any terrorists who are not already here are free to immigrate. The government has been doing an excellent job rounding up suspects from the last two attacks. But what about the next attack? We thought there was only one murderous Islamic cell in America the last time, too.

Congress has authority to pass a law tomorrow requiring aliens from suspect countries to leave. As far as the Constitution is concerned, aliens, which is to say non-citizens, are here at this country's pleasure. They have no constitutional right to be here.

Congress has it within its power to prevent the next attack, but it won't. When the Sears Tower is attacked, the president is assassinated, St. Patrick's Cathedral is vaporized, anthrax is released in the subway systems or Disneyland is nuked, remember: Congress could have stopped it, but didn't.

Pious invocations of the Japanese internment are absurd. For one thing, those were U.S. citizens. Citizens can't be deported. So far -- thank God -- almost all the mass murderers of Americans have been aliens.

But even more blindingly obvious: There was no evidence that the attack on Pearl Harbor was staged by Japanese saboteurs living in California. The Japanese internment was a pure land grab implemented by liberal politicians -- President Franklin D. Roosevelt and California Gov. Earl Warren (later the namesake of the infamous Warren Court). The internment was vigorously opposed by J. Edgar Hoover.

This time, the very nature of the enemy is that they have infiltrated this country and pass themselves off as law-abiding, quiet immigrants. The entire modus operandi of this enemy is to smuggle mass murderers to our shores.

But the country refuses to respond rationally. Rather, Congress is busily contemplating a series of "anti-terrorism" measures most notable for their utter irrelevance to the threat. What precisely would a national ID card accomplish? The hijackers were in this country legally! A few may have overstayed their visas by a few days -- a minor bureaucratic oversight that they surely would have remedied had they not been about to commit suicide in a monstrous attack.

Sen. Joe Biden, D-Del., has bravely proposed that we take the aggressive step of asking aliens in the country to register periodically with the government so we know where they are. That's already the law in Germany. Several of the hijackers in this attack lived in Hamburg; they obediently complied. The mastermind of the most vicious terrorist attack in the history of the world, Mohammed Atta, was in Florida on a "vocational status" visa (in order to attend flight school). Let's say Atta had registered. Now what, Joe?

As the entire country has been repeatedly lectured, most Muslims are amazingly peaceful, deeply religious, wouldn't hurt a fly. Indeed, endless invocations of the pacific nature of most Muslims is the only free speech it is safe to engage in these days.

This is a preposterous irrelevancy. Fine, we get it. The New York Times can rest assured that every last American has now heard the news that not all Muslims are terrorists. That's not the point. Not all Muslims may be terrorists, but all terrorists are Muslims -- at least all terrorists capable of assembling a murderous plot against America that leaves 7,000 people dead in under two hours.

How are we to distinguish the peaceful Muslims from the fanatical, homicidal Muslims about to murder thousands of our fellow citizens? Are the good Muslims the ones who live quiet lives, pray a lot and obey the law? So did the architects of Bloody Tuesday's mass murder. Are the peaceful Muslims the ones who loudly proclaim their hatred of Osama Bin Laden? Mohammed Atta did that, too.

The only thing we know about them -- other than that they live among us -- is that they are foreign-born and they are Muslims. The government has been remarkably tight-lipped about precisely how many Muslim visitors we are currently accommodating, but from unofficial estimates, there appear to be more than a million. Even if the attorney general instigated latter-day Palmer raids, it will take years and years to investigate and infiltrate every potential terrorist cell operating on our shores. The investigations should not be conducted while the enemy continues residing here, plotting the next attack.

It's an extreme measure, but we face an extreme threat. It is suicidal naivete to think we can simply seal off every water supply, air vent, food supply and crop duster from now until the end of time. We cannot search every truck, every passenger, every shopper, every subway, every person entering every building -- every American every day.

It is impossible to stop Islamic fundamentalists who believe that slaughtering thousands of innocent Americans will send them straight to Allah. All we can do is politely ask aliens from suspect nations to leave -- with the full expectation of readmittance -- while we sort the peace-loving immigrants from the murderous fanatics.

More benefits of the plan next week, but the beauty part of the Terrorist Deportation Plan can't wait. There will be two fail-safes: (1) Muslim immigrants who agree to spy on the millions of Muslim citizens unaffected by the deportation order can stay; and (2) any Muslim immigrant who gets a U.S. senator to waive his deportation -- by name -- gets to stay.

This is brutally unfair to the Muslim immigrants who do not want to kill us. But it's not our fault. It is the fault of the terrorists who are using their fellow Muslims as human shields. So far, America's response to a calculating cold-blooded enemy has been to say, "Excuse me, you seem to have dropped your box-cutter."

Words fail to describe the hatred feminists and female liberals have for Ann Coulter.  I mean, go to www.democraticunderground.com and search for Ann Coulter.  The intensity of their hate for her is off the charts.

Natually, she rocks.

Her proposal is unrealistic, and strictly unfair to large numbers of  innocent muslim immigrants that would be affected.

Consider this scenerio, two muslim immigrants, their kids are born in this country and are therefore US citizens. WHat are you going to do? Kick out the parents but leave the kids? What about adoption? What if a muslim immigrant adopt a US citizen? To generalize, what should happen in all cases where one member of a family is a muslim immigrant, as in not full citizen. Do we kick all of them out? If we don't, then there are going to be loopholes. So we're not safe anyway.

Here's my proposal, we assimilate all the middle eastern countries. We americanize every last one of them. We should brain wash their children.

That lady has an abundance of common sense.
Why can't there be more like her.
Of course it would be unfair to immigrants.  The message should be "those fanatics ruined it for everybody"  
The US Army practices group punishment and is damn proud of it.  In effect, if you screw up, your platoon/company will suffer.  Then, your buddies will set you straight.  It's simple, and remarkably effective.  Problem is, even suggesting such a plan would be political suicide.  So we wait, and wonder when the other shoe will drop...

The army is somewhat different from the civilian populous. People who joined the army volunteered for that sort of thing. Civilians are entitled to rights and freedoms guarenteed under the consitution. You can't just group punish people who have the same rights and freedoms as everybody else and who didn't do anything wrong. I don't see how you can complain about the government taking away your gun rights everyday and not see the infringement on the rights and freedoms of these people that putting such a proposal into action would cause.

You're wrong, civilians aren't the ones who have rights and freedoms guaranteed in the Constitution - [b]citizens[/b] do. Aliens don't. The people Ann Coulter is talking about aren't citizens, but aliens. They have no "right" to be here, and as she says, are only here because we let them enter and stay. We would be infringing on no citizen's rights by rounding up every single alien in the country and sending them back to wherever they came from, and quite possibly we'd be [b]protecting[/b] the citizens to whom the Constitution applies. Exceptions should be made for people with resident alien spouses who haven't been here long enough to become citizens, but other than that, sending all of them home so the chances of the next attack coming from within are greatly reduced.

Aliens often live in communities with their own kind (for example, RA Muslims often choose to live in a place with a nearby mosque, [i]halal[/i] grocery, culturally familiar people, etc), and this would tell these that they'd better start policing their own, or we'll do it for them. The terrorists and their supporters in this country don't operate in a vacuum, after all. Take away the aliens who are more likely to support them, and you've taken away Mao's "sea" from "the fish."

Just think of how many jobs would become available to the good Citizens if we removed
the Aliens.

I see it as a solution to the many citizens who currently collect welfare and have no desire to better themselves.
Put their lazy asses to work.

Sometimes daily I am approached for money while I am working, by people who have no real reason that they can not work. Merely their choice.
Yet they are able to stand outside the stores and panhandle or walk back and forth between the Welfare office and the Liquor Store.

I see people with major physical deformaties who work 40 hr. weeks. Their choice.

rant off.

This country has already started the slow spiral of self-destruction thanks to the PC movement.  It may not happen in my lifetime but it will happen.  The Roman empire fell because of internal greed and corruption and its inability to defend its borders from outside "pressures".  Sound familiar?  These wackly liberals have this fatalistic love-hate relationship with our country that is going to be our eventual doom.

Hell we can't keep out a million or more poor undocumented immigrants that pour over the boarder every year - why attack those here legally now?

Sure we can - we just don't. And they're not "undocumented immigrants", they're illegal aliens. As long as we continue to use PC terminology instead of correct terms, and attempt to solve the problems with PC solutions that do nothing to hinder the perpetrators but everything to harm or inconvenience US citizens and their livelihoods, we're not going to see things get any better.
