I agree. It's one hell of an attitude. But if my president and my congree
want all visitors to have passports, I will very thinkingly go along with that.
Canada was untouched by 9 11
Wasn't a terrorist apprehended at the boorder a year ago. A guy who wanted
to blow up Los Angeles? I think so.
We have not been attacked since Pearl Harbor (and I am a combat veteran of
the war that followed) and I don't want my kids or my grandchildren to go
through what I endured.
Sorry, Carl. If Mr. Bush says "passports required", just get one. Put it
in your pocket. No one will harass you. The government simply wants
identification, and that isn;t a bad idea.
Try going to Europe without a passport. Lots of luck
