Description

This follow-up discussion is less wild and woolly than some of our recent ones, but sparks still fly--as do provocative ideas. IG: "We are in the beginning of a presidential campaign, and ... what [the candidates] are deathly afraid of [is] they don't want to be in the position of running for President in September of 1996 and have another bomb go off, and have their opponents say, 'Why didn't you do something?' "... WFB: "I simply refuse to acknowledge that the situation is imminent or threatened where people will be deported because they sent a bandage or a banana to an organization which is affiliated with terrorists." IG: "That's what's happening in Los Angeles right now." ... DC: "One of the interesting things about the reaction [to Oklahoma City] is that even when the facts become clear that it's not an immigrant--that it's a domestic threat--the bill that is proposed is directed ... primarily against 'foreign terrorism.' "
