Even a few American pundits believed him - before his army was annihilated in four days. The terrorists in the Middle East and their Taliban sponsors in Afghanistan now promise to do all sorts of horrible things to us - from an unending jihad of terror, to murdering Americans on sight worldwide, to hints of gassing us in our schools and offices. We are told to be aware that our "new" enemies will be disguised, untraceable.......

Three weeks ago, when the conversation was about farmworkers and not terrorists, a bill to allow illegal immigrants to obtain driver's licenses in California seemed to be heading for approval. -- But now as it sits on Gov.
