>> Buschman,re:"perhaps for John Chen". Craig is a source of historic views, abeit sometimes radical and even on the border of 'nut' as you put it << some of my views only seem radical in the present age of radical liberalism. a century ago or perhaps even a half-century ago they were not radical at all. i am curious to hear just what views of mine you think are nuts. for example, just a half century ago president eisenhower launched "operation wetback" to address the hordes of illegal mexican immigrants pouring in over the border. can you imagine the uproar that would follow president bush launching an "operation wetback II"? TODAY'S LETTER: A Reader Remembers Operation Wetback; Even If National Review Doesn't vdare.com National Review neocon John J. Miller writes (“Illegal Amnesty? Bush’s Decision Poses Problems, But Also Promise,” Investor’s Business Daily, July 26, 2001): “Short of a Gestapo-like deportation effort, the millions of illegal aliens living in this country are here to stay.” I guess that Miller must consider President Eisenhower to have been a Nazi. In 1954, when the country first faced massive illegal immigration from Mexico, Ike’s “Operation Wetback” successfully rounded up and deported huge numbers of illegal aliens and brought the border under control. See Alien Nation, by Peter Brimelow, page 34, Chart 3. At the time, the neocons were still Communists and consequently unable to dictate the policies of a Republican administration, and William F. Buckley’s magazine, as they do today.
