They're both ideas Bush had when he came into office. Bush speechwriter David Frum has written of his first Oval Office meeting with Bush, a few weeks into his presidency, at which the president explained his "determination to dig Saddam Hussein out of power in Iraq." At about the same time, Bush was meeting with Mexican president Vicente Fox to try to hammer out an immigration deal that would combine a guest worker program with some legalization of existing illegal Mexican immigrants. (Plans for such a broad deal were put on hold only after 9/11 made immigration a national security issue--but Bush diligently resumed pursuit of the deal, just as he diligently resumed pursuit of his pre-election plans for Social Security.) 2. They both have an idealistic basis. Bush was sympathetic to the way Middle East democrats had been frustrated by "realist" foreign policies, and he's clearly sympathetic to the problems of poor immigrants who come to the U.S.

Rights and Rockets
I was home two weeks ago, getting ready for evening prayers, sitting with my wife and child, and suddenly my mobile starting ringing. He said, I'm Rami, I'm from Shabak the Israeli security agency Shin Bet and I'm responsible for your area. What are you doing? I guess you're with your wife and your two children?' I said no, and he said Yes, your two children are with you, but now you've just moved out of the room'. I said, what do you want? He said If you don't stop your rockets it's only a matter of time before you are targeted'." Anyone who has ever seen a modern spy movie knows what you're supposed to do next: hurl the phone as far as you can and then dive from the building before it or the telephone explodes. Next, go underground, and never use a phone or a computer again.
OCTOPUS GARDEN: Should Lindros be in the Hall?
Will he be inducted in the Builder category? His stubbornness ultimately contributed to the Colorado Avalanche mini-dynasty." Remember, the Nordiques/Avs got Peter Forsberg from the Flyers for Lindros. (And the Wings thank him for that.) CBSsports.com ran a poll asking if Lindros should make the Hall, and the last time we checked, 62% said no. A Hockey News poll was running 66% negative. So it might be a tough sell. The real problem might be that Lindros couldn't live up to others' expectations. He just wasn't the Next One he was supposed to be. Isn't Igor a lock? Speaking of this year's induction class, there wasn't room for Igor Larionov, who had a stellar international career, was a trailblazer for Russian players coming to the NHL and played a key role in three Stanley Cup winners for the Wings.
