SCORE ONE FOR DICK MORRIS

It strikes me that the old Clinton-enabler has a very good point in his latest column. Why are we admitting any students from countries that sponsor terrorism? Subjecting all of them to lengthy interrogations about their possible terror connections seems to me hugely time-consuming, expensive and prone to failure. And the possible sympathy some might acquire for the United States by studying here is far outweighed by the costs of even one terrorist finding his way here as a result. Look, I’m a big fan of immigration, natch. Student visas for foreign students are a great idea and a critical part of this country’s educational excellence. But this is clearly one area where new circumstances merit changes. Why not increase the number of student visas from friendly countries to make up financially for those from countries that still harbor terrorists? That seems like a preferable compromise to me.
