Tighter rules for international visas proposed
Government officials told CNN Tuesday that the step is intended to prevent entry into the United States by non-American travelers who might not qualify for a visa for a variety of reasons.

The move is partially in response to new intelligence suggesting terrorists might hijack planes in the United States as they travel through to other countries.

Let's hope they don't issue anymore visas to dead terrorists. If that debacle doesn't continue to personify the Bush administration, I don't know what does (unless it's selling terror futures or removing air marshals from flights after supposed threats of hijacking).
