Fighting al Qaida In Queens---And King

From CBS:

"...Congressman King was one of several senior lawmakers in Washington D.C. in a classified briefing with the FBI on Monday night, following an early morning raid on four apartment homes in Flushing.

"...A federal search warrant mentioning bomb-making components such as powder, gel, TNT, and nitroglycerin were among the items to be seized.

"In all, authorities said Monday night there were no arrests, and that they have not detected a specific plot or target."

Or any explosives. Who knows what got the FBI excited? But friends of liberty will be gratified to know of our congressman's support for such actions:

"'I would characterize this raid as preventative. There was no imminent action that they attempted to stop,' King said."

Preventative raids? No arrests? No specific plots or imminent actions?

Constitutional concerns, anyone? Maybe, even, from a president who called the inconsequential Cambridge police actions on a middle class front porch, "stupid?"

Thanks to D for this one.
