Ironically, he may be punished as well by mother nature, with the virtually incurable TB he has contracted. Fortunately, so far, there is not evidence of anyone else having contracted this TB strain, although there are yet more people to be tested.

Now I must ask, what would Pelosi do? This was obviously allowed by a lack of planning by the Bush administration.

They should have isolated him when he was discovered to be possibly affected with the disease. TB is an airborne disease and is easily spread by just one cough or sneeze from the affected person. The airplane is basically a "tube" where these organisms can fly about effortlessly. The man should be charged for disobeying the orders not to fly!! I also wonder about the mentality of his bride. I guess love is blind!! I find it hard to believe that this "terrorist" slipped through the cracks and was allowed to do what he wanted after being warned that he could harm many people.
