Rep. Sue Myrick (R-N.C.)said at a press conference today:


"Our main concern is, who's in our state? I mean this is a critical issue today. I mean they just arrested down on the border, what a couple of weeks ago, three al Qaeda members who came across from Mexico into the United States. I mean that's a given fact. They were holding them in the jail down there."


Now that is a blockbuster story, or a complete urban myth. The Congresswoman's statement is on an audio file, available at Radioblogger.com (as is a transcript of my interview with The Nation's David Corn, and a caller who sided with him.)
