Mitt Romney, the Republican governor of Massachusetts, has suggested law enforcement agents begin wiretapping mosques and conducting surveillance of all foreign students in the state. During a speech at the Heritage Foundation he called on the federal government to devote far more money and attention to domestic intelligence gathering. He said ’’How many individuals are coming to our state and going to those institutions who have come from terrorist-sponsored states? Do we know where they are? Are we tracking them?” Romney is considered to be a likely Republican candidate for president in 2008.
