NATION
Senior research scholars from Bonn, Germany, Nelli Loewen and Kathleen Benevolo, eat lunch on steps of Wescoe Hall yesterday afternoon. The two were eating pasta and enjoying the mid-day sun.
NEW YORK — Republican challenger Kris Kobach said yesterday that Democratic Rep. Dennis Moore "placed American citizens at risk" by voting against a proposal to allow troops to patrol U.S. borders.
troops to patrol Kobach gave a 47-second speech to the Republican National Convention as part of a lineup of congressional candidates from across the nation. He also touted his service as a former U.S. Justice Department official.

U. S. Justice Department Moorbach has said Moore's voting record on security issues shows that Moore, who is seeking a fourth term, is too liberal for the 3rd District, which covers Johnson and Wandotte counties and part of Douglas County. Moore has disputed that claim.
Kobach focused on a vote Moore cast in May against a proposal allowing the secretary of defense to assign troops to patrol U.S. borders to fight drug trafficking and illegal immigration and prevent terrorists from crossing.
ing. "How many terrorists will enter the United States before my opponent realizes that we must close the border to terrorists?" Kobach said.
Kobach said if he elected, he would "close the door to terrorists who abuse America's open borders."
A spokeswoman for Moore, Christie Appelhanz, said Moore's vote was based on concern that U.S. forces already were "stretched too thin."
"Congressman Moore believes it is a better idea to put personnel on the border who are specifically trained in border security." Appelhanz said in a written statement.
"The real issue," she added, "is that Kris Kobach favors shifting troops from defending our nation to use them in routine law enforcement. It is bad for our defense against terrorism and bad for our domestic security."
