Democratic Gov. Eliot Spitzer blasted Republicans for "politics of fear and selfishness" in opposing his plans to allow illegal immigrants to get New York driver's licenses and to provide health insurance to all children. Spitzer was responding to Republican Assembly leader James Tedisco, who said Spitzer's license plan in particular will be welcomed by Osama bin Laden. Some Senate Republicans also said the plan will lead to another Sept. 11, 2001, attack. Spitzer would allow undocumented immigrants to get driver's licenses, which he says will improve public security by creating records for more immigrants. He would also add what he calls anti-fraud measures to the process.
