Here's a serious question...

Do you really think any level of security at the borders could keep out a determined terrorist?

You know, there are roads joining Canada and the United States that have no security at all. It's just like driving from one city to the next in the US. I'm sure a mapquest search could help Abdul find the best route.

The Oklahoma City bombing proved you don't even need to bring your weapons with you. Just make one once you get here.

It is abjectly absurd to think that you can use "security" to prevent terrorist attacks. It might help weed some out, but really the only way you will prevent the attacks is if you remove the reason why people want to attack.

That's the part of the solution that conservatives ignore.

So I take it you've bought a Qu'ran and are a new member of your local mosque?

Hah.. no.. you know I dispise all religions as nothing but pure evil.. I'd never join one..

I keep forgetting you're "fighting" the holy war.. and think there is absolutely no way to stop the entire Muslim religion from wanting to destroy us..

and of course by "fighting" I mean the same way that the 101st fighting keyboardists fight the Iraq war.. from mom's basement with a bag of cheetoes and diet Mountain Dew..

blah..blah...blah....

And I think you could join Islam, it's a cutl more than a religion.

How many religions do you know that will kill you if you either don't join or want to leave it?

All religions are cults by definition.. and I probably despise radical Islam as much as you do .. but I don't buy the argument that you solve the problem by killing all of them and changing their governments. That policy has, apparently, failed in Afghanistan, right?

I'm sure you probably think genocide is the solution.. I'd wager pretty much anything on that one. You just don't have the balls to say it. You post story after story about how nutty and evil they are, yet you never - ever - offer up your solution.

That can only mean one thing..
