They're certainly the words that describe what no rational person wants to see happen. But I fear they are quite possibly the words that describe what will happen if some lunatic scheme like this is put into action. There are people in this country that will quite likely be put right over the edge by this, should it really make the transition from political BS to reality. I hope there aren't any such people anywhere near where I live, but frankly, I suspect the distribution is fairly wide.

Good post. I'm scratching my head over this as well, and wondering why some people can't see how much resentment this could foment in this country. Can you imagine how ugly this could get?

It's never going to happen.

Can you imagine how ugly this could get?

Yes.

What scares me -- almost as much as the fact that conservatives are advocating it -- is that so damn few others can imagine how ugly it could get.
