I said electable. Anyone who says we ought to "bomb Mecca" doesn't have a hope in hell. And if you really think he does, I have no respect for your political analysis skills. If you are truly "old military," you know that it is folly to act on what you "wish" would happen instead of cold reality, and cold reality is that NO ONE is going to "bomb Mecca."

As for the Muslims, all I can tell you is that the Muslims I see at my University are pretty peaceful. But your analysis is flawed, because outsiders coming in, esp. from Arab countries (I know, because I hear the stories) are scrutinized with a fine tooth comb for any whiff of terrorist connections. INS is far from perfect, but I am MORE concerned with un-accounted Muslims coming across from Me-hee-co than with the known Muslims coming from friendly states like UAE or Turkey.

Too be perfectly honest, as the guy who admits these outsiders from Arab countries, our fine tooth comb is missing many teeth.

They usually are, up untill the point where they blow something up.
