I noted that you ignored the question in my post which pointed to the original point that was being made (from which you jumped to a tangential (albeit important in its own right) point). As I pointed out, it is not necessary to close the border to do other things to fight terrorism. I think it would help protect us to close our borders more effectively.
Note that if we close our borders and have Ron Paul as a President, we've only solved the problem of the border and haven't done a thing about the global radical Islamic problem. So, you can say, "look at this hand" all you want. I still see the bunny.
I didn't say close the borders. I was talking about border security Does our Federal government take it seriously when the Federal Government allows, encourages, and even aids and abets this illegal, violent invasion of our borders during war time? Even the Presidents spokes person basically compared millions entering this country from who knows where during wartime, to a mere traffic ticket or violation.
I was responding the posters specific statement about the candidate not taking the WOT seriously.
When we have millions crossing our borders illegally, routinely, with trucks entering by the thousands, loaded with drugs, human cargo and who knows what else, are you suggesting our own government is taking the WOT seriously?
it is not necessary to close the border to do other things to fight terrorism.
Let me ask you a simple, direct question. Is real border security critical and vitally important for the homeland during a global war on terror?
