No, it’s laughable that you all think Ron Paul has all the answers.
Detail your idea for foolproof sealing the borders, that will keep and prevent stealth terrorists from coming in on aircraft, or missles or explosive laden aircraft from flying in from outside the country.
Don’t forget in that, no more Patriot Act as it might interfere on their liberty.
I agree with Cpl Ferris. One of my Viet Nam buddies recently lost a leg to one, but explain how the president seals the border with Congress holding the purse strings.
Then, explain why Ron Paul has also been unsuccessful in doing the same.
But, let meask, since you ridicule, “Unless, you enjoy seeing American school children dodging IED’s in the way to school” with “The 2009 equivalent of “Unless, you enjoy seeing mushroom clouds over American cities,” I assume you think there is no Jihadist threat, like morons told us back in the 50’s there was no nuclear threat either.
I’ll even bet many of you even maintained there was no threat of highjacked aircraft being flown into occupied buildings on September 10, 2001 didn’t you?
The Government can not prevent anything from happening, since prevention requires a one-hundred percent guarantee that is impossible for Government to provide.
As for my "idea," it is this: enforce the law. If the Federals are unwilling to enforce valid U.S. law, then they should step aside and let the States and the People do so, or repeal the law outright.

Last I checked, the Border Patrol, as well as Customs and Immigration, and the Coast Guard are all executive agencies under the direction of the President of the United States, in accordance with the laws as passed by Congress.
But if you want to shift culpability for the failure to enforce immigration law to the Republicans who controlled Congress from 2000 to 2006, by all means, go for it.

You assume too much.

There would have been no such threat if United States citizens' inalienable rights to bear arms had not been infringed upon by their very own Government.
