Now that's a thought. Think of the possibilities...

Living in Los Angeles, this also gives me the queebies!!...I really wish that Tom Ridge would take a tall look at closing the borders at least temporarily!! Asking us to be "AWARE" of terriorists around us, is like saying to our children, " there is a prowler on the loose. Let us be careful".....and then going on to bed with open windows and doors!!

Every incoming person ought to be stopped and ordered to eat a small sausage or bacon and if they say no haul them in for further questioning!

I'm afraid to ask this, but just what strategy would that be? And please when you answer take off your tinfoil hat. Cause it sounds from your post like you're travelling down that road.

Why go through in Tijuana? All they have to do is walk acroos the unguarded border in the Arizona desert.

Worse yet, they can follow the drug smuggling trails up through Big Bend.

If they're not Caldean Christians, does this mean that we can start the bombing pretty much whenever we want to now?

Absolutely. Even if they are Caldean Christian because if they are, it means that they've been persecuted and raped by Saddam, meaning that now they have low self esteem - a perfectly good reason to bomb 'the Bejesus' off Saddam.

Christians - Bejesus ------ got it?

Okay, so they might be Chaldean Catholics but they can got to any other country tonight...why did they pick this one right now? I don't trust them. I don't wish them any harm but I can't trust them right now...let them stay south of the border for the duration.
