Wow Kerry took the Florida primary!

"Violence is the last refuge of the incompetent." Yeah, it's a quote from SF, but it's still a good point.

You and I can think of situations where that does not apply. I would say that violence becomes the option, when rationality and reason fail.

So, "Fortress America"? A big wall, mine fields, barbed wire, guard dogs, and thousands of armed patrols? Quite a nice message to send to our allies, neighbors, and trading partners in Mexico and Canada.

Don't be an ass. You praise the work of HS, I show you that it's all spin and lies and you accuse me of asking for Fortress America? Again, are you trying to look stupid?

Since all you supply is rancor, I can only guess at how you might try to stop the waves of illegal aliens that you decry as a symptom of our poor security. You want me to be blunt? Ok, Pete, how would you stop illegal aliens from crossing our borders? Did I praise the the work of HS? No, I said it was worth having an organization dedicated to it, rather than a thousand each with a different mandate, each with a different source of knowledge, and without any clear leadership. It's not a bad idea to have someone coordinating the myriad of agencies involved with the common defense of our borders. Back when life was simple we used to call that the Armed Forces and the Department of Defense. But, the world and our government is a little more complicated now, and they seem to be busy fighting elsewhere.

Department of Homeland Security <-- Here is the link -- Where is the spin and the lies?

So, continue to regurgitate the administration's propaganda. Be one of the last to see the truth.

Bah. I'm no apologist for this administration. I'm just unwilling to focus only on the negative. This administration has its short comings, and I'm willing to discuss them and I have. Our President may not be the leader that you, or I, or many may want -- we shall see in November -- but, the government is made up of much more than him. What I most see from you is insults, criticism, and rancor -- rather than anything substantitive which we might discuss. Anyone who disagrees with you is an idiot, and all I can say is it must be pretty lonely at the top of your mountain.
