I am fortunate enough to be able to claim that I live in the Vancouver area of Canada, and Sand Diego CA. IMO the two nicest cities in two of the best countries to live in. Due to this I cross the border often. Several times a year. I have to ask myself if you do often, or at all, if you claim it is wide open.... I assure you it isn't.

You are probably one of those people who says Canada let the terrorists in... funny part in that is.. Canada Customs does not screen the people entering the US... US Customs agencies do... how did Canada let them in??

I live in Phoenix, Arizona. It is estimated that over 1/3 of the hispanic population is here illegally. They cross our borders by the thousands daily and if they are caught they get deported only to turn around and come right back its that easy! Just about everything is written in Spanish and English now despite the voters voting English only many times. The buisnesses and government ignore it. You hear as much Spanish as English in the grocery and a great majority of them do not speak a lick of English.

Its no longer assimilation. Our Schools teach in Spanish so we dont inconveniance them into learning English.

The U.S. calls it immigration, Any other sane nation would call it Invasion!

I think he is refering to illegals from Mexico...not terrorist that might or might not have filtered into the US via Canada

lol, well my place in San Diego is not far from TJ.. that border is not any easier to cross (legally). It is just that you don't have millions of Canadians trying to sneak in from the North.. the Southern border really is more "defended" between checkpoints. It is like water leaking through a dam, throw thousands or millions of Mexicans at the border looking for a way through and and they will find the cracks!

I think it is OK that Subman1 voted democrat but I don't like the idea of him wanting to marry his horse.

That is weird

Just as a point of history, this statement is not accurate.

Of the 19 hijackers:

Mohamed Atta al Sayed was Egyptian.

Marwan al-Shehhi and Fayez Banihammad were from the United Arab Emirates

Ziad Jarrah was from Lebanon.

The other 15 were from Saudi Arabia.

However, you are quite correct in that none of them were Iraqi

Good for you for voting Democrat, Subman!

I would have picked you for Republican for sure.
PS Enjoy your honeymoon at the stables.

Just when you think you know someone......

I think I need some smelling salts.

Oh, and the former republican President and, especially, the GOP's most recent gem of a pick for VP have said some pretty stupid things too. So, my point, Steamwake, is....whats your friggin point?

Cherry picker.

"The whole history of the country has been a history of melodramatic pursuits of horrendous monsters, most of them imaginary: the red-coats, the Hessians, the monocrats, again the red-coats, the Bank, the Catholics, Simon Legree, the Slave Power, Jeff Davis, Mormonism, Wall Street, the rum demon, John Bull, the hell hounds of plutocracy, the trusts, General Weyler, Pancho Villa, German spies, hyphenates, the Kaiser, Bolshevism... A complete chronicle of the Republic could be written in terms of it without omitting a single important episode... plain people, under democracy, never vote FOR anything, but always AGAINST something."

A thoroughly amusing read, BTW. Each side really does believe the the other will bring the apocalypse.
