I personally believe that US Americans are unable to do so because some people out there in our nation don't have maps and I believe that our education like such as in South Africa and Iraq and everywhere like such as and I believe that they should our education over here in the US should help the US or should help South Africa and should help Iraq and the Asian countries so we will be able to build up our future for us.

"it�s about someone coming with a shoulder-fired missile".

Uh-huh. The paranoid style lives on. But really, who can possibly tell the difference between a Paki and a Mexican?

Didn't Borat do a bit, cut from the movie, where he wrapped a shirt around his head like a turban and toted a car muffler on his shoulder across the Mexican border just to see if the Minutemen would shoot at him?

If I was Obama or Clinton or Edwards, I'd be salivating at the thought of running against this guy.

It seems as if a simple blanket ban on allowing people to cross the border if they happen to be carrying shoulder-fired missiles would accomplish the same goal nicely.

@3 ooooh- what HE said... and, that said, the Pakis aren't gonna be coming here at ALL- because they've got a better deal in their new home, Canada, now that the dollars there are worth more than ours. Hell, they might come to shop-as the $$ weakens- but why would they want to stay? Unless, of course, the upward wage/value spiral encourages the BritCanucks to quit growing pot & get real jobs, driving trucks & running snowblowers, etc that push the Pakis across the border... ^..^

@5 That's tough... but you CAN tell a Yakama from a Mexican- because the Mexican has a JOB- because the Yakamas finally got tired of working for the land usurpers, and traditional slavery is harder & harder to hide... and because it's better to hire someone who you don't understand that'll never consider taking you to court... and... like that. ^..^

These statements demonstrate why it is critical to encourage presidential candidates to comment on world events that have nothing whatsoever to do with their candidacy. I'll gladly put up with Clinton and Obama jabbing at each other pointlessly if it means priceless quotes like this.

Oh please, we all know what's gonna happen after the 2008 "elections."

1) 2008: Reverend Preznit Huckabee �elected.�

2) 2009: US Constitution abolished, replaced with Old Testament because God wants to protect our freedoms.

3) 2010: US re-named the Republic of Gilead. Jews, Blacks encouraged to move to the hip and happening �colonies.� Ann Coulter renames self Serena Joy.

4) 2011: You lucky, lucky het guys prepare for your Econowives; het gals prepare for �freedom from.� Political and religious dissidents, abortionists, homosexuals politely informed they will be transitioning to the afterlife.

@11: perfectly said. i can see it all happening, can't you? i'll swing from the "gender traitors" wall for sure. that book should be called prophesy, not fiction.

I should add:

2) Democrats heatedly object to abolishing US Constitution, promise to hold hearings then later admit they don't have the votes to stop it. Joe Biden promises reforms during a break from his new job as a male prostitute in the Larry Craig wing of Jezebels.

I really really really hope he gets the nomination. Although, I felt that way about Bush too.

Yeah, I hear ya Papayas. He actually might be stupid enough for the American electorate. They sure don't look for intelligence or insight in their preznits.

Of course the Pakistanis could dig a really, really deep hole and end up somewhere in Iowa. And they'll be carrying their shoulder fired missiles. Beware the peril of the invading hordes!!!

@6 - If you outlaw shoulder-fired missiles, only the outlaws will have shoulder-fired missiles.

Voters, disappointed with a president of only moderately low mental capacity, are demanding leaders with retardation of even greater depth and breadth.
