Okay, I get it. The Liberals are for fixing the ILLEGALS problem this year. Only us righties see a possibility that an Iranian book Celebrating Suicide Bombers MIGHT mean that someone, who knows who, might just be reading for pleasure to while away the time while waiting to sneak across our borders. Heck there is no danger, no problem. Could be from any country. Who could see any problem in that?
Got it!!!
Heck it could be a Mexican student reading it for a test in social studies! Harmless!!!
I've been for fixing the ILLEGALS problem all along... and have said so for years. (Did you get the part where I used the word ILLEGALS?
The book could just as easily have been planted by one of the anti-ILLEGALS vigilante border patrols to stir up the Righties. Leaping to the conclusion that it was dropped by a wayward Iranian is what I would expect from someone who posts crap from the Rightie-emails on a regular basis without checking on Snopes to see if it's garbage and ends up looking like a fool.
I would love for the book to be released to the public to be reviewed. I can believe it was planted by anti-illegal immigration types, but if it actually has hand written Farsi like I heard it does, that theory loses water.

OK so lets see, I am not a liberal, I am a Proud Repub. That book could be a plant or it could be the property of some home grown terrorists that surface all the time or it could belong to some anti illegals or some group of folks that want to stir the pot to get folks riled up. We really don't know. Of course they could fingerprint check it to see if there is anything. Until the investigation is over it is all speculation. Personnally I think all the illegals need to go. COMMON SENSE though says it will not happen. So they will keep up the crap as is all over the news. Imagine that. Just for your knowledge, since you seem to be blinded by political bias, this is not a liberal, righty, or even your tea party thing. This problem is an American problem.
The news here made some sense....the book itself is in English, making it unlikely it belongs to some Iranian crossing the border.....more likely an American jihadist wannabe, maybe a student....someone who wanted to ditch the book before their friends? parents? saw it. Lots of possibilities, no answers yet. But it sure is fun to speculate.
If we don't do more to close the border, we will eventually wake up to many more terrorist attacks from people who easily crossed that border. Then, just like 9/11, we will wake up from our complacency and finally do more (but not enough imo) to keep these assholes out.
It doesn't matter if the book was planted or not, we do have borders that can easily be crossed by any piece of garbage that wants to kill us, sell drugs, commit crimes, or just use our resources at taxpayer expense.
Well, we KNOW the fence was a waste of BILLIONS. You build a 10-foot fence, they build an 11-foot ladder. So, short of stationing troops along the border at 100-ft intervals, (which would ALSO cost Billions), what's your solution? I'm serious...What would YOU offer as a suggestion to "close the border"? (And tell us how you would pay for it, since you're "taxed enough already" and want to keep cutting things...?)
Instead of just bitching about it, what would you suggest?
