To: Cannoneer No. 4
"Soon we will import more food than we grow. We already burn more oil than we pump. For years we have bought more than we export, and we borrow far more than we lend. To justify these precarious dependencies, America assures foreign business leaders, investors and lenders that our markets remain open and immune to the distortions of xenophobia and provincialism."

Can you tell me what this has to do with national security? Importing things has nothing to do with allowing Islamic nations to control our points of entry. This is the same kind of goofy argument we had on the Meirs nomination. Name calling is always easier than confronting a problem.
