"We've got to fight them over there, so we don't have to fight them over here!111"

How are they going to get here?

They don't have planes
They don't have carriers
They don't have ships
They don't have submarines
They can't hitch a ride

But now it all makes sense, they'll just jump the US/Iraq border!

4. Walls do seem to have magical powers in the eyes of some.
East Germany couldn't build a society that kept their citizens from defecting; voila - build a wall and the problem is solved (well kind of solved - the society didn't get any better but the people couldn't get out so at least the problem could be hidden). The US government can't come to an agreement of how to deal with illegal immigration; voila - build a wall and the problem is solved (I guess the jury is still out on this one since the wall isn't finished yet, but you just wait for the miraculous improvements that will happen when that last brick is laid).

Those true believers seem to be missing the wisdom of building a wall between Pakistan and Afghanistan. That would keep those pesky terrorists on their own side of the border. I know there are a few mountains they would have to deal with, but that would just make the resulting wall that much more impressive.

When in doubt, build a wall.

2. Finally, a war this Administration can win! But, we still can't find bin Laden.
That's because, he's hiding on the Iraq-Pakistan border.
