Running a background check for everyone entering the country would require omnipotence and possibly a program like SETI@Home... The point is we don't have the man power or technology to know how many people are coming into this country by hopping the border or hiding the back of a truck. Maybe we should build a huge metal dome that cover the entire contiguous U.S. and some smaller ones from Alaska, Hawaii, and our territories.

By our government's deficiency in checking people coming into this country, we might as well had a banner up at the airport customs and immigration facilities that said, "Welcome terrorists." I stand by my statement that we willingly let them in (i.e.-"harbored" them), without any real background checks or other scrutiny before letting them through our border. That's a fact, Jack.
When you say that I have "utter ignorance of vocabulary," you couldn't be more wrong. I write and edit stories for a magazine that you probably read religiously every month.
