You forget about reading them their miranda warnings as they parachute in and storm the beaches. Giving them free lawyers etc.

Of course it could. America is a particularly difficult country to invade. Many counrties depend on just making it not worth the while of the invader. For us, this would be especially easy.

Well, you are ignoring the fact that the loons have lost a lot of power. They are used to be taken with a lot of respect by the MSM they despise. And they have also shaped policy for the past decade or more.

Given that they have killed more Americans than AQ, can you imagine what they can do if they really focus on the task? Heck, we might even need those FEMA camps they fantasize about...

I suppose we could just voluntarily give up our superpower status. Not only will we have fewer enemies, but the world will love us more!

Except for those Somali pirates, of course. And maybe Iran and North Korea, who will continue to "arrest" our journalists. Russia will continue to bully their neighbors like the old Soviet days. And Cuba and Venezuela probably won't stop their anti-American rhetoric, either. And ...

Ah, who the heck am I kidding. Just another hippie has-been who's always hated the military ...
