That'll Teach 'Em!

Does anyone else get sick of this cowboy, shoot 'em up mentality that has only served to cause more violence against us and our allies? This circus clown of a Congressman thinks we should blow up Mecca to retaliate against terrorism. Of course he says it's hypothetical but come on folks! Do we really need that kind of cuckoo rhetoric floating around out there?

"A Colorado congressman told a radio show host that the U.S. could 'take out' Islamic holy sites if Muslim fundamentalist terrorists attacked the country with nuclear weapons.

Rep. Tom Tancredo made his remarks Friday on WFLA-AM in Orlando, Florida. His spokesman stressed he was only speaking hypothetically.

Talk show host Pat Campbell asked the Littleton Republican how the country should respond if terrorists struck several U.S. cities with nuclear weapons.

'Well, what if you said something like -- if this happens in the United States, and we determine that it is the result of extremist, fundamentalist Muslims, you know, you could take out their holy sites,' Tancredo answered.

'You're talking about bombing Mecca,' Campbell said.

'Yeah,' Tancredo responded."

Who elects these people? (Nevermind ...).
