2. Halt the spread of nuclear weapons and spend money

more effectively on homeland security. Two things that both liberals and conservatives can agree are good ideas, and both things that this administration has royally messed up. My plans would be based on the following two books: Nuclear Terrorism by Graham Allison, and America the Vulnerable by Stephen Flynn.

4. They did it in Germany... No more Nazi Party.

Perhaps we need to do it too, then hand them all over to an international war crimes tribunal. :)

5. I'm still for saturating the Arab-Muslim world

with various American products such as crystal meth, Jack Daniels, Jenna Jameson DVDs, Hustler magazine, weed, Air Jordans, Sean John tracksuits, Budweiser in 24-oz cans, ecstasy, Jimmy Dean frozen pork sausage, Oscar Mayer bacon, Kid Rock cds, etc.

6. How can you stop a tactic? Its like stopping "medium." No Sense.

How can America make itself a less of a target for those who would use terrorist tactics against us? Not going to happen. Some policy or other of ours is going to piss off somebody enough to take a shot at us, and, ironically, the more we use terrorist-quashing tactics, the more we give certain people incentive to use terrorism to hurt us.

By the way, I find the whole concept of your poll to be suspicious. Cheers.
