Those ISIS fighters disguised as 10 year old Honduran boys are the trickiest ones to stop. Genius.

I hear this line āsecure the borderā over and over again from the right. Itās convenient that they rely on the three words and never explain exactly what they mean. In their āsecure the borderā world, what would they actually do differently, how much would it cost, would they support shooting people on sight if they are seen crossing the border?
Come on Scotty, show us that you are different from all of the others āsecure the borderā loudmouths, and tell us what you mean. I suspect the more reasonable GOP (are there any left?) would say they would do pretty much what Obama has been doing for years. Maybe thatās why they donāt say more than three words.

We gotta keep terrorists infected with Ebola from sneaking across the Mexican border and stealing American jobs!

Securing the Syria/Iraq border is a tall order. Itās just open desert for most of its length.
Huh? He meant what?
Ah, man, thatās just dumb!

So heās an isolationist like Rand Paul.
Voters in the GOPTP donāt seem to function above the brainstem, by believing all of the crap that flows from the mouths of these candidates.
I fear our society is doomed if we keep letting the Koch brothers choose our politicians.

East Germany followed such a policy for several decades, though to keep people in, not out. Yet, people crossed even that āsecureā border in significant numbers. There is no 100% secure border, even where the parties on one or both sides are police states. Even the Chinese-North Korean border isnāt 100% secure.

I think itās a typo. It means lock your tenants in their apartments.
Iād ask how people this obtuse possibility hope to get elected, but then I recall thereās a whole party of them.
One thing his candidacy has shown is that voters, at least on the right, are fine with a carpetbagger who spouts ideological correctness.
Brown seems to have misunderstood Lindsay Graham to be saying, āFight them here so we donāt have to fight them over there.ā Which would make some sort of sense if they were here.

āthere is no credible intelligence to suggest that there is an active plot by [ISIS] to attempt to cross the southern border.ā
This is the part where the GOP/Teatroll of your choice rebuts with āyeah, thatās because itās so utterly incredible that weāve left the border completely open!!!111!!!one!!!leleventy!!!ā
Scott Brown is such an idiot and mentally challanged persos. So does Brown know something like that clown sheriff in Texas stating ISIS members are passing through the border in Texas or these children are ISIS members and a threat. Brown is disgusting and only those with hate and dimninshed capacity would but vote for Brown a true carpetbagger.

Itās not like the GOP could offer voters something desirable to gain their support.
Cool. I want to beat ISIL by investing in renewable energy, education, healthcare, and infrastructure, and also through campaign finance reform and non-partisan redistricting.
Not sure how exactly this would help ābeatā ISIL, but I still want it to happen regardless.

This isnāt plain-old stupidity. In addition to pandering, Brown gets to hedge on ALL future acts of terror in the US. If it ever happens (even years down the road) he can say āsee, I told youā, no matter if southern border is involved or not.
Weāve seen this recently from both Romney and Palin. Of all the wacky things Palin has said, she was ā oh, so smug ā when Putin moved on Crimea. Weāre supposed to forget that Russia was just one of hundreds of things she yacked incoherently about so many years ago.
