I'm going to take a stab and guess he's a Republican...

Anyways so some by his reasoning some fundamentalists commit an act of nuclear terrorism - and as a revenge attack (hey if he thinks like a terrorist, he should use the lingo) he bombs Islamic holy sites? Hmmm... yeah that'll work; that'll show them all... no chance that the rest of the world's Muslims (and others) won't turn on the US like a piece of raw stake in the gator pool...

Why not? Nobody wants to bombd Mecca. Nobody wants to bomb anywhere. Is Mecca any more untouchable than a suburb? Well I guess bombing anything, Mecca or not, won't even matter if you don't bomb the US.

In fact it's funny that after 9/11 some joker was able to mail around anthrax, but Al Qaeda hasn't used it. Many smart people believe it's because of the fact that Al Qaeda couldn't deal with a tit-for-tat WMD war.

Plus, if previous US use of nuclear weapons is any clue, we'd go for Medina first.

How to REALLY piss off the adherents of the Muslim religion: nuke Mecca and Medina. About as good as nuking Vatican City. Or the Sikh Golden Temple in Amritsar, India.

Way to go, Congressman Tancredo: open mouth... insert foot!

Why people vote for him and Marilyn Musgrave baffles me.

Really, not everybody in Colorado is stupid! At least we didn't elect Pete Coors!
