Border Folly

Parapundit offers a trenchant and frightening breakdown of recent news reports of Middle Easterners crossing the US-Mexico border, and observes:

One thing is for sure: We are protected more by the limits of Al Qaeda's talents and resources than we are by US government policy toward our borders.

Sad, because it's true. Question: if the US suffers a terrorist attack on US soil, committed by Islamists who crossed the southern border undetected after 9/11, should US officials, including the president, face criminal charges for negligence?
