We all know the real reason. He wanted to start up a haggis processor here.

I think you're both glossing over the smashing success the Department of Homeland Security is having keeping us safe from haggis.

The poor man really has a stake in the country. The rich man hasn't; he can go away to New Guinea in a yacht. The poor have sometimes objected to being governed badly; the rich have always objected to being governed at all

I just spotted the face of Batboy in a slice of toast too! Or maybe it was the Virgin Mary... Ack... dammit I shouldn't post while drunk! By this time tomorrow I'll be banned from the Vatican. Haggis may be a secondary concern, but really, I think it comes down to Tea Party decisions to keep area 51 yeti sightings away from public awareness, for the sake of their Mars program.
I'm both chaotic and orderly. I value my own principles, and am willing to go to extreme lengths to enforce them, often trampling on the very same principles in the process. At best, I'm heroic and principled; at worst, I'm hypocritical and disorderly.

You mean like you are glossing over the smashing success of homeland security which has republican manbabies?
Er...what?

Thanks, was about to say the same myself, with the addition that the Sun is about as valid as Fox.
Actually the original story is from the Bedfordshire on Sunday, which came out on saturday, and and which wasn't credited by The Sun
As for the validity, the Beds on Sunday is completely spotless when it comes to scare-mongering, it's won best regional paper something like twice in the past 10 years.
There is nothing in the list of reasons for banning a foreigner from entry which allows them to be banned for dissing the President.
It isn't a crime in the USA or in the UK.
There isn't a law which allows the police to visit you and take your photo.
Unless he gave them his address in his email, they would have had to get a court order to make his ISP divulge that info.
Either the story is BS or else we aren't being given all the details. For example, it is a crime in the USA to threaten the life of the President. They take it pretty seriously. Perhaps he did that and has been put on the FBI's list of suspicious persons.
I bet he threatened the Pres with haggis. That's a definite threat in my book.
EDIT: In fact, if you disagree, you're either drunk or a Scot, or even worse a drunk Scot.
Does a drunk Scot slur his broug into his emails? Where's MDG when I need him?

Didnt Amy Wine-House get banned from entering the US country for her award party? (sorry I'm not up on pop singer spelling but that's how its pronounced).. I know that Genesis P. Orridge, the singer from Throbbing Gristle was banned from the UK back in the day for saying derogatory lewd things about the Queen too. I guess it's not unheard of.
I'm still more worried about seeing the face of the Virgin Mary in my toast though.

Awesome how DoHS bans a 17yo from entering the US for calling PresbO a "prick" but the underwear bomber was on a terrorist watch list for 2 years and he got onto a plane paying cash for a one-way ticket and had no luggage at all.
Way to go Napolitano. Keep showing the US how much of an idiot you really are.
--The whole concept of government granted and government regulated 'permits' and the accompanying government mandate for government approved firearms 'training' prior to being blessed by government with the privilege to carry arms in a government approved and regulated manner, flies directly in the face of the fundamental right to keep and bear arms.
“The Constitution is not an instrument for the government to restrain the people, it is an instrument for the people to restrain the government.”
Albatross wrote:Genesis P. Orridge is English, isn't he?
Yup.
They also stopped Sebastian Horsley from entering -- language warning ahoy !
