Hmmm, Molly Meldrum's too dangerous to gain entry into America. Now now, don't jump to the conclusion that this confirms everything you were already thinking about the effectiveness [other than political] of America's new security measures. Let's try to look at this from the perspective of the Department of Homeland Security. They are trained to identify potential threats, so, let's see what an unfamiliar eye might make of our Molly. Firstly, you never know what could be under that hat of his. WOMDs cannot be ruled out. [Ergh! And I promised myself that I would get through life without making a Molly-hat joke. Damn sellout! Even worse, I managed to combine it with a lame WOMD one, which I also made promises about. I am obscene!] And, it's true, Molly has in the past used his visits to US shores to fraternise with local dissidents; we cannot reasonably ignore the fact that he was in attendance at the wedding of Sean Penn and Madonna. Additionally, he has held questionable, anti-social, perhaps even dangerous, ideological positions. For example, he declared with pride that Peter Andre deserved to go far. Fair cop, Molly. Where there's smoke there's fire.
