How About a Moratorium on Citizenship for Pakistani Immigrants?

Since we've put a halt to any new offshore drilling in the wake of the BP disaster, how about we put a halt to any new citizenships for Pakistani immigrants in the wake of the arrest of Faisal Shahzad?

Shouldn't we do some better screening of current applicants in the meantime?

Heck, we don't even know who sponsored Faisal's citizenship.
In December 1998 he was granted an F-1 student visa. Immigration officials noted then that there was “no derogatory information” on Mr. Shahzad in any database, a law enforcement official said.

He first attended Southeastern University in Washington, DC, then transferred in 2000 to the University of Bridgeport, Conn., where he received a B.A. in computer science and engineering.

He next appears in April, 2002, when he was granted an H1-B visa for skilled workers; he stayed in the U.S. for three years on that visa and gained an M.B.A. It is not clear what company sponsored the visa, which is used to attract workers with a “specialty occupation,” such as information technology.

Then on October 20, 2008, he reported his marriage to a woman he identified as Huma Asif Mian, an American citizen. He became a naturalized as a U.S. citizen on April 17, 2009.

While law enforcement officials don’t have exhaustive details of his travels after he was naturalized, one trip in particular stands out: he left New York on June 2, 2009, on an Emirates flight to Dubai. He stayed overseas for eight months, returning on February 3, 2010, on another Emirates flight from Dubai.
While he was overseas he apparently went into foreclosure, which the sob sisters at CNN are reporting may have sent him over the edge.
CNN anchor: "It can confirmed that his house has been foreclosed in recent years. I mean, one would have to imagine that brought a lot of pressure and a lot of heartache on that family."
Question: If he was in foreclosure and had no visible means of support, how was he able to pay $1300 in cash for the SUV last week and for a one-way ticket out of the country last night?

Another question: If foreclosure drove him over the edge, why aren't we seeing millions of car bombings across the country considering the number of foreclosures in recent years?

Meanwhile, soak in some of this drivel:
