Well, some can, actually. There are even machines designed almost specifically for this kind of thing, though I'm not sure if you could deploy them cost effectively. The Juniper folks laughed at me for being so pessimistic to even question their ability to do such filtering at wire speed (though I guess I'll see in real life real soon :-). Of course connecting a Juniper at the edge is a rare thing, and even the one I'll get to play with isn't going to stay there long....
Now that's a very broad statment that's just not true. There are reasons that packets with a source address not assigned to an ISP may come across the link and be valid, look at DirectPC.
