And yet after San Bernadino the first thing we heard was how we need more gun control...

That was the second thing, the first thing we heard was Trump tell us no more Muslims in the country.

We were skiing in Vermont yesterday. I didn't see anyone who looked like he could be a member of ISIS there. I wonder if they stay away from the slopes and instead burrow around the general stores of the small towns or hang with the cows.

Limiting immigration isn't exactly an infringements on the rights of citizens. It was still a pretty dick thing to suggest, though.

Who handed the GOP its butt in 2008 and 2012? Any ideas on that? :roll:

Lots of losers in the GOP don't like Obama, But none of them could beat him.




It's easy to be a Monday morning quarterback. (Anyone can do that.) But getting out there on the field and playing the game is another story.

If Obama's so bad, why couldn't the GOP beat him? Fill us in.

Guess who's responsible for Trump's popularity? Your boy Obama.
You can thank Obama when Trump wins the White House.

The only way that Trump will see the inside of the White House is as a guest.

Wait and see.

:lol:

I'm laughing at you.

Gun control AND a back door for the government to encryption programs. IMO, the latter may have been the more important agenda.
 
Re: ISIS present in All 50 states, FBI director says

I'm not sure what I'm more shocked about. The idea that a terrorist organization might be operating throughout the U.S. or that there is debate whether or not to do anything about it.
America really is showing its lower education level compared to the rest of the world.
And we get what we deserve because of it.

Maybe the President can be bothered to use the word "terrorist" now at least without risking his "I won that war" reputation.
Agenda politics will agenda.

Feeeaaaarrr! FFFEEEEEAAAAAAARRRRRR!!!!

They're in every state! Watch out! There might be one just around that corner! See all the sirens? Oh, wait, it's just another husband who shot his wife and kids, no big deal, no problem as long as it's just us Real Americans killing thousands of us, and not THEM killing tens of us!

And if "there's terrorists in every state" is your way of saying the war against terrorism isn't won, heck, by that standard, the war against Nazism still isn't won. Neither is the Cold War. For that matter, there's still people who keep slaves - yes, there are - so by your standard, the war against slavery ain't done yet. The key is, you can't win a war against an idea, against a freaking word. No matter how stupid or evil an idea is, there's ALWAYS going to be some idiots who follow that idea...and the more attention is given to these idiots, the more like-minded idiots will be drawn to them - more than anything, they need publicity...and sympathy. All the Real-American He-Man We-Bomb-ISIS-all-day-all-the-time machismo will never - repeat, NEVER - "get rid" of terrorism or any other kind of 'ism'.

So get over yourself, and your side's misguided sense of leadership-by-testosterone.

We're trying to do something about it. But we must stop electing war Hawks that create the enemies in the first place. We have ample NIE and other studies documenting that our FP in the ME is breeding these guys and that they began flowing in in large numbers following the invasion and occupation of Iraq. ;)

It is true that leftists tend to be testosterone free but sometimes genuine leadership is called for, rather than just divvying up more food stamps.

I could also include how many Democrats and independents are grossed out by Hillary. Especially the fact that she is supposed to represent the "little guy", yet she behaves like the greediest Republicans, taking money from big banks every opportunity she gets.

You better hope Obama finds some way to grant amnesty to the tens of millions of illegal immigrants here, so that they can vote D. Otherwise you guys are going to lose the White House.

We are in the 2nd Cold War...and neonzis are not part of the Nazi movement (i.e. the threat of being killed by a neonazi is far less than being killed by a terrorist).
If you don't believe terrorists exist that really isn't my problem with your grip on reality.
If your approach to terrorism is to sit on your hands and propose we just smile at those who very realistically want to kill us then that is also your business and your naiveté is your freedom...for now.
I am a thinker a lot more than a fighter (I know anyone who disagrees with you about anything must be a machismo bully, etc. etc.) but even my Buddhist instinct tells me that you don't deal with the kinds of people that make up these terrorists organization with flowers and puppies like "your side" wants to (whatever that is supposed to mean).

Where in this report did anyone scream that we must elect warhawk officials? Who would even be a warhawk candidate this election?
I'm not sure what your point is for the follow up. Should we do nothing when we are attacked on U.S. soil? Should we cater to and "respect" ISIS for fear of creating more of them? What is your answer here?

The FBI/CIA organizations may (don't really know) want more money and it is possible that they misappropriate funds like I suspect every single branch of our Government does without exception. But these are still the people that every President, including the current one relies on for this kind of information. Has our leadership begun to second guess these guys? Is there another organization to assess how real the threat is?

Tossing about "those evil fear mongering agencies" without offering a better solution is...well, American really.

Come back and tell us all about that in January after Hillary Clinton moves into the White House.

You don't think voter remorse is going to play a vital role?
Nearly all the people I know who voted for Obama have expressed voter remorse, and some have told me they'll consider voting for Trump if Hillary beats Bernie, just to protest the corrupt status quo candidate.

You think it's conservatives who are on food stamps? If so the liberals should rebel and demand this practice be stopped.
