The fact that you hate him only makes me like him more.

I have an intense dislike of Charlie Manson, as well. You groovy with Charlie now?

Just making sure since from your posts it makes seem as its only other races committing crimes, i do agree that BP should be strengthen , mines are out of the question tho.
No, whites commit a bunch of crimes. And this could be racist because it could presume something  ;), often commit some of the most effective and horrible crimes when their minds go to it. (Even though much lower in homogeneous societies you have nutjobs and crazies like Brevik.) And some of the white philosophical speculations have resulted in some of the worst atrocities ever (the infamous Austrian and Georgian.) Again, this could be considered racist (because others tend to just "go off" and "whites" plan and organize so the plan, when bad, can be really, really bad.) But when "non-whites" take on their white theories, religion, and speculations, or just plain leave the area, it can get worse (whether communism, tribalism, fascism, ethnic conflict, and other "isms" etc.)
ps: but my point is an open-border and importing more problems doesn't solve any of our problems and even IF we were only taking in the rich, educated, honest, hard-working or real needy "refugees" or immigrants it will not help those countries and further destabilize them; setting up future problems.

I remember our president, when he was running for office, said he can understand the animosity towards illegals and foreign workers because our own Americans are looking for jobs.  We should solve our own problems before we consider taking on those of others. 

We could have land mines in between two lighter weight fences which are festooned with warning signs.  This would keep animals out and act as an additional warning to illiterates.  My thought, though, is the tunnels that cartels dig.  How do we handle those?

Um, that`s because it didn`t come from the Globe. It came from the lips of one, Megyn Kelly.
Yer pulling a bait 'n switch.  But the Kelly stuff is old news too.

There are already seismic sensors in some areas (for other work and studies) but I could imagine some of them could be used to detect blasting or activity? In any event the real solution is
1) to punish the enablers (employers, churches, schools, hospitals, lawyers, ranchers, farmers, government agencies) who harbor, help, employ, transport, and defend illegals and their brood with real civil, and criminal penalties (and loss of budget, or tax-free status, for things like government agencies, churches, schools, hospitals etc who don't make direct money off the illegals.)
2) encourage changes to the corruption, politics, and situation in those near-failed, corrupt, narco-state countries. And legalizing/decriminalization of drugs, banking reform (and seizures/fines,) and withholding (or at least redirecting aide) could help in that.

True, it is old. But creepy, none-the-less.

I'm going to make a prediction for the New York primary tomorrow.  Trump wins.  :P


Not good enough?  Well, I might as well try my psychic powers.   If I'm right, I will be worshipped as a god.  If I'm wrong, then no harm done.  It' a win-win situation.  Trump would approve.  LOL. Just kidding about the God business.  I am only a mere human but maybe one with a gift.  Then again, maybe not.

What the hell by percentage.

Trump 52%
Kasich 20%
Cruz    19%
Other   9%



My face all evening tonight with Trump dominating and reading Sanders' supporters reactions to the commie getting BTFO.




Woke up this morning. Still laughing.



I often feel a sense of guilt or wonderment about how I was able to do well for myself in life. How was I able to pull my shit together despite having a wild youth and not seemingly being any different than my millenial peers. Then I read a couple of Bernie Sanders message boards and it becomes clear.

Cruz, the career pol, won his home state with just 44%.  Trump, the unPC unpol, won his with a crushing 61%.  Lying Ted is going to be Crying Ted next Wednesday.  He embodies precisely what most voters are revolting against; the slimy self-serving pol who lies in your face while smiling and reassuring you.  "Constitutionalist" my ass, he's a letter-of-the-law pharisee who would have opposed the Bill of Rights if he'd been around in 1791.

There were some compelling arguments for not having the Bill of Rights, and arguments for having, anyone who knows American history would recognize that. One of the concerns, as we are seeing now, is that the Bill of Rights would be, later, to be viewed as some top-down doctrine that the government is allowing/giving us these rights (Obama's view) versus the natural rights of man. And also that other rights not specifically enumerated in that would later be considered not "rights" and so specifying them might, actually, limit them.  Also that the Constitution itself was a "bill of rights" (Hamilton's view.)

NOthing for Ted to crow about this time....

In fact, The Donald, with his big win in NY, has just negated Cruz's last three "Wins" in Wisconsin, Colorado, & Wyoming !!  ;D

"exclusive" by the National Inquirer? Wayne Madsen, I think it was he, was reporting on this weeks ago and it has been all the fringe conspiracy sites.

The Republican Party is a liberal party in New York.  Conservatives in that state belong to the Conservative Party.  Sean Hannity is an example.  150,000 conservative voters couldn't even vote in the Republican Primary as it is a closed primary.  That is why Cruz did so poorly.

Oh and don't forget,  Hillary and Bernie creamed Trump in the popular vote.  Hillary had over 1,000,000 votes. Bernie had over 750,000 while Trump almost got 525,000.  Cruz got more votes in Wisconsin than Trump did in New York.

Cruz can't make a dent in the general population.  He's an extremist. Take away the pentecostal and evangelical zealots that are his shock troops in the states, and he'd have been a screwball rightwinger with a footnote.  My Republican doctor cousin in Dallas says he's going to be a one-termer; he won only because the 2012 primary had so many entries that, though he came in a distant second, he was able to win  with the fundamentalist vote in a low turnout runoff that most people ignored.  It's never mentioned that its the only election he's ever run in.

Tea Party got him in, not the fundamentalists. He was running against the Lt. Governor, who in Texas, is a very powerful position. But David Dewhurst was the establishment candidate that no one wanted. Dewhurst probably outspent him 100-1, but the Tea Party was behind Cruz.

The one thing I will say about Cruz, is that I can't find a campaign promise he went back on. He didn't actually get anything done though. He could never build a coalition in DC as a first term senator.

I go back to my original criticism. Senators don't make good presidential candidates and first term ones do not have the executive experience to make good presidents.

Don't try and mention Kennedy. If Nixon had worn makeup in the first televised debate, Kennedy never would have won, even with the shenanigans LBJ pulled in Texas and Daley pulled in Cook County.

He is not an extremist. His religious views don't concern me.  I haven't supported him because of his religious views.  He'll win another term in the Senate if he fails in his Presidential quest.

How could he build a coalition when most of them save for Lee and Sessions are Establishment hacks?

Coalition?? Ha!  He's ideas are off the scale; he could no more build a coalition than Ron Paul, another TX rightwing crank, could in the House.  And you don't build coalitions by pissing in the other guy's corn flakes.

There`s something to be said for a man who hangs on to his dreams so fervently.

It's both irritating and amusing that Cruz constantly portrays himself as close challenger while trailing Trump's total by 30%; soon to be 50+%.
