See what has happened to England when too many Muslims immigrate into a country, they are just like invading ants, they overwhelm and draw you into their colonies.

You either join, or die.

As Obama does unpopular things watch the leftist wacko websites turn to more non-stories.

Right now while Drudge has this hot topic story as his headline what does Huffpo have as their major story, with over 1000 comments? MEN’S UNDERWEAR!

The story about Obama pushing amnesty? That gets 188 comments on Huffpo.

Ridiculous, transparent leftists!

They cannot escape their illusions of fantasy, these are the people afraid to jump into a lifeboat, afraid of odds and unable to accept reality.

Pain is life, the road to freedom isn’t a superhighway with cruise control.

You’re right. The MSM will do the same.

when ever I hear the word "risk" when it comes to Bambi, I think to myself.....billions of tax payer money disappeared already....creating government jobs and depending on the self propelled government backed crisis to get rich and become indecently wealthy with a chance of not being........... reelected? Thats his "risk"? The American people are at risk and the selfgrandizing,money hungry,corrupt politico's are rolling the dice.........with no RISK.

The “risk” they speak if is a loss in popularity. It has nothing to do with money or national sovereignty or security. It’s all about the “love meter”.

with no RISK.

Can’t argue with that. Our money is on the table, and it isn’t coming back anytime soon.

Glad to hear this dumb ass liberal socialist obamma lamma is going to put his foot in the amnesty sham.

We need to have the garbage congress critters take a stand one way or the other on this issue.
Time to quit hiding behind b.s.

Then we need to vote out every p.o.s. that supports giving away our lifestyles.
I am tired of paying for illegals and their welfare.
I’m also tired of politicians pandering to illegals for votes.
And as for the supremes on those courts? Stone them.

Make mine cherry pie. LOL

Lets see, brakes? Hmmm, pilot chute that jerks out two canopies leading to a survivable landing for Thelma and Louise, or train wreck. I don’t like the choices. First off, anyone that thinks spending when you are broke, and increasing debt when you are already up to your ears in debt, is giving too much credibility to insanity.

The “plan”, is precisely the stupidity that Fannie and Freddie was based on, which resulted in the world wide financial meltdown, and the coronation of Barney Frank and Christopher Dodd as the saviors of the economy they assisted in destroying. I tend to believe the only truth Obama is telling. “It will get worse before it gets better”.

With 13.5 million unemployed Americans this may not sit very well with a majority of Americans.

BO has identified 3 “problems”, yet his proposed “solutions” will only serve to make energy more expensive and scarce, healthcare more expensive and scarce, and education more expensive and ineffective.

That isn't the only anti-American ju-jitsu he is implementing.

Candidate Zero ran claiming our military was "stretched too thin, with obsolete equipment" His plans? His Defense budget for the future will have....drum roll...no air superiority for the U.S....no navy ships....no anti missile defense....and a drastic reduction in our residual nuclear deterrent...unilaterally.

And then don't forget his "fix" for the capitalist system...is federal takeovers...and Nine Trillion Dollars of Deficit Spent Debt by the end of the decade....
