Plan B is for a different person each day to hold his/her breath until they almost turn blue.

That looks great.

If I was around their hunger strike, I would get in front of them with that and start eating.

Can this country produce any more idiots than it has?

One group will not eat and then another group, LOL. It’s a diet not a hunger strike and what on earth possesses these fools to even have thought of it?

it would be a not-so-fast, which is the reaction of our side to the nomination of Lynch in the first place...

The Irish know how to sacrifice for their beliefs. Whether you agree with them or not it’s clear they have sacrificed.

“Every Other Day Hunger Strike Diet”

Great idea, the “Biggest Loser” show could use it as their guide and their contestants would be a lot happier. ;-)

Why not print this questionaire up encircle your answers and send it to your US Senator

Dear Senator
INS...Amnesty.. Forget about Ebola
We don’t allow cattle to enter without a background health and ancestry check which we also reqiure of legal immigrants who wait years and still go thru health and record checks. We also require that any legal immingrant demonstrate prior to entry that they offer a contribution to our society and not dependency upon it .

Yet we’re letting children and gang bangers in without doing any of this which has resulted in dispersing virulent new diseases (measles) and drug use which has resulted in unreported cases in schools where these illegal kids were placed.. Plus shoved a severe financial strain on local governments where they are placed .

Should any candidate for Attorney General supporting these practices be denied confirmation ?(Yes) (No) . Should the senate abandon the 60 vote majority for the “nuclear option” used by Reid when majority leader of the senate to any such candidate to be Attorney General supporting the above by applying the simple majority Reid rule. But citing the Hanen court injunction ruling that would restrict the use of the Reid rule only when such a ruling by a Judge were made ? (Yes) (No)

Should those given this bypassed favored treatment who miss their INS hearing be deported fortwith ? (Y) (N).. ? Denied re-entry (Y)(N) ? Snould that also apply to any illegal convicted of a felony (Y)(N)

In “countries where an American citizen decides to be a “legal” emigree never mind being a seasonal visitor still are denied voting privledges. Own land in their own name. Face steep fines before getting kicked out let alone denied income and energy subsistance including food stamps, or bring in family members .

I (do) (don’t) believe we should allow such full citizenship privledges mentioned above which are denied by the country of national origin of the above, to a legal American immigrant , deny such full citizen privledges to any (emigree) (seasonal vistor) (illegal) if their country does not allow those same privledges to any citizen of the United States, .
While such a position will be condemed as defacto deportation particularly by the political establishment .Would you continue to support a Senator who refuses to support such restrictions ? (Y) (N) Does that also include erecting border barriers such as fencing designed to discourage surrepticious or uncontolled entry ? (Yes) (No)

Should any American citizen which goes overseas to join a foreign entity fighting against the United States (such as ISIS) Be denied re-entry (Y)(N) and their citizenship revoked? (Y) (N) Should that person be charged with treason (Y)(N)

Very Truly Yours For Restoring the value of American citizenship and Conservative Government

> Someone doesn’t understand how a hunger strike works. You don’t get any attention until you reach the point of approaching death and that’s not going to happen here.

It would take months for that to happen with this crowd...

Sort of like the rubber band diet. One doesn’t have to have surgery to stop the food from digesting just put bands around the packages of chips , cookies and other snacks to keep the food from getting out!

The only person I’ve ever heard who went on a hunger strike and had any credibility was Gandhi. With anyone else, it’s just a temper tantrum writ large.

So if all the Democrats go on a hunger strike, we are only 60-90 days from a solution.

They’ll fast on water and juices but come nighttime they’ll chow down like ravenous Muzzies during Ramadan. Juices during the day. Pork chops with gravy mashed potatoes at night

I guess they think just because it worked for a lawyer in India, it’ll work for them.
