  1. I'd say you are absolutely correct, first he got rid of the majority of our top military brass, now his own people are bailing on him, our self proclaimed emperor is up to something.
  2. Right on!! Kinda like a private Christmas!!!
  3. Glad you liked it buddy, left you a message on your profile, stop predicting Husker games unless they are wins!!
  4. The Cherokee Indian The Cherokee Indian:... Do you know the legend of the Cherokee Indian youth's rite of Passage? His father takes him into the forest, blindfolds him and leaves him alone. He is required to sit on a stump the whole night and not remove the blindfold until the rays of the morning sun shine through it. He cannot cry out for help to anyone. Once he survives the night, he is a MAN. He cannot tell the other boys of this experience, because each lad must come into manhood on his own. The boy is naturally terrified. He can hear all kinds of noises. Wild beasts must surely be all around him. Maybe even some human might do him harm. The wind blew the grass and earth, and shook his stump, but he sat stoically, never removing the blindfold. It would be the only way he could become a man! Finally, after a horrific night the sun appeared and he removed his blindfold. It was then that he discovered his father sitting on the stump next to him. He had been at watch the entire night, protecting his son from harm. We, too, are never alone. Even when we don't know it, God is watching over us, Sitting on the stump beside us. When trouble comes, all we have to do is reach out to Him. Moral of the story: Just because you can't see God, Doesn't mean He is not there. "For we walk by faith, not by sight." If you liked this story, pass it on. If not, you took off your blindfold before dawn.
  5. I couldn't help but over-hear two guys in their mid-twenties while sitting at the bar last night. One of the guys says to his buddy: "Man you look tired." His buddy says, “Man I'm exhausted. My girlfriend and I have sex all the time. She’s after me 3 and 4 times a day. I just don't know what to do." A fellow about age 55, sitting a couple of stools down, also overheard the conversation. He looked over at the two young men and with the wisdom of years says: "Marry her. That'll put a stop to that crap!" Here is another the FDA has found a food that will decrease a woman's sex drive by nearly 95%! It's called: WEDDING CAKE!!! Ok ladies I'm ready for my well deserved beatdown!!!
  6. Deanna Favre to QB for Green Bay In a news conference Deanna Favre announced she will be the starting QB for the Packers next season. Deanna asserts that she is qualified to be the starting QB because she had spent 16 years married to Brett while he played QB for the Packers. Even though she has actually never played football at any level from grade school up and never run the offense of any team or played the game. During this period of time, she became familiar with the definition of a corner blitz, the nickel package, and man-to-man coverage, so she is now completely comfortable with all the other terminology involving the Packers offense. A survey of Packers fans shows that 50% of those polled supported the move. Does this sound idiotic and unbelievable or familiar to you? Hillarious Clinton makes the same claims as to why she is qualified to be the President and 50% of Democrats polled agreed. She has never run a city, county, or state during her "career" of being Bill Clinton's wife. When told Hillarious Clinton has experience because she has 8 years in the White House, my immediate thought was "So has the pastry chef." When it comes to running the State Department, her biggest achievement was getting a US Ambassador and 3 other Americans killed, by pretending terrorism had been defeated. If you want, pass this on. It makes sense!!!
  7. 5 undeniable facts 1. A girl is said to be grown up when she starts wearing a bra. A boy is grown up when he starts removing it. 2. We all love to spend money buying new clothes, but we never realize that the best moments in life are enjoyed without clothes. 3. Having a cold drink on hot day with a few friends is nice, but having a hot friend on a cold night after a few drinks - PRICELESS. 4. Breaking News: Condoms don't guarantee safe sex anymore. A friend of mine was wearing one when he was shot dead by the woman's husband. 5. Arguing over a girl's bust size is like choosing between Molson, Heineken, Carlsberg and Budweiser. Men may state their preferences, but will grab whatever is available. P.S. I haven't verified this on Snopes, but it sounds legit… P.P.S. A recent study found that women who carry a little extra weight live longer than the men who mention it.
  8. Good old tropical Minnesota!!! It's a dry cold!!!
  9. I know some as well, what it says to them is everything you did is for nothing, because if you would have broke the law and sucked tax dollars away from Americans, the government will make you a citizen anyway. What's sad is they probably can live better here without being "citizens", that would be where the free ride ends and they would have to start paying to support the riff raff. No doubt. There it is the token response, but, but, but, but Bush ............................................ It's in black and white, he's doing this to try and increase the Dem voting base for 2016. America doesn't want it, just like we didn't want Obummercare, but our dictator in chief doesn't care what we want and he sure as hell doesn't care what's in the best interests of this country. What ever it takes to stroke his ego as emperor is what he's going to do. That's the problem, he is going to do it by himself and bypass congress. As far as the big business shipping jobs overseas argument, it's obviously being thrown out by people who have never owned a business. Can you really blame them for moving to a more business friendly environment (not the US)? You know the kind where the government won't tax you to the point your employees make more then you do owning the business, or the unions don't control everything you do and force you to pay people ridiculous wages to have them sit on their @$$es? I don't blame business one bit, for looking to increase their bottom lines, who are these people to complain and try and control them and their profit margins? It's none of their business, it's not their business nor is it their money. Hey if you want to start your own business and pay your employees $100 per hour to flip burgers, go for it, don't tell me what to do with mine. It's so easy for people to whine about this or that as long as it isn't THEIR money that gets affected, imagine that. Anyone with that argument should ask Adam here on DV why he recommends moving accounts off shore. The US is not a friendly place to be if you have money, and the dumb @$$ liberals continue to try and steal it from others as long as nobody takes their piece of the pie, if that happens then they scream bloody murder.
  10. I have no doubts that is his life's aspiration, he thinks of the US as colonialism at its worst and wants to destroy it, he's said it himself in his books, look at his appointees, teachers, and people he associates with, the man hates the USA! Cheese tray with my beer!!! I have no problem with immigration, that's a good thing, however there is a huge difference between immigration and illegal immigration. If you want to be a citizen, get in line and follow the rules, the only thing this type of legislation does is tells illegals, hey you sneak in and milk the tax payers long enough and some idiot will make you citizens so you can vote for the next idiot. 5 million now, 15 million more later, another 30 million when they see what's happening, hell we may as well annex Mexico into the US problem solved!!
  11. This guy needs to be impeached and imprisoned as a traitor to the United States. He is blatantly going against the will of the people trampling our constitution and letting these ILLEGALS become citizens to gain votes, that's the only reason behind it, new voters for the Demorats! Pathetic, he cares nothing about working together, he couldn't get this crap through when he had the WH and the whole congress, but now the cry baby ego maniac is gonna ram some more Obummer crap down our throats! Obama plan would shield up to 5 million undocumented immigrants from deportationWASHINGTON, Nov 13 (Reuters) - President Barack Obama plans to announce an overhaul of U.S. immigration policy through executive action that would shield up to 5 million undocumented immigrants from deportation, the New York Times reported on Thursday. Such a move will set up a showdown with Republicans, who have blocked Democrats' efforts in Congress to reform immigration laws and warned the president not to take unilateral action on immigration. The Times, citing unidentified administration officials with direct knowledge of the plan, said Obama's proposed overhaul may be announced as soon as next week. Officials said it would allow many parents of children who are U.S. citizens or legal residents to obtain work documents and stay in the United States. The Times said Obama's plan will provide more opportunities for immigrants with high-tech skills and add security resources to the border with Mexico. Undocumented immigrants with family ties in the United States and no criminal record also would be considered lower priority for deportation than those with criminal records or who are considered security risks. Republicans, who won control of Congress in Nov. 4 elections, have warned Obama not to take unilateral action on immigration. Obama told congressional leaders last Friday he was committed to using executive powers to ease some restrictions on undocumented immigrants since Republicans in the House of Representatives had refused to advance immigration legislation. Mitch McConnell, who will be Senate majority leader starting in January, said if Obama took unilateral action on immigration, it would be like "waving a red flag in front of a bull." When the new Congress convenes in January, Republicans will have majorities in both chambers. http://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/obama-plan-would-shield-up-to-5-million-undocumented-immigrants-from-deportation/ar-BBdx2Jb Here is some more info from another article on it, with better numbers as to what he wants done: http://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/obama-plans-to-protect-up-to-5-million-from-deportation/ar-BBdwNAe Obama Plans to Protect Up to 5 Million From Deportation WASHINGTON — President Obama will ignore angry protests from Republicans and announce as soon as next week a broad overhaul of the nation’s immigration enforcement system that will protect up to five million undocumented immigrants from the threat of deportation and provide many of them with work permits, according to administration officials who have direct knowledge of the plan. Asserting his authority as president to enforce the nation’s laws with discretion, Mr. Obama intends to order changes that will significantly refocus the activities of the government’s 12,000 immigration agents. One key piece of the order, officials said, will allow many parents of children who are American citizens or legal residents to obtain legal work documents and no longer worry about being discovered, separated from their families and sent away. That part of Mr. Obama’s plan alone could affect as many as 3.3 million people who have been living in the United States illegally for at least five years, according to an analysis by the Migration Policy Institute, an immigration research organization in Washington. But the White House is also considering a stricter policy that would limit the benefits to people who have lived in the country for at least 10 years, or about 2.5 million people. Extending protections to more undocumented immigrants who came to the United States as children, and to their parents, could affect an additional one million or more if they are included in the final plan that the president announces. Mr. Obama’s actions will also expand opportunities for immigrants who have high-tech skills, shift extra security resources to the nation’s southern border, revamp a controversial immigration enforcement program called Secure Communities, and provide clearer guidance to the agencies that enforce immigration laws about who should be a low priority for deportation, especially those with strong family ties and no serious criminal history. A new enforcement memorandum, which will direct the actions of Border Patrol agents and judges at the Department of Homeland Security, the Justice Department and other federal law enforcement and judicial agencies, will make clear that deportations should still proceed for convicted criminals, foreigners who pose national security risks and recent border crossers, officials said. White House officials declined to comment publicly before a formal announcement by Mr. Obama, who will return from an eight-day trip to Asia on Sunday. Administration officials said details about the package of executive actions were still being finished and could change. An announcement could be pushed off until next month but will not be delayed into next year, officials said. “Before the end of the year, we’re going to take whatever lawful actions that I can take that I believe will improve the functioning of our immigration system,” Mr. Obama said during a news conference a day after last week’s midterm elections. “What I’m not going to do is just wait.” The decision to move forward sets in motion a political confrontation between Mr. Obama and his Republican adversaries that is likely to affect budget negotiations and debate about Loretta E. Lynch, the president’s nominee to be attorney general, during the lame-duck session of Congress that began this week. It is certain to further enrage Republicans as they take control of both chambers of Congress early next year. A group of Republicans — led by Senator Ted Cruz of Texas, Senator Mike Lee of Utah and Senator Jeff Sessions of Alabama — is already planning to thwart any executive action by the president on immigration. The senators are hoping to rally their fellow Republicans to oppose efforts to pass a budget next month unless it explicitly prohibits the president from enacting what they call “executive amnesty” for people in the country illegally. “Our office stands ready to use any procedural means available to make sure the president can’t enact his illegal executive amnesty,” said Catherine Frazier, a spokeswoman for Mr. Cruz. But the president and his top aides have concluded that acting unilaterally is in the interest of the country and the only way to increase political pressure on Republicans to eventually support a legislative overhaul that could put millions of illegal immigrants on a path to legal status and perhaps citizenship. Mr. Obama has told lawmakers privately and publicly that he will reverse his executive orders if they pass a comprehensive bill that he agrees to sign. White House officials reject as overblown the dire warnings from some in Congress who predict that such a sweeping use of presidential power will undermine any possibility for cooperation in Washington with the newly empowered Republican majority. “I think it will create a backlash in the country that could actually set the cause back and inflame our politics in a way that I don’t think will be conducive to solving the problem,” said Senator Angus King of Maine, an independent who caucuses with the Democrats and supports an immigration overhaul. The question of when the president should make the announcement is still being discussed inside the West Wing, officials said. Announcing the actions quickly could give Mr. Cruz and others a specific target to attack, but it would also allow immigration advocates to defend it. Waiting until later in December could allow the budget to be approved before setting off a fight over immigration. Although a Republican president could reverse Mr. Obama’s overhaul of the system after he leaves office in January 2017, the president’s action at least for now will remove the threat of deportation for millions of people in Latino and other immigrant communities. Immigration agents are to instead focus on gang members, narcotics traffickers and potential terrorists. Officials said one of the primary considerations for the president has been to take actions that can withstand the legal challenges that they expect will come quickly from Republicans. A senior administration official said lawyers had been working for months to make sure the president’s proposal would be “legally unassailable” when he presented it. Most of the major elements of the president’s plan are based on longstanding legal precedents that give the executive branch the right to exercise “prosecutorial discretion” in how it enforces the laws. That was the basis of a 2012 decision to protect from deportation the so-called Dreamers, who came to the United States as young children. The new announcement will be based on a similar legal theory, officials said. The White House expects a chorus of outside legal experts to back it up once Mr. Obama makes the plan official. In several “listening sessions” at the White House over the last year, immigration activists came armed with legal briefs, and White House officials believe those arguments will quickly form the basis of the public defense of his actions. Many pro-immigration groups and advocates — as well as the Hispanic voters who could be crucial for Democrats’ hopes of winning the White House in 2016 — are expecting bold action, having grown increasingly frustrated after watching a sweeping bipartisan immigration bill fall prey to a gridlocked Congress last year. “This is his last chance to make good on his promise to fix the system,” said Kevin Appleby, the director of migration policy at the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops. “If he delays again, the immigration activists would — just politically speaking — jump the White House fence.” Some groups, like the United We Dream network, the largest organization of young undocumented immigrants, are preparing to deploy teams to early 2016 states like Iowa and New Hampshire to press the case that Mr. Obama and Democrats stood by Hispanic voters before the presidential campaign. “From our perspective, the president has the power, the precedent and the priority for action on his side,” said Clarissa Martínez-De-Castro, deputy vice president of the National Council of La Raza. The opportunity “to go big and bold is what will allow the country to derive the biggest benefit on both the economic side and the national security side.”
