Actually, if you read your history, he was.

How about we discuss why you support illegal activities of elected officials?

Once again your assumptions, which you call facts, betray your total bias.

Ummm, it is apparant that you cannot conceive of anyone not spending the entire day on these forums. Some of us have better things to do, like work or have a life.

If you are going to attempt to insult, at least have some fact at your disposal. Since you obviously do not, I deem the rest of your comments to be worthless.

What laws has the president or other elected officials are you upset about?
Let's start with immigration.

BTW, the president is the chief law enforcement offical in the nation, so yes he does have a duty to enforce the laws.

I realize this and I would not have made the comment if not for the fact that you had been back making your vague comments without addressing my question.

My question was in post #5.

Indeed. We all should be upset but we should have been as upset when Bush 43, Clinton, Bush 41, Reagan, etc did not secure the borders and sweep up the illegals.

As I noted in post 2, we will have to throw out nearly every elected official. Not that I am really against that.

I think you are confusing the office of the President with law ENFORCEMENT. Not surprised. We elect a President not a Sheriff, I suppose in right wing world there is no difference
Yet this very president that we elect appoints the attorney general, in effect is his boss. That alone makes him the chief law enforcement agent.

I think that you are confusing your desires with the facts.
