The so-called "mainstream media" consists of many stations fighting for advertising revenues. They are alright.

As for "most of any presidents," does this take into account inflation?

Obama spent the most money of any presidents combined. Right?

Wait, I'm not sure if you're going to believe that because you watch too much mainstream media. Right? Mainstream media lie to me way too much.

It did not say that. Maybe includes that or not?

It's important to take inflation in account. For instance the dollar count spending of, say, Obama could be the highest, but with inflation taken into account other presidents may score much higher because the dollar was worth more back during their presidencies.

I'm going to go ahead and say that if anyone believes Obama's government has already spent more in a year and four months than all other presidents combined, they need psychiatric care.

maybe they shouldnt hang around with illegals then?

or maybe you should grow a brain and read the law? it was already ammended to specifically say race cannot be used.

why are you defending illegal aliens? dont you love your country?

As soon as a Democrat gets in office they scream about spending like Democrats invented it. Just a cheap political ploy that they keep using because people like you keep believing it.
you have no clue what a deficit and debt are, do you?

all presidents have ran a debt. clinton got lucky and had a brief surplus but we were still in debt as a nation when he left office. dont let that fact bother you

Please read up on things before you make blanket statements like this one. Get your facts straight, please. This immigration issue applies to people who have committed crimes, not just random people off the street. If an illegal commits a crime, then and only then can law enforcement check their immigration status.

er, most hispanic people identify as christian / catholic and do indeed shun gays. its whats taught in church, or didnt you know that?

if they claim to be christian / catholic BUT they are in favor of stupid notions like homosexual marriage, they are not christian / catholic, no matter how much they scream and shout that they are.
