I didn't care for either of those Presidents'.................it's not the point people..........deal with the present moment focus please we have to keep our country safe first it's not our problem and we would do well to start minding our business because in case no one is paying attention this country is pretty f*cked up

Are we forgetting about the $19 Trillion in debt or the poor job recovery or any number of ClusterF*ck of problems we have in Amerika

We don't have the time/money/desire to take in culturally backward people that need to clean up their own Shiate pile and stop playing helpless victim.

If you think with your logical, rational brain, instead of your heart you will do much better and get less manipulated in life.

Could you explain what you meant here, then? I'll ask you again: do you honestly believe that the Iraq War was legitimate, and if so, that it has had no negative impact on the region as a whole, or in Europe, or, possibly now, the US? I'm not asking you to "delve into the intricacies" of the war, btw.

But don't let facts get in the way of your narrative.

And these radicalized, first generation adherents of Islam murdered 129 innocent folks. Islam is not compatible with Western culture. It is a political system that demands submission to the overlords which gee, are Islamists. There is no room for any other beliefs. They might have been living in France and Belgium, but their hearts and minds were immersed in Islam.

My statement was made quite clear on the previous page. If you don't like my responses, stop asking me non-relevant questions. You're quite pesty in your insistence that I engage you in the topic of your choice. Take my refusal to indulge your desire to chat about my opinion of the Iraq War as a 'win' if you wish. I'm sticking to my original statement that the Muslim desire to stamp out lives is a thousands year-old objective that pre-dates any modern American conflict.

Those are two different questions and two different objectives. I feel the Iraq war was legitimate but I also feel it has had a negative effect on the region.

But Saddam and his family were not nice people, they heavily used torture, and I am not talking about water boarding, and they used rape as tools and for pleasure.

I feel the Arab Spring had more to do with the civil war in Libya than the war in Iraq.

Also you should check your facts. France actually opposed the second invasion of Iraq so why are they being attacked if this is retaliation for the war in Iraq? I have no reason to believe that ISIS had any love for Saddam.

The federal govt does not have the authority to bring refugees into the country in the first place - it is unconstitutional.

Which "Iraq" war … ???

Iraq against Iran (1980-88), in which we *good*guys* actively assisted Saddam's regime … ???
Iraq's invasion and annexation of Kuwait (1990) … ???
Gulf War I (1990-91), in which United Nations forces expelled Iraq from Kuwait … ???
Gulf War II (2003) … ???

Here is a portrait of the “refugees”. Notice the body builder in front. He is posing for a selfie but our boys have to go and fight for him. He is just a portrait of a starving refugee. That’s one impressive Samsung tablet. Your typical refugee ware. My iphone dies at the end of the day but these guys managed to keep theirs charged on a dingy.

Probably an Advance Guard for the coming invasion of Space Aliens ...
