We already have walls, they don’t work. We have tried doubling down on stupid on tax reform, healthcare, education, and immigration. It’s time to do something different.
You claim to be an educated person but talk like a teenager in a schoolyard. "Bonespurs"? "Vanity Wall"? If you want an adult conversation listen to what the Obama appointed Mark Morgan has to say. https://www.foxnews.com/transcript/...ed-border-crisis-misleads-the-american-public
It's absurd to claim that walls don't work. It would be like saying the walls on your house don't work, your backyard fencing doesn't work, your locked exterior doors don't work, or your roofs don't work. The only time they don't work is when you don't complete the wall, when you don't complete the fencing, when you don't complete the locked doors, or when you don't complete the roof. So please, when you talk about doubling down on stupid, consider your own comments first.
Economies turn around by themselves naturally so it could have been better but, you know, got to 'change the way America works' with regulations and a pen and a phone. Look up Operation Choke-point.
If the walls worked there would be no apprehensions where walls exist. That’s not the case, best case they simply divert them to areas without walls such as bodies of water or open desert. A partial wall is a waste of money
My backyard has a brick wall — kids use to climb on it until I threatened their parents. The only thing that my fence does is keep my dog inside. It’s a small deterrent but not a solution for security. As for door locks I can quote some crime stats that show they don’t do anything but stop “honest criminals”. If you want to secure your home I have several shotguns I can recommend. And a security system. You analogy was extremely poor You should really reread your own post before you start calling others stupid.
My backyard has a rickety wood fence; yet it does exactly what it was designed to do; keep my dog in, and keep my neighbor's dogs out. It achieved that success by being a continuous fence, not an incomplete one. My analogy was spot on, and the use of the word "stupid" was your creation, not mine. So if you don't like the word, don't use it.
Does your fence run through several bodies of water? And trump is proposing declaring a national emergency to fund a partial wall, not a full one. No — it really wasn’t. People are actively trying to get into the country through various means, how long do you believe your doors or fence (or roof?) would last under constant assault? Not long. Failed analogy
Limbaugh would never do it. Limbaugh hasn't been in a live one on one debate since the mid 1990's. He can't survive in an element he does not controls, with a bank of screeners to chart the audience's mood, to the seven second delay and the kill switch. Limbaugh pretends to debate people all the time. But he always has the last word, because he kills the caller.
Really Limbaugh isn’t that bad.... This exchange between Wallace and him is bad but Sean Hannity is the main door knob in the Republican side. Limbaugh is actually a pretty smart guy whereas Hannity isn’t lol
I hope your right. As a Republican I think that the court allowing it might come back and wack us in the face down the road.
But if they can come in legally, you want them here, correct? If they are actually good for the country (and they are, that's a fact), then they are welcome.
You initiated "stupid" in post #101, well before I entered the conversation. If you don't like the word used in replies to you, don't initiate it in your replies to others. If I had the Rio Grande running around my backyard, I wouldn't need a rickety fence to secure my backyard, just as we don't need much of a border wall along the Rio Grande in Texas. Does that make sense to you? Yet we do need a complete border wall wherever there is not a significant natural barrier that acts as a natural deterrent. Even if Trump was not awarded the monies for a full wall, better to begin expanding our existing wall than not to expand it at all, as it would at least reduce the amount of open areas that would have to surveiled by other means. The need for a comprehensive border security system at our southern border is simply common sense, and a national crisis as well. To think otherwise is to think irrationally. If you had a leaking roof, would you let it leak for 10 years until your whole house was ruined, or would you have it repaired immediately?
