Say on my tv last night a laughing and mocking "sanctuary cities" Obama attacking the Republicans on immigration.

He was having a grand old time revving up the audience to fever pitch with his laughing ridicule.
The no-idea crowd obviously fell for it all.

"Open borders" has been a dismal failure in the rest of the 'Christian' West...but Leftists in America think it's going to be a huge success there.
Poor souls, they're in for a rude shock.

Very good Bambu, except that your color blinders have you confusing the left and right. The right is the source of bad motives, bad policies, and bad actions expanding the frontiers of the third world.

It is NOT OK to be a right wing xenophobic chauvinist whatever color you paint yourself. It makes you the victim of the plutocrats and kleptocrats that feed on boobs like you.

This open border concept is entirely fictional and packaged and delivered to make you shit your pants.

The dirty bomb got in through your mind and caused the detonation in your underwear.

Most of us have developed better defenses against such asinine bullshit. Why haven’t you?

Another GOP candidate, another bigot:

The embrace of racially charged policies and rhetoric by Republicans, from President Trump to candidates across the country, has emboldened white-supremacist groups, and, critics say, raised questions about the party’s intent.

Initially, folks in the GOP denied any such content was there. They backed off as more flack came their way:
Quote
“When I look at that, I don’t see Jewish,” J.R. Romano, the state party chairman, told the Hartford Courant. "The Democrats have false outrage all the time.”

But both changed their tone after media attention and outrage about the ad continued to grow on Wednesday.
Charamut’s campaign issued an apology to Lesser, the Jewish community and anyone else offended by the mailer, saying in a statement that the mailer was not intended to be anything more than a political statement about Lesser.
“However, it is clear now that the imagery could be interpreted as anti-Semitic, and for that we deeply apologize as hate speech of any kind does not belong in our society and especially not in our politics,” the statement said. “Up until election day we will continue to focus on the issues and it is our sincere hope that people will understand that we in no way ever intended for the mailer to be about Mr. Lesser’s religious background.”

Nothing new here. Nor unique to this specific campaign:

We see it every day...hordes of legal immigrants pouring in...changing the landscape forever.
'Immigrant ethnic ghettos' everywhere....where most of them seem to cheer against Australia and for their 'homelands'...even if they were born here!!!

'Open borders' is not fictional...until the Conservatives gained power in bambuland in 2013...the Left/Far Left Labor govt had done an 'Obama' and 50,000 asylum-seekers on 800 people-smuggling boats had arrived uninvited from the Middle East via Indonesia, and from Sri Lanka.

Now that all that has been stopped, the next generation of leftists from the "left-wing voter factories called schools" is about to boot the Conservatives out of office and install Left/Far Left Labor Party as govt once again. Could be that the 'asylum-seeker/illegal immigrant/economic immigrant' [call them whatever you like] people smuggling boats will start up again...the Left having no real resolve to stop them.

Of course. Anyone who can read a map and count knew that any net gain for Dems in the Senate was a long shot, but Trump is starting to message how he "saved the Senate".
That’s quite a leap to nonsense.
The fact that despite being a long shot it is closer than expected underscore the vibrancy of our democracy.

My post is self explanatory, Mr Utley. It is all in there. They are working to bring programs to Kentucky to match the money with their ideas, and to create jobs in Kentucky so that the people do not need to leave to find jobs elsewhere.

I had family in Kentucky in the 1800s.

No. It was generalized and lacking any details. You do that alot. You are easily misled. How is Marco Rubio, btw?

It's all his fault he turned violent.

"Involuntary celibate"...haven't heard that one before.

Apparently on the dating scene today, for a man to be successful he has to be "Tall, dark and handsome, with a large...……………………………………...income."
...according to a survey of women.

You don't have to do much to be labelled "misogynist" these days.
All you have to do is criticize a woman/women in any way...or not do what the Left/Women think you should do.

"Misogynist", "racist", "sexist", "predator", "white supremacist"...there's no limit to the Left's/Women's bag of 'tricks'.

Former Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbott...was elected PM in 2013.

https://www.abc.net.au/news/2012-10-10/international-reaction-to-gillard-speech/4305294

Julia Gillard's speech slamming Opposition Leader Tony Abbott for being a misogynist has gone viral, with newspapers and blogs around the world taking notice.
During a vitriolic day of parliamentary debate yesterday, Ms Gillard unleashed on Mr Abbott's character.

US feminist blog Jezebel called the Prime Minister "badass", while news blog Salon magazine speculated on whether Ms Gillard would take requests to "take on Congress's misogynist caucus".

If the total does not add up to the same figure then no, Redd, your reasoning is bogus.

But... the GOP lies all the time.

Dave Brat (R-VA): "We lie all the time."

Nice of him to admit it where others could hear him.

Quote
Said Brat: “The problem is we’ve lied. Both of our leaders…Paul Ryan’s a nice guy, but he said he was going to repeal Obamacare. That’s a lie. It was not a repeal at all. And so, we lie all the time.”

He added: “Everybody wants to go back to like the 50s when people were sane. But I don’t think so. It’s a war right now.”
