Remember the Hispanic guy who made it into the Whitehouse? Chances it was a set-up and symbolic?

Symbolic? Why would they need such symbolism? Unless it was functional symbolism. Isn't functional symbolism used to do wrong called sorcery?

Talk about a can of worms...

Rachel Maddow of MSNBC argues that Obama was simply doing what Reagan did in 1986 and Bush dis in 1990 with their executive orders.

A poster in another message here discussed Maddow and her comparison of Obama's 2014 executive order to Reagans' 1986 order and to Bush's 1990 order.

Below is my response to Maddow:

Internet and World Wide Web: Obviously they did not exist in 1986 and 1990 as we know it today.

1. So Maddow conveniently forgets to mention that the World Wide Web and sites like Facebook and Twitter did not exist back in Reagan's and Bush's time.

2. My point is this: If the millions of computers that exist today also existed way back then in 1986 and 1990, along with sites like Facebook and Twitter, Reagan and Bush may have also been highly criticized for their executive orders concerning illegal immigration.

3. In fact, MSNBC did not exist back then because cable tv was still working to get off the ground as millions of homes still did not have access to cable tv as we know it today.

4. Since MSNBC did not exist way back then, it means that Maddow would not be working there back then. Sarcasm.

5. In fact, since Reagan and Bush were Republicans, Maddow, if she was on tv at the time, would probably be severely criticizing both of them for their unconstitutional executive orders back in 1986 and 1990.

6. Maddow conveniently forgets this: A lot us were not happy with the 1986 Reagan immigration bill, but we were told that this bill would solve all our immigration problems forever and we could all then walk into the sunset and live happily after, so we reluctantly went along with the bill. How wrong we were, as we all know.

7. My point is this: If we knew then what we know now about how wrong Reagan's bill was, and we had the World Wild Web to voice our complaints about the Reagan bill, maybe we could have forced Reagan to not sign the 1986 immigration bill and any executive order that followed.

8. Maddow conveniently forgot to talk about this also: The United States was far different back in 1986 than it is today in 2014, and people were more relaxed then.

9. For instance, if one could go back in time, the California of 1986 would be barely recognizable as we compare it to the California of 2014, because illegal immigration, mostly from Latin America, has changed California forever.

10. Also,Southern states such as North Carolina, Virginia, Georgia, and Tennessee were not fighting an illegal immigrants invasion like they are today in 2014.

11. So, Maddow, it may appear to you that Obama is simply doing what Reagan did in 1986 and Bush did in 1990.

12. But in reality, the United States---with the explosion of the Internet since 1986 and the suffocating illegal immigration from the south---is so different from Reagan's 1986 and Bush's 1990 that comparing Reagan's and Bush;s immigration executive orders to Obama's executive order tonight is not only wrong, it is absurd, and because 1986 was so long ago in dog years, it is like comparing apples and oranges.

13. So Maddow, Obama's executive order must stand on its own merits. But the more we look at it, the more we realize that Obama is wrong, and his action goes against everything America holds dear. He is abusing the power of the Presidency. No doubt about it.

MadCow is a typical liberal -She never lets the facts stand in the way of her inane, moronic arguements.
