That’s where our anger should be directed.

So true!

But HOW do we go about getting our RULERS to ...


...protect us from enemies; foreign and DOMESTIC?

...getting the MAJORITY of the people to love a government shutdown?

The last 'shutdown' was NOTHING of the sort!

Our rulers inflicted pain in sensitive areas to the POPULACE who then directed their wrath at the WRONG target!

I hope we've learned our lesson.

The rulers MUST be grabbed by the GONADS to get any change in the right direction to happen!


Where are the Horatio's of today?

Tough thing to do when THEY are the domestic enemy.

Only had to look at the title. I am firmly on the other side. Since America is sliding swiftly downward, to the point where the flags are miraculously changing to surrender flags, I’m sure his idea will prevail. We’re on the way already.

“To take it out on the illegals is to focus on the wrong problem. The problem is American politicians, bureaucrats, corporations and regular people who see a benefit for them to let those people in. That’s where the focus ought to be.”

The problem is how to get them out of the country against the wishes of American and Mexican politicians, bureaucrats, corporations and regular people.
