That was funny.
But if Trump said it, that would be different.

I only point it out because Trump said he consulted them.So who do you believe, and why?
How does an infant know if they are allergic to something they've never been exposed to?First, not all drug reactions are "allergic" reactions. There are other types of reactions.
So, let's consider a population of a million people. Or N million people where N > 1, if it matters.Very few vaccines are 100% effective. MMR is about 93% effective.
Let's put aside the (very small, hopefully) portion of the population that have an adverse reaction to a vaccine for <disease X> (this reaction is not necessarily known prior to the vaccination)
In a hypothetical case where everyone except for 1000 people get vaccinated, what risk to the vaccinated population is presented by the 1000 unvaccinated people?
I met a young man who became sterile as a result of a vaccine. He was 29.That wasn't a real vaccine.
'Gimp,I seriously doubt Gimp was advancing the "Obama = Hitler" analogy. I think he was merely stating that it was less of a stretch than "Trump = Hitler". I don't think Obama is near the demon that Hitler was. But he has a very similar ability to mesmerize the masses through skillful oratory.
Wow!
What an articulate, well reasoned post. Thanks for that.
There's an expression: "The perception is the reality".
And my post on the topic was simply answering the allegation that the Trump=Hitler was concocted by the media, solely to bring Trump down. Emphasizing the fact that I had had a similar sentiment prior to reading it elsewhere. It was, in fact, a particular speech I listened to in my car where he was mocking Bush and Kerry in a very sarcastic, bombastic manner, and it all just sounded familiar, somehow.
Admittedly, "The Rise and Fall..." is not the be all and end all chronicle of what happened there, but I trust it got the broad sweep correctly. Another gem is "Berlin Diary", also by William Shirer, outlining a small slice of what transpired in the first person as a correspondent. Well worth the read. And available somewhere online as a pdf, IIRC.
But, again, thank for your post, and I see where you're coming from. Though the "Obama=Hitler" seems like a bit of a stretch.
A cool way to cross the border:They would only take those jobs as long as they paid substantially more than "government assistance", which in all of it's forms can be quite substantial. Why work hard when you can receive almost as much by not working, or by working "off the books".

As to thread topic, I totally believe that if the illegal alien flow dried up, American citizens would step into a large number of the jobs that would open up, if indeed Americans are unemployed and desire to work. It's human nature to improve one's lot. And it would really help if the government didn't support people who refuse to work.
Or a fallible human that made one grievous mistake.Nope. She was an idiot that made a grievous mistake. I hope she learned from it.
Well, I was talking about the deficit, sorry... US budget deficit, so I thought it kind of obvious that it would be about raising tax revenue. There are differing ways to raise tax revenue and among them is raising tax rates. It is likely that any real solution would incorporate raising tax rates as well as a host of other schemes. We have a lot of debt to pay down.There are a lot schemes we can use to cut the deficit. But first among them is to reduce deficit spending.
"raise taxes" - is that raise tax rates or increase tax revenue?Thanks, you saved me the trouble of stating that obvious factoid.
No, not everything, but we do have a hand in ISIS.Please explain why you think "we" created ISIS. And please be specific as to who "we" is, because I don't think I had much of a hand in it.
Well for one, that's sensationalism in media. Yes the B-52 is nuclear capable, but it doesn't guarantee that it will be carrying nukes.I think everyone knows that "Fellow" is a "cleaned up for polite society" to refer to the common colloquialism.
And that's not what BUFF stands for- LoL
