    Illegal immigration was a much larger problem 20 years ago.

    The Border Patrol disagrees with that part about missing virtually all of them.

    Nebraska ain't Iowa or Alabama. See? Every cloud has a silver lining.

    I worked with people who took apart cars in a really dark part of the shop. They constantly missed finding damage that needed repaired. I told them they needed to demand better lights. They said they didn't miss things because it was dark.

    I said "oh, you're just stupid"

    You really take offense to tongue in cheek things I post.

    I do not want a WALL from the Pacific to the Atlantic.

    In the grand scheme of things it is just a drop in the bucket.

    All of this ties together for me though.

    I'll finally admit it is all about color......the color green.

    Why do I want out troops out of the Middle East?

    1a money
    1b troop safety. Yep, I am more concerned about the cost.

    Why do I care about illegal immigration?

    Money. That's it.

    No. Of the 4000 names on the terror watch list, only 6 were caught at our southern border. Most of the others were caught at airports.

    Our southern border is NOT the "most vulnerable point of entry". Trump and SHS are a Goddamned lie.

    That would be our airports.... You know, the place where TSA workers are calling in sick because trump won't pay them.

    Look how much of our border is NOT shared with Mexico.

    Money that MEXICO was supposed to pay....

    You'll pay 25+ billion of OUR money for a wall but not for healthcare? Not for tuition free college?

    Get your priorities straight..

    If it was really about money with you, you'd realize we could MAKE money off of the situation instead of spend it.

    I'm learning about a group that may be more like the way I think. There's no real definition yet but it is called alt-center.

    We need some group to take control of this mess. Right now I sit back and watch left and right fight over EVERYTHING.

    Amen, I'm sick of the bad behavior of both partys.

    I read a lot of history. This is not the first time in our history the two main partys were so far apart, because of pure politics. Sadly it took a major war to bring both partys to their senses to work together.



    Ok, this next part is meant to be fun, and "my theory" on how the term "party" fits with "political party".

    Going back 200 years, much of the campaigning for a political office was done in taverns and outings where alcohol was served.

    The candidate that bought the most beer often won the election.

    I miss the old days. It's time for a real "party" again. My vote if for sale. Where's the party?
