    Money that Congress those very people who are charged by the Constitution to approved funding allocated that money for military base and military base housing construction. Trump being pissed off that Congress would not approve funding for his Wall of Lies decided to steal from the military do to speak.

    Thank you for your service, but as far as "love of country" your posting history speaks otherwise and I am not a psychic.


    It was absurd the first time you said it, and now you're doubling down? You really think a bowling alley is more important than national security?? ROFL..... Unbelievable.

    Is Trump in this forum debating? Does every comment on every subject have to suddenly be about Trump? You people need help. The man lives rent free in your heads.

    Screw what the Constitution has to say about the power of the purse I guess. Not that Trumpists ever cared about the limitations of the Executive branch.

    That doesn't answer the question. It says daycare's and school will be affected. What does that mean? So before we get twisted maybe that should get looked into? And for the record Obama moved money around left and right with and w/o congress, and no one said anything.

    I found these

    https://www.nytimes.com/2019/09/04/us/politics/pentagon-projects-border-wall.html

    The point is money is being diverted from military projects and being allocated to fund the Trump Wall that Trump promised Mexico was going to pay for. That is wrong.

    Hell, if they don't want the wall on their property, I'd be tempted to say "fine, no wall for you". Once the illegals start funneling thru their property because it's the only opening, I'm thinking the property owners will have a change of heart. Then instead of fighting over eminent domain they'd probably be begging to have their property protected by the wall also :p

    Sad that those who never served. Don't serve their country, and never will serve their country are so quip to steal money from the military budget.

    the reality is, Americans are having less children due to economic uncertainty, so we need immigrants, yes laws need to be updated, but we do need them

    as for the wall, waste of money as that is not how most illegals get here, most come here legally and overstay visa's

    only way to fix that is to chip everyone at birth, so cops can scan people from a distance - you know, give up some freedom for security kinda thing

    I was once very passive about using the report function, but after the 20th or so time I had a post deleted over some minor irrelevancy because some snowflake conservative whined I figured why not join them. I am not above being just as petty as y’all are.

    But feel free, place me on ignore because you violate the TOS — you realize I can still report you even if you do, right?

    I can send you an extensive list of fellow conservatives that, under your new rule, you should also ignore.
    But we both know you won’t.

    Either way. Cheers

    Call it what you want, I have the scars to prove my love of country. How about you?


    No I believe the well being and moral of those who serve this country is more important than Trump's self made crisis. Now run along and tell that.

    I was responding to an imbecile who suggested that only Democrats spout slogans, so I reminded him/her that Trump’s 2016 campaign was comprised of almost all silly slogans and even had his clueless crowds chanting them at his behest.

    yes that's what the house said when they wouldn't approve funding for the wall
    thanks to the stubbornness of the house.
    Well it's national defense. There is a crisis at the boarder. One that could be helped with the wall.

    What's funny is the Democrats supported a border wall during George Bush's term. It's like they just changed positions because #Orangemanbad.

    Dems are made for slogans.

    Lets face it, its not a well thought out ideology.

    Shameful, even-for the elderly that espouse it.

    This sounds just like the game local governments use. Whenever their request to raise taxes gets shot down, they will then make up any shortages from sectors that will rile up the public. It's always fire departments, police, and schools who they claim will suffer, but in reality, they could find other areas to cut if they wanted to.

    You do realize that even most of your leftie crowd has come to admit the border crisis is real? You should stay more up to date on your talking points ;)

    The so called imbecile was responding to someone debating with bumper sticker slogans and noting that is SOP for liberals in this forum.
    Campaigns are always slogan based because they are advertising not debate. "Hope and change" "make America great again"
