At least Iran doesn't have a nuclear bomb.
I really don't get you, dude. Are you just a troll, or do you believe this stuff? I'm one step from just putting you on ignore. I hate to, because you're one of the few left-wingers on here. But you're so silly-over-the-top, it seems trollish. I like good back-and-forth of ideologies, but you so poorly represent the left, I'm thinking you're trolling.

2014 and 2016. The opposition to the ACA was their golden ticket and they won whenever Obama wasn't on the ballot. I'm 100% against illegal immigration and I wish they'd be more aggressive in deportations and build the darn wall. When it comes to these DACA kids/young adults though, I think they should be granted amnesty as they were basically dragged here as children (under age 16). They have to meet certain guidelines such as being in school, having a job, and not commit a felony or have three misdemeanors. I'd trade them for some natural born Americans that I see milking the system on a daily basis.
To me this is was a know brainer. Funding for the wall, end to chain migration, and a merit based lottery system in exchange for amnesty to DACA recipients. We'll see what happens.
I can agree to all of the above, so long as they are never, ever, EVER grated any voting rights. That is the deal-breaker for me. And the end to chain-migration MUST be a part of any deal agreed to. So yeah, like I said, agreed to all

Chelsea Manning is running for the U.S. Senate in Maryland … between this and Oprah we’re pretty sure it’s safe to say the Democrats have lost their ever-loving minds.

Dag-nab-it, you asked me to try not to laugh a half second too late.

Every poll I've seen has shown at least 80% of Americans support amnesty for DACA recipients (87% in CBS poll released today) so the Dems know they have a winner there. Do I think it was worth shutting the government down over? No. They made this move with only their base in mind and not the American people as a whole (like I've criticized Trump for doing at times like calling NFL players SOB's).
I also suspect they made this move because they have Trump on camera (by his own doing) saying he'd sign any bipartisan deal on immigration they bring to the table and that he'd take all the heat for it. They did and he rejected it with the overhyped "shithole" comment. Also the timing was right in the Dems minds with the upcoming State of the Union and his one year anniversary of Trump's presidency. I agree with you that this may backfire on them though. It didn't for Republicans in '13, but we'll see what happens.
If by didn't backfire for R's in 2013 was in relation to the 2014 mid-terms, you're 100% correct; it didn't. But I think that had more to do with the short-term memory of the electorate. And honestly, I don't think this shut-down will have any affect on the mid-terms this year. I'd hope, if it did, that this time the electorate would properly punish those filibustering over something so trivial.
I'm aware of the polls you mention, but I think if you asked the average person an honest question such as "Should the government be shut down so that illegals aren't deported", they'd answer no. That's a straight question that even forgoes the complexities of the issue. But that's essentially what the D's are doing right now. And I hope when it all shakes out at election time later this year, that's the light it'll be seen in.
Since I've not really posted on this site much, and on this side of the board especially, I'll go on the record stating that I'm fully against illegal immigration, and 100% for streamlining the immigration policy to bring in the best and brightest. I come from this stance as someone with several friends and co-workers that immigrated her legally, and I know what they went through to do so. Every person that comes here illegally, and is granted any kind of status, is a gut-punch to those that did it the right (and extremely difficult, time-consuming, and expensive) way. We're a nation of laws; and I believe each time we allow someone to subvert those laws, it diminishes what we stand for.

My heart doesn't bleed for those here illegally, so screw the Dems if this is the hill they want to die on. This whole argument is a farce, and is simply a detraction from what is truly important at the current real news cycle - the FBI/DOJ scandal. I don't think history will look favorably on the Dems on this one, even if they're given the MSM cover for the moment.
And I'm tired of them referring to it by simply the acronym, as it tends to lose its meaning. It is Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals: translation: we don't immediately deport underage illegals. But why not? Why treat them any differently than any other illegal? I think that answer is clear: chain-migration. Give these DACA people some type of legal status, and they can then bring their families along for the ride. I say 'no thanks'.

I still want to upgrade, but it wouldn't bother me if he were to come back as a bridge QB next season. I wouldn't have said this 4 weeks ago, but unless we sign Cousins, Bradford, or Keenum, I'd like to have him back.
Even if we draft a top prospect it's good to have a quality veteran, and Hotrod is that.
Yes, Tyrod is that. And only Bradford would asuage my desire for a pock QB, !@#$ Cousins. And Tyrod or Bradford are my QB's until Baker is Buffalo's golden-boy in a year or two. And then also pay for one of those two to stay on as back-up.
-
Give me Baker or Mason, probably preferably Baker. But I wanna keep Tyrod around. And I think we can get either of them where we'll pick with one of our 1st's. I don't think there's a QB worth mortgaging the future, like you would have for Luck. I prefer we keep building the team, and upgrade where we can.

Keep Taylor until someone takes his job. Don't force it.
This X 1000. Let's not force another hole where one doesn't currently exist! Yes, let's upgrade if possible, but guys, we have the first playoff-caliber QB in 17+ years. Can we NOT run him OUT of town when he's still under contract, please?!

2 hours ago, Kelly the Dog said:To me it's a no brainer. You keep him. You do everything you can to get the guy you like to be the new guy, Rosen or Darnold, even if it takes two ones, two twos, whatever. Or if that is not possible you do everything you can to get the guy you like like Mayfield or Jackson or Rudolph, it doesn't matter. Get the guy you like but keep Tyrod. Let them battle it out in training camp. If the draft pick is anywhere close start him, and then you have the best backup in the league. If he needs some time, play Tyrod for a few games and see how the team responds.
This, please.

I don’t disagree. He isn’t going to be throwing balls at guys heads during warmups. At the same time I don’t think that he is intimidated by anyone. He is far too cocky for that. I think that the Bills need more of that.
I live in tulsa, Sooners fan for life, and yes we need some baker Mayfield on this team!!!

"Failed to preserve". Are we expected to believe that BS? This is the kind of stuff the general public, if it was reported at ALL, would NOT put up with. Good grief, at some point, even the MSM has to report this kind of stuff, right? I mean, even a 6-year-old knows that has to be BS.
