    It needs a careful review. Why would you simply assume it's not worth reviewing? Should Trump just assume Obama's vetting system is adequate? Trump just took over, and needs to carefully review this critical piece of national security.

    Well, Obama's has worked, and we've had no terrorist attacks from refugees. I don't mind a review. But there's no need to stop refugees from entering while reviewing something that hasn't had any problems with it.

    Just LOL at your trolling. You've come into the thread late, and all you can do is hurl insults. Your posts speak for themselves. You are hereby lumped in with dandorotik and DudeWah as the bros who need to take a break, gather themselves, and try to compose themselves.

    You're unhinged, bigot-T! You need to relaxxx, pop open a cold one and then go chase some Mexicans back over the border like a good ole boy!

    So easy to dominate a bigot-T's mind.

    You are lost. Those views certainly do not represent my beliefs. You're talking to a guy who has spent significant time living and working in Mexico, and speaks Spanish. Those certainly aren't my views on immigration.

    You're just here to troll, and I'll be the bigger man and ignore you.

    Your posts over the last 10 years represents your beliefs. If you want people to think differently, you should have posted differently. You can claim you milked camels in Sahara for all I care - you're still a bigoted narrow minded thinker that has no interest in learning anything new.

    I'm not trolling you, I'm exposing you. You just have no clothes and are blind. If you were a bigger man, you'd actually stop and question your ideas. But you don't because you lack heart.

    Your link says Obama had specific evidence to halt refugee requests. Trump has presented none and is halting all immigration not just refugees. Trump is on record as wanting a Muslim ban and has cultivated this policy to ban Muslims in order to pass legal muster per Rudy Giuliani. There is acting responsibly because you have specific evidence that may require a halt and a review and then there's a white supremacist sympathizer with a neo-Nazi chief strategist implementing a policy that fulfills a white nationalist/supremacist agenda. Repeatedly conservatives dodge the racial angle by claiming it's just illegal immigration they oppose but here they are targeting legal immigrants with trumped up nonsense under the guise of safety.

    Awesome! You're intolerant of yourself, then! Wow!

    Yes, yes it is. As several here have done, pointing out how far out there YOU are. That you don't realize it is stereotypical of ...the very problem you are speaking out against. Physician, heal thyself.

    And this all started from a simple comment indicating that if something was true that that would indeed be a bad thing. ie, that he was agreeing with the statement. That he is agreeing and STILL getting this vilified shows just how unhinged the left has become...and all just 1 week into it.

    If the left isn't careful, they are going to create so much false outrage that they are going to make themselves politically irrelevant. Normally, I wouldn't point this out, preferring to just watch them do it, but they are so obtuse about it that they don't even see what they are doing. So, pointing it out isn't going to change it any. You, DudeWah, are nothing but a perfect example of this. Bravo!

    It's not accurate to call it a muslim ban, just like it's not accurate to call any and every liberal news story as "fake news". Fox invented fake news, so let's not get started. Don't fall for the sound byte slogans from Trump.

    Anyways, what is the ultimate goal? The goal is to make America safer. Does this executive order accomplish that? Let's see the facts.
    • There have been no terrorist attacks on US soil from the countries that he banned.
    • Most of the terrorists have been born in the US and have been living here for a long time.
    • The ban language leaves a lot of arbitrary decisions for people that have been in the US for several years on visas. Very unnecessary.
    • Why weren't the countries that have actually been known to breed terrorism (e.g., Saudi Arabia, UAE, Egypt) included in the list? Trump has businesses in those muslim countries. Conflict of interest.
    In the end, he does nothing to actually make America safer with that executive order. If anything, it fuels anti-American rhetoric and hurts the cooperation we can get from the muslim countries against ISIS.

    We are mostly politically irrelevant right now. I hope all our friends on the right side of the aisle, or some of them, can watch out for a steady scapegoating of the left, as the new executive branch pushes us further and further from our national identity -- i.e. ignoring court orders, handcuffing people with green cards and asking them for their views on Trump, etc, etc., insulting Mexico one day and Jews the next. On and on.

    If you care about some of these things, call your congressional rep.

    Oh, no offense taken at all. To me it's just strategy. Insulting someone's degree of education can only accomplish one of three things and maybe two at once:
    * Make an educated person feel insulted and definitely be less likely to listen to you, ever.
    * Make a person with less education feel insulted and even shamed by a "smug liberal."
    And while you may not care about those options...
    * Meanwhile, make fence-sitting lurking posters who have doubts about Trump just side against smug liberals and ignore the crap that is actually happening.

    Cheers.

    La tolerancia es la actitud de una persona que respeta las opiniones, ideas o actitudes de otros aunque no coincidan con las suyas.

    There seems to be a lack of tolerance lately.

    Several people have tried to discuss specifics, but the only post to which you respond is the one with the insult.

    Predictable.

    Conway's statement from Fox interview below:

    "It should not have been a surprise for the American people, and least of all for the Muslim residents of this country who happened to be abroad at the time the order was signed,” Conway said. “President Trump never kept this move a secret, he was always very open and honest about his post-inaugural intentions and I don’t see the reason for all the fuss. This was going to happen; it wasn’t a question of if, but a question of when.”

    She is specifically referencing Muslims, and she is referring to Trump's specific reference to Muslims during his campaign.

    Call it what it is, the administration sure is...

    Trump from day 1 wasn't my first choice, and I'll watch his actions carefully. But it won't stop me from pointing out the pure hypocrisy I see manifested in this forum every...single...day.

    Meanwhile, doubling down on hysteria, outrage, fringe causes, etc is a pretty stupid strategy for a party that has...by your own admission... become poltically irrelevant. How do you all think you got to be politically irrelevant anyways? (not directed at you specifically B-bob but the far left)
