She should not have left her little puppy. I hope it's with someone who cares about it and not a kennel.
No. Trump isn't going to appoint judges who will overrule him. Anybody with power can rationalize any way possible to get from Point A to Point B anyway.
I hope they make an exception for him. Worried about his dog.
Didn't see the top part when I responded you disgusting cunt. Ph, did you ninja edit that in?
What? There's a picture of a woman with a woman's name.
It's a woman you dipshit.
I think the argument most people made back then was predicated on anti-Semitism. But for those that did make an economic argument, the tragedy that unfolded does not mean the point they were making was incorrect, though it might have been. Anyway to answer your question, no, I don't think it was right to turn those people away and more should have been done by the global community to help them. But what do you suggest- we take in the billions of people in the world who are constantly at risk and are forced to eek out a living on less than $2 a day? What you want to see happen is that we continue take in a miniscule percentage of those in danger, plucking them from refugee camps as the lucky chosen ones, as well as continuing to allow millions to cross our southern border, without regard for our own unemployed and vulnerable citizens (you've admitted before something like you're not concerned about what happens to poor Americans or our environment as a result of immigration). Instead of taking the most capable people from these camps, which is often what we do, it makes more sense from my perspective for them to remain in the region until things settle down and they can return to their homes and help to rebuild their country. They've made it to a relatively safe country. I understand people wanting a better life. But if we cleaned out the camps and allowed them all to immigrate it would devastate the livelihoods of our own people. The sad reality is that we can't significantly help the people in these regions through immigration AND immigration does hurt native born citizens. Instead of picking the most capable from the camps and contributing to a brain drain in the region, we need to help them where they are.
Our country is an absolute joke right now. We're promoting torture and arbitrarily telling people they're no longer allowed in the country they've lived in, legally, for years because they are Muslim. Democrats and moderates need to stop being pushovers and start telling this fascist right wing minority to fuck off.

DeacMan, why would Trump nominate and the Republicans approve someone who will get in their way?
I get how courts work. You don't get how this government works.
