    Oh but that's where you are wrong. and that's fully understandable because you really don't know anything about even this country really much less any other country..

    There are lines waiting to get in almost everywhere.
    France, UK, Canada, Germany, Italy, NL, Sweden, Finland, even Russia, even in People's Republic of China, into various other American countries from others. that's because there is , except some real desperate places, always somewhere better.

    Not sure why you took it personally, but then again that is your issue not mine.
    Elsewhere perhaps ,but rest assured I love and I'm content with my illusion of the freedom in my country and would never be tempted to exchange it for any other, especially for the country whos flag you're waving, therefore I don't see a need for you knocking on my door and giving me a lecture on the matter .
    Keep it fast, keep it real!!!

    Hear hear. Now, if some of the brain-dead knee-jerk reactionary right-wing media trolls in my country can get a handle on this concept, as it relates to the immigration debate in Australia, maybe some sanity and compassion might result? I am still refraining from holding my breath, however.

As for your belief/opinion that hundreds of billions were wasted, that's fine. But let's compare that supposed number (which I doubt is correct) to the actual costs of Operation Iraqi Freedom: approximately $825 billion through FY2012. There is also the question of $10-$15 billion in American cash that is yet to be accounted for, sent over by the Bush Administration, that is apparently floating around in someone's pocket in Iraq. This nation-building exercise has turned out to be the second costliest "war" in American history, just behind World War II. And for the record, I am very much in favor of slashing ALL foreign aid, including that to Israel. It's time for others to pull their own weight, without relying on the American taxpayer.

    So anyway, the (factual, data based) evidence mounts: W. Bush brought us the second costliest war in American history and the worst economic downturn since the Great Depression. Our pal, George W.: Winna, winna, chicken dinna!




    That's nice but it doesn't have anything to do with the fact that I posted: there were approximately 8 million jobs created during Carter's administration. You wanted one single positive and I gave you a positive. If 8 million jobs had been created during W. Bush's administration (instead of a net loss), I would also list that as a positive for him. So no, no need for me to try again. I gave you what you asked for the first time.
    You have yet to post one thing positive to come out of the Carter Administration. The Camp David Accords just legitimized Islamo-Fascism and those job numbers were false.


    Try again.

    Seriously?

    You are comparing people strolling across unguarded borders with the tens of 1000's every year trying to legally enter the USA and the Millions who risk life and limb crossing desserts and oceans?

    I see. No Anthony, no more "try again". I don't waste my time posting facts to people who deny facts. 2+2 doesn't equal 4 if one insists on not believing it.
