RE: 37 mental health experts sign a letter warning of Trump's 'grave emotional instability

First, the liberals created Super Delegates to help them win elections. Unfortunately, that failed.

Now they're hiring Super Psychologists, Super Psychiatrists and Super Social Workers in hopes to help them remove a president from office.

And they don't need to base their opinions from any medical/mental exams, perform any diagnostic laboratory tests or to diagnose psychological and interpersonal conditions...all they have to do is sit in an audience.
...and expect us to buy into it.

Lest we forget who they're still crying for and wanted so badly to get elected...

RE: Say Anything IV

We're in the midst of Winter and I found a full bloomed dandelion in my front yard today. I've never seen that before, kinda felt creepy yet it was amazing!

RE: looking for information

Look, I don't know how much more clearer I can spell it out for you. My post had absolutely nothing to do with faulting Obama. Get that? My post had everything, and nothing more, to do with how people, unassociated with either Obama or Trump, protesting the signing by one president while not protesting the other, over the very same issue, which happens to be temporary banning.

President Trump followed proper procedures, just as Obama did, in signing those bans. Just because you have a bur under your saddle over Trump being the POTUS does very little for your argument.

RE: looking for information

Oh, then that must have been an imposter portraying the POTUS, along with his cabinet...my, how they did a very good job faking the signing just so people like you can have a good laugh.
Enjoy your flurries with great fortitude.

RE: looking for information

Right, and you're obviously getting your news feed coming from MSM. You are aware that Trump's signing of the ban is on video, yes? And in that video how it clearly states the procedures taken BEFORE he ever signs it? I'll hazard to speculate that you had not seen the video.

So yes, it is double standards and rules were followed.

RE: looking for information

What I was saying is that people are supposedly out protesting a ban by one president, yet did nothing in protest to another president who previously did the very same thing, and even on a larger time frame with the ban.

I'm not sure what or how that has anything to do with election processes or crooks..

RE: looking for information

I've seen what ya did here. Quite ingenious to say the least.
Allowing anyone interested to do some research can easily find plenty of material that not only coincides with this topic, but also with other current topics.

And wouldn't you know, here's one of them;

"As a direct response to their arrests, the administration of then-president Barack Obama re-vetted 58,000 refugees already in the country, imposed vetting on 25,000 other Iraqi citizens still in Iraq, and significantly tightened the processing of Iraqi visa/refugee applications for six months. Obama also instituted a requirement for new background checks on visa applicants from Iraq; as a result, Iraq travel visas were issued more slowly. The changes in visa verification were temporary, and some Iraqi refugees continued to be admitted to the United States throughout the period."



Obama can issue a 6 month alteration on refugees without an outraged protest, but if Trump issues a 3 month alteration, the world goes nuts.

Double standards becoming the norm?

RE: Freedom, what does it mean to you?

Ah! Yours is coming soon?
Let me know how many times you do the after waking up, seeing the clock and thinking "Darn, late for work!!!" before it sinks in.
It took me a few days.

RE: Freedom, what does it mean to you?

To me, it's being thankful, grateful and appreciative to those who had sacrificed their freedoms so that I could have mine. May they all rest in peace.

That was my first thought when I saw the thread title.

I think what I like right now is not having to be on a routine schedule. No longer dictated by an alarm clock to get up, and no longer psyched into any specific timeframe to go to bed on a daily basis,
Now that's an enjoyable freedom.

Very nice thread topic, Annaroach

RE: Should Obama’s Nobel Peace Prize be revoked?

I'm not blaming Obama other than for accepting the award. I blame the committee that presented the award to Obama.
It was a rushed decision based on mere political campaign speeches Obama made, it was based on political promises and nothing more.

Since when has it become acceptable for people to receive such awards based on promises?

You can even read in wiki on what transpired over this prize.



"Jagland said the committee was influenced by a speech Obama gave about Islam in Cairo"

"The New York Times reported that Jagland shrugged off the question of whether "the committee feared being labeled naïve for accepting a young politician's promises at face value", stating that "no one could deny that 'the international climate' had suddenly improved, and that Mr. Obama was the main reason...'We want to embrace the message that he stands for.'"

"Obama said he was "surprised" and "deeply humbled" by the award. He stated that he does not feel he deserved the award, and that he did not feel worthy of the company the award would place him in. In remarks given at the White House Rose Garden on the day of the announcement, Obama stated, "I do not view it as a recognition of my own accomplishments but rather an affirmation of American leadership on behalf of aspirations held by people in all nations.""

Well if that's all it takes to win the Nobel Peace prize, then I nominate you, Serene, for the next one to be issued due to your long-standing desire for wanting global peace.

RE: Should Obama’s Nobel Peace Prize be revoked?

True indeed. Considering the Noble Peace Prize is representable to anyone promoting peace, including political.
I have observed Obama's activities even before he went political and nowhere had I found where he represented any nation nor anywhere he had made any national stace in promoting peace, prior to receiving the prize..
In short, he was awarded a peace prize for no reason at all.

It's like awarding a star to a student for receiving a high score prior to them taking the exam.

RE: Should Obama’s Nobel Peace Prize be revoked?

Had he been awarded the prize a year or so into his term as POTUS he may have been more qualified for it. He did reduce the U.S. military, at least. Then it wouldn't have been as questionable. But he was issued the prize right after being sworn in during his first term, long before he had done anything to earn such a prize.

RE: Should Obama’s Nobel Peace Prize be revoked?

But none of that coincides with; "shall have done the most or the best work for fraternity between nations, for the abolition or reduction of standing armies and for the holding and promotion of peace congresses"

Obama never did anything for other nations prior to taking office in the Whitehouse. He did nothing to reduce armies, since he was never a part of that governing body. And he did nothing for the "holding and promotion of peace congresses" since he was only a senator of the state of Illinois prior to becoming POTUS.
He represented a single state, not the nation.

RE: Should Obama’s Nobel Peace Prize be revoked?

I believe, after seeing how such a prize becoming so degraded of value and merit, having been awarded to an unbefitting laureate, that the Norwegian Storting be more careful in selecting the Norwegian Nobel Committee.

Obama had just taken 1st term in office as POTUS when receiving and accepting such an award. This does not bode well with what the award stands for...

"Alfred Nobel. According to Nobel's will, the Peace Prize shall be awarded to the person who in the preceding year "shall have done the most or the best work for fraternity between nations, for the abolition or reduction of standing armies and for the holding and promotion of peace congresses"." ~Wiki

Obama should have declined the award to begin with, since he had done nothing to have earned it. It would have been the more honorable and respected thing to do.

But as it stands, shame on the Norwegian Nobel Committee for offering the prize, and shame on Obama for accepting it.

RE: What is like to be American?

I've snipped the first part of your post due to it not being of any concern to me. On what I have kept, I'll agree with most of what you've said. I'm all for having our government pull back from "aiding and abetting", interfering with and governing other countries.

So let Iran build nukes--no one should be concerned that they'll ever use them, they just want them for novelty values.
So let other countries get overturned by the real invaders and perpetrators...sovereignty no longer holds any true value anyway.
So let Russia, China and other countries continue spying on everyone else without intervention.
So let all countries tend to themselves, especially during natural disasters and crises.
No, we shouldn't expect the U.S. to be one of the first to donate aide and funds to help other countries in need.
Because with the aforementioned statements and many others not mentioned, is exactly what the world will get should the U.S. keep our nose out of their business.
Let's see how it all plays out, shall we?

The U.S is in dire need of tending to our own backyard, as that should be our primary objective and rightly so. And that is exactly what your "circus clown," our president is doing. And in doing so we're seeing him receiving a lot of flak from real Snowflakes because what he is doing does not infer with nor allow concession to their own agenda(s.)

RE: Tribute to Jack Frost

Fixed.

RE: Need Opinions

Well ready the hot cocoa and keep the muffin warm! The rest of me will thaw while mowing.

RE: Need Opinions

You made that sound too easy. There's a catch, I just know there is.

...but I'll hop right on it anyway!

RE: Need Opinions

Well then...guess that leaves me left to cutting grass....in 3 feet of snow, in Mississauga.

I so hope it's worth it!

RE: Need Opinions

It'd just be my luck too.

Would I need a permit to chop wood in Manitoba?

Me thinks I'll go chop down a tree...in Toronto.

RE: Paddock to Plate

Tomatoes (roma), a variety of chili peppers and wild garlic are usually my staple homies. I probably should include the wild onions (chives) that grow all over the yard as well. I didn't plant 'em, just pick 'em.
Last Summer I got some seeds from a Carolina Reaper eating contest, so I'm gonna see how they grow here.

RE: What is like to be American?

Yup, as long as we can keep those with matches and lighters at a safe distance from it.

RE: What is like to be American?

I'm with you there! Still a mystery to be solved.

i swear that's making me feel like I had entered the Twilight Zone!

RE: What is like to be American?

It's always a good feeling to have great neighbors.

Maybe the next time I'm in your hood we can get together and go live it up in Quebec, in spite our past experiences there.
