That is why the Dems (Charlie Brown) voted to open government. Now if you are a "Peanuts" fan you know that every time Lucy holds the football for Charlie Brown to kick she PROMISES him she won't pull it away but at the very last minute she removes it and he kicks at air and falls down. Well I betcha Lucy won't bring DACA up. He never had any intention of doing so. He just said it and the Dems bought it so they are going to fall on their a** again when it never comes up for a vote. SIGH. Charlie Brown is ever hopeful that Lucy will keep her word. Lucy is ever devious and loves tricking the poor sap again and again and again and again and again. I wish it were otherwise but it ain't! :( less
You make plans. You execute them flawlessly. At the end what you sought and got was not what you thought it would be. It was wanting/inadequate. How often does that occur I wonder?

I relate to them and think of them as "my" people too. They lost 6 million people during the Holocaust at the hands of the Nazis while Armenians just lost 1.5 million people during the Armenian genocide at the hands of the Turks long ago. Some of you know that. So it is with extreme puzzlement that I see a Stephen Miller being an extreme right-wing white racist. Or whatever you want to call him. White supremacist, white nationalist, ALT-RIGHTER. It would be like an African American joining the KKK and participating in lynchings. Bizarre. You become part of the group that destroyed millions of your people. How is that even possible? less

The results could be devastating@BayoumiMoustafaSat 9 Dec 2017 10.10 ESTLast modified on Mon 11 Dec 2017 10.50 ESTShares12,176Comments160jared kushnerThe entire Middle East, from Palestine to Yemen, appears set to burst into flames after this week. The region was already teetering on the edge, but recent events have only made things worse. And while the mayhem should be apparent to any casual observer, what’s less obvious is Jared Kushner’s role in the chaos.AdvertisementKushner is, of course, the US president’s senior advisor and son-in-law. The 36-year-old is a Harvard graduate who seems to have a hard time filling in forms correctly.He repeatedly failed to mention his meetings with foreign officials on his security clearance and neglected to report to US government officials that he was co-director of a foundation that raised money for Israeli settlements, considered ille... less

Without that kind of action, does it not run the risk of becoming nothing more than annual group therapy?

Every time he makes a decision that the ALT-RIGHT WHITES (Stephen Miller and John Kelly) don't like they "whisper" in his ear and force an "adjustment" that they do approve of leaving the donjohn looking mentally deficient/defective. As if he is a child who cannot possibly make decisions and need the "adults" to think for him. When the donjohn staff undercuts him he doesn't seem to notice it. It happens repeatedly and he seems to be oblivious to it. So the fight he has is the one with his staff who prevent him from deciding what he wants and allowing to do it. No wonder they get the big bucks. They are doing all the presidenting. What does he do? Golf, tweet, watch TV, eat in bed. It's not that he wouldn't do the right thing. It's that he is not allowed to do it by the hardright alt-right whites. He is a captive not the captain. less
