the whole "why is this so hard to grasp" will rely on the same bullshite "arguments" used to call the Constitution a "living document"

and it's not just a DEM issue. the GOP historically loves using that argument when it suits them

You don't see "common sense" and James Woods used that often in the same sentence.

This quote shows why.

Politicians on both sides love making laws. Making laws generates credibility and headlines. They don't care near as much for taking measures to see that the ones already on the books are enforced. There are no headlines for that.

I wonder if he told Reagan the same thing back in the 80s.

I think equating the "dreamers" scenario to criminality is pretty silly.

So he's screaming that minors who had no knowledge of or intent to break immigration laws should be thrown in jail.


No he wants them deported and wants jail time for anyone that enables them to stay...meaning lawmakers of sanctuary cities.

The Far Left's positions, policies, and philosophies don't support much of anything other than open borders - which are exactly the same thing as no borders at all. And they certainly disregard plainly written law.

A country is basically defined by borders, language, and culture(which itself can produce things like laws).

Ergo, the Far Left's long-term goal appears to be the dissolution of the USA...

Sometimes people who break the law are allowed to avoid charges. Lawfully.

Pardoned felons like Arpaio.
Government informants.
690 thousand people brought here illegally.

GOP is not negotiating with Dems to enforce the law. They're negotiating with dems who want to change the law.

Dems are standing ground on an issue that sides with "illegals" based on humanitarian and economic grounds. If they have been here their entire lives, contributing to our system (point of debate obviously), it makes sense to allow them to continue.

Most in this board will now raise pitchforks at the notion, but his is playing out exactly how checks and balances are supposed to work. The party in power is experiencing resistance from the minority. As responsible leaders, its their job to govern responsibly and not demand that the opposition bend to their might.

Every time I see James Woods' name, it makes me want to watch The Boost (1988) again.

Good movie about him moving to California and getting addicted to cocaine and his life falling apart.
