Oldiesmann: I'm not finding anything related to recipes on the site. I'll do some digging through the Internet Archive and see if I can dig them up. It's possible that got lost in the big server crash back in 2016

Dig, I was one that he considered rude to him.  Of course his rudeness was only fair criticism.  I am sorry he is so thin skinned that he cannot discuss differences of opinion without being offended.  Politics is not for the faint hearted.

Good thing Sandy and I are not that thinned skin.

Dig here is an interesting article on Brixit  A couple of key paragraphs:

"The document indicated that Germany would drive a hard bargain to “avoid offering false incentives for other member states when settling on new arrangements”. Specifically, the paper advocates “no automatic access to the single market”, Handelsblatt reported on Friday afternoon.

While Brussels talked tough, a chorus of European capitals, anxious to avoid clashes with their own Eurosceptic citizens, stressed that the Brexit vote should be seen as a wake-up call for a union that was increasingly losing touch with its people."

A 1952 Law

Here's a historic fact that would seem to indicate that many, if not most, of the people we elect to go to Washington don't have the slightest idea of what laws already exist. I did not know of this until now. It's been law for over 60 years.

Trump was recently severely criticized for suggesting that the U.S. should limit or temporarily suspend the immigration of certain ethnic groups, nationalities, and even people of certain religions (Muslims). The criticisms condemned such a suggestion as, among other things, being
Un-American, dumb, stupid, reckless, dangerous and racist. Congressmen and Senators swore that they would never allow such legislation, and the president called such a prohibition on immigration unconstitutional.

As Gomer Pyle would say, Surprise, Surprise, Surprise!" It seems that the selective immigration ban is already law and has been applied on several occasions. Known as the McCarran-Walter Act, the Immigration and Nationality
Act of 1952 allows for the "Suspension of entry or imposition of restrictions by president. Whenever the president finds that the entry of aliens or of any class of aliens into the United States would be detrimental to the interests of the United States, the president may, by proclamation,
and for such period as he shall deem necessary, suspend the entry of all aliens or any class of aliens as immigrants or non-immigrants or impose on the entry of aliens any restrictions he may deem to be appropriate.

The act was utilized by Jimmy Carter, no less, in 1979 to keep Iranians out of the United States , but he actually did more. He made all Iranian students already here check in, and then he deported a bunch. Seven thousand were found in violation of their visas, 15,000 Iranians were forced to leave the United States in 1979.

It is of note that the act requires that an applicant for immigration must be of good moral character and "attached to the principles of the Constitution.

Since the Quran forbids Muslims to swear allegiance to the U.S.Constitution, technically, all Muslims should be refused immigration.



June Drabek

diglady, I think this president would ignore any law we have in place if it differed with what he chooses to do. I don't know HOW he has gotten away with the destruction of so much already. Has our supreme court buried their heads in the sand ??

Explosive new twist in Idaho sex assault case
Federal prosecutor's stern warning 'threatens free speech' of citizens, media

The Obama-appointed U.S. attorney for Idaho has taken the highly unusual step of intervening in a local criminal case involving an alleged sexual assault by juvenile Muslim migrants and threatened the community and media with federal prosecution if they “spread false information or inflammatory statements about the perpetrators.”

WND and other news outlets have reported on the case involving three juvenile boys, two from Sudan and one from Iraq, who allegedly sexually assaulted a 5-year-old special-needs girl in the laundry room of the Fawnbrook Apartments in Twin Falls, Idaho.

Our great constitutional teacher and President once again protecting freedom of speech in the United States, not.  But don't ruffle the feathers of any Muslim.

DHS Whistleblower: Why Obama Is 'So Adamant To Protect Islam'


"“I can’t explain to you the ideology or the worldview of this administration that makes them so adamant to protect Islam from harm by addressing it in its true nature,” Haney said.

Islam, he noted, is not just a religion, but a system of laws â€" Shariah â€" that Muslims who adhere to fundamental teaching wish to establish over all the world.

“The power of Shariah is very difficult to exaggerate how much influence it has on the lives of Muslims around the world,” the whistleblower warned.

In fact, Haney believes America is presently locked in a battle between the U.S. Constitution and Shariah law.

“Are we going to submit to the influence of Shariah law and make it legal for one particular religion to have more than one wife?” he asked. “Or are we going to say, ‘No, you cannot implement those provisions as long as you want to be a citizen of United States’?”

The answer, according to Haney, is for Americans to become more familiar with the Constitution.

If you become more familiar with the Constitution, you’ll be able to see more clearly the points of conflict between the U.S. Constitution and Shariah law, and then you can discuss it without fear of being called a racist or a bigot or an Islamophobe,” he advised.

I know most of you wont bother to read the cited article, but you better start paying attention.  Our country is rapidly being given away to everyone except us.  And what isn't being given away is being sold by the Clintons.  I wont bother to post all that is out there from reliable sources.  I am flatout ashamed that we have so many that cant see the forest for the trees.

a poll you that should inform you.

Shocking Polls Show What U.S. Muslims Think of U.S. Laws

snip......

"Moreover, fully 12% of this Muslim sample even admitted they believed in application of the draconian, Sharia-based punishment for the non-existent crime of “blasphemy” in the U.S. code, answering affirmatively that:

    Americans who criticize or parody Islam should be put to death.

In June of 2015, data from a survey of another 600 U.S. Muslims conducted by the respected political pollster Kellyanne Conway revealed:

    51% … agreed that Muslims in America should have the choice of being governed according to Sharia.

Perhaps most frightening, 25% of those polled agreed:

    [V]iolence against Americans here in the United States is justified as a part of the global jihad.


Snip......

Snip.....
Forty years ago, Husayn al-Quwatli -- director general of Dar al-Ifta, the center of spiritual authority for the Sunni community of Lebanon, and author of the treatise Islam, the State, and Secularism (1975) -- candidly elucidated the Muslim Sharia supremacist mindset which perhaps best validates Trump’s moratorium:

    The position of Islam is very clear on one point, namely that the true Muslim cannot take a disinterested position vis-à-vis the state. As a result, his position with regard to ruler and rule cannot be an indecisive one which is content with half solutions.

    Either the ruler is Muslim and the rule Islamic, then he will be content with the state and support it, or the ruler non-Muslim and the rule non-Islamic, then he rejects it, opposes it, and works to abolish it, gently or forcibly, openly or secretly.

Snip.....

No doubt about it, Trump owns Obama.  By the way have you noticed Hillary's head lately, looks like a bobble head, her here constantly nodding.

Republicans slam grinning Obama for politicizing Dallas police massacre as he laughs his way through NATO summit

    President Barack Obama cheerfully yukked it up with British Prime Minister David Cameron during the NATO summit in Poland while Americans remained in shock after the murders of five police officers overnight
    Dr. Ben Carson carped at him for defaulting to gun control arguments
    Texas Rep. Pete Sessions, whose district includes parts of the Dallas metroplex, complained that Obama was MIA while the nation mourned
    Former Gov. Mike Huckabee dismissed Obama as a wedge-issue divider for pushing gun control 'at a time of great grief'
    National Association of Police Organizations chief said there is 'a war on cops, and the Obama administration is the Neville Chamberlain of this war'

Hal, Obama's actions prove that he is just what we thought all the time. A far cry from being a concerned, American President. I think of George Bush, and his reaction to 911. What a contrast.

I am waiting to hear if Mrs. May will be the new Prime Minister of England tomorrow. Looks good for her. That will be something if we get Mrs. Clinton for President. Mrs May for PM and already they have a female leader in Germany. So 3 main Countries. Women leaders. I was thinking that one in India also.  Be very interesting. Now if only Russia could get one. Who knows. Maybe on day women will be ruling things. Worked out pretty good in Roman Days.

a little something to show how the peace loving Muslims have impacted the world.

List of Islamic Terror:
2016

This is part of the list of Islamic terror attacks maintained by TheReligionofPeace.com.

During this time period, there were 1268 Islamic attacks in 50 countries, in which 11664 people were killed and 14087 injured.

https://www.thereligionofpeace.com/terror-2016.htm

And people want to bring these "peace" loving people to live in our country.  They don't want to "live" in our country, they want to dominate it. Stay in their own country and clean the vermin out.

I never thought that I would admit this, 
but I really like the way that Ted Cruz
stood up at the Republican Convention and
said what he believed in.   

That was very  brave of him.   Of course, 
as a devoted Democrat and Hillary Supporter, 
I don't support Cruz now or every will, 
but I loved his spirit and courage. 

Today everyone is talking about how Cruz
"Out Trumped"  Trump.. and no one is talking
about Trumps so called running mate......
eh.....  who was that now? 

Ha! 

It was spectacular!!!!!
