313.9 million Americans vs. one little president. The odds are quite astounding. To be the losing party with such unfathomable odds, at least some stupidity is at work here.

"As you said, if they were so concerned about terrorists from foreign countries getting into the US, how come the southern border is pretty much wide open..........."
We have four borders. The southern border is the most heavily guarded. If someone wants to come in by sea, or through the great north woods, they will find little resistance as long as they don't call attention to themselves. Stop buying the RWNJ mantra about the southern border.
So by RWNJ you mean right wing nut job? Is that it? Why make this a right or left issue when it's clearly north and south You do realize that the 12 million illegal aliens that they want to naturalize came thru the "southern border", don't you? But yes, it's secureedit on 19-6-2013 by Bilk22 because: (no reason given)
Ahh LesMisanthrope The President is just the Speaker
its the Clubs, Secret Society's, The Hand Full of men .within Politics and Business that is Linked to them... they are behind the grand old Wizards Curtain.... and what is Lead out from those People are the Advisers and mostly when a President disobeys they ! ... Well you know.... Lincoln Kennedy and those that Would of more likely would of became Bobby Kennedy ... for an example ...
We are not just stupid, we are pig-headed. We cannot discuss anything at all, even something that has no material effect, without attacking one another. If we were even more stupid but less egotistical, we would be far more threatening. We might be able to agree on something and trust one another.

That just so happens to be the very culture you buy into, fund and break your back for. This system is built on a culture that pays for it, builds it, and elects it to office. These shadowy groups are steering it over a cliff, but we're the ones carrying it there head in harness.
The Knights of the Golden Circle (KGC) was a secret society. The original objective of the KGC was to annex a golden circle of territories in Mexico (which would be divided into 25 slave states), Central America, northern South America, and Cuba and the rest of the Caribbean for inclusion in the United States as slave states. As anti-slavery agitation increased after the Dred Scott Decision was issued, the members proposed a separate confederation of slave states, with US states south of the Mason-Dixon line to secede and to align with other slave states to be formed from the golden circle. In either case, the goal was to increase the power of the Southern slave-holding upper class to such a degree that it could never be dislodged. [1] During the American Civil War, some Southern sympathizers in the Northern states such as Ohio, Illinois, Indiana, and Iowa, were accused of belonging to the Knights of the Golden Circle, and in some cases were imprisoned for their activities.
Early history George W. L. Bickley, a Virginia-born doctor, editor, and "adventurer" who lived in Cincinnati, founded the association. Records of the K.G.C. convention held in 1860 state that the organization “originated at Lexington, Kentucky, on the fourth day of July 1854, by five gentlemen who came together on a call made by Gen. George Bickley….”[2] He organized the first castle, or local branch, in Cincinnati in 1854. Hounded by creditors, he left Cincinnati in the late 1850s and traveled through the East and South, promoting an expedition to Mexico. Following the Mexican-American War of 1846, the group's original goal was to provide a force to colonize the northern part of Mexico and the West Indies. This would extend pro-slavery interests.
