Who did Obama deport?

Never?

I think this is an important point. Criticism (hopefully polite and respectful) and pointing out errors is how we all learn from each other. While moderator action will usually split a thread for clarity it rarely removes posts and so everyone can still read what has been said. But under owner's permissions the OP can just remove any queries or dissent. It's not healthy.

He had bought a large map representing the sea, Without the least vestige of land: And the crew were much pleased when they found it to be A map they could all understand.

Ah, so cool and rational as ever.

Thank you for the instructions. Any chance you just tell us the answers?

he would have beaten Trump easily if such a thing were possible. Trumps win was an anti-Clinton effect. She is very unpopular. Sanders would have beaten Trump also.

He won two terms with a big majority. he's not responsible for Clinton - in fact he beat her in the nomination race.

Yes George W. was an international embarrassment who could hardly string a complete sentence together, while Obama comes across as urbane, intelligent and a decent human being. If he failed in office it is because he was continually obstructed in most policy areas. He was subject to a continuous stream of abuse and hatred - which is abnormal for a US President where previously 'respect the office if not the person' held sway. Why this has changed ... well maybe the USA loss of confidence in itself has something to do with it. I realise this is a view from the other side of the Atlantic - so rather like Thatcher it is possible to be well respected abroad but hated at home.

Thanks for the download. I would be interested to know from Effilang why he felt it necessary to remove a dissenting voice from his threads.

OMG! Just woke up and look what's happened!!!!

A thought for tomorrow:

Just for information - in case anyone is interested in facts:

I know this is a life sentence but why can't I sign out and in again? I signed in anonymous one time but I want to be visible (of course).

Did you read the link? Parliament is sovereign and not 'the people' - this has always been so. PS. I got an A grade in 'O' Level British Constitution - thank you and good night sir.

The referendum was advisory. Whatever is done must comply with British Law. This was British judges interpreting British law as it applies to Britain. No Brexiteer can object to that.

http://www.parliament.uk/about/how/sovereignty/ Parliament, not the Government is sovereign in Britain. Therefore the Government cannot act, even after consulting the people through referendum, without the approval of Parliament. The UK is a Parliamentary democracy not a plebiscite. I would have thought that a General Election with concrete proposals for Brexit should take place at some juncture.

Parliament is sovereign ... which is one of the campaign points of the Leave group. So the High Court has simply affirmed this fact. A Government is accountable to a sovereign Parliament and cannot bypass their responsibility by an appeal to the electorate through referendum. Whether the Supreme Court will uphold this I don't know - but they should.

Mary Whitehouse, is that you?

I've heard it called the evil of two lessers.

Kants!

Before you ask I found this through the comments page in The Guardian:

Made me laugh ... ... think about people who say things you don't like on DaoBums and apply ...

his anger issues ha ha - her face was a picture.
