Normally, immigrants from Central America into Mexico are arrested and incarcerated/returned. I suspect Mexican authorities are transporting the Central Americans the three thousand miles to the US border. I don't see how 5-10 year olds could make that journey without assistance.

If I was the president a phone call would already have been made to mexico threatening US aid if they didnt stop the bullshit.

However, Obama wants it this way so.......

And if he doesnt, why hasnt he made any public statement about the crisis?? Oh yeah, he is too busy fundraising and negotiating with Iran over the status of Iraq...

Blah, blah, blah. You failed to prove Cheney held stock when he took office. Pretending stock options are stock is you trying to weasel out of your bet. Ignoring the fact that he donated the proceeds of the sale of his OPTIONS {not stocks) to charity is just more dishonesty. Nothing else matters. You lost your bet and then refuse to honor it. You have no honor and are a liar. Any cause you support is stained by your character.

Cheney sneaky evil ass still had stock options after he became VP. He had the fools, idiots, and just plain dumb folks believing that he had got rid of ALL his stocks. Only the fools fell for it, because he then exercised his stock option to buy more stock, so he did have stocks as VP. He did not sell his options dumb ass. He exercised his options as a call option. Then sold back. You sure are dumb.

I have a question. If you can answer this then I guess it will show us both the truth. No need for a long winded speech about anything ...just answer this one question.
If Cheney sold ALL his stocks in Halliburton and did not have ANY stocks in Halliburton when he was the VP of the United States. How did he make 6.9 million off of Halliburton stock in 2005 ?

Some pretty blonds think its cute to be dumb...Are you blond and pretty

Red, Cheney is a war profiteer. Plain and simple.

Aside from anything else, he is a war profiteer at the very least.

Wonder how long it will take Arizona to do the very same thing? God knows we have enough unemployed people in this country that at least some of them would be happy to man the border.

ohh come on red, dont be that guy.

cheney still had a demonstrable, and vested interest in halliburton during his VP years, and this creates at least the appearance of impropriety.

endless finestoning of the issue, wheedling and torturing the language to defend a position that is only true in the narrowest, most wonkish and technical way, but doesnt alter the facts of the argument is Bucky's style.

you dont wanna go out like that do ya?

plus bucky may start charging you royalties for using his "Intellectual Property"

yes, but again how many died for Gore to make his money vs Cheney to make his. Cheney lied to go to war, making dough off the war. But I do give him balls for shooting his friend and then making the friend say it was his fault..Fucking gangster move !!!!

she started off saying one thing only to tell us she was lying, now she is saying another thing only to let us find out on our own that she's lying.

i find it completely hilarious when people say "no, i was lying, the truth is..."

i just respond by wondering which set of lies i am supposed to believe.

The bet was "did Cheney own any stock when he took office" He didn't. London lost the bet and refused to honor his wager. Quit trying to excuse the dishonorable liar..

I don't know and don't care. He didn't own any stock when he took office. Options are not stock. What he bought or sold AFTER (and donated to charity) wasn't part of the bet. I'm tired of you trying to lie your way out of honoring your bet. You are a dishonorable liar. A man who won't honor his bets will narc out his friends to save his own ass.

Doesn't make any difference what the "appearance" was. We didn't bet on appearances. The bet was specific. Shitfog wants to try to change the bet after the fact and claim he won the bet. I would have honored the bet if I had lost. He should honor the bet he lost. You know damn well he would have demanded that I honor it if I lost. In fact, he tried to lie his way out and DID demand I leave. Is this the kind of person you want to defend? Someone who will stab you in the back to save his own ass?

that was not your original claim.

your original claim was that he sold all of his stock before taking office.

watch now how you try to proclaim you won the bet AFTER changing the claim.

actually, whether or not cheney sold ALL of his stock BEFORE taking office was the entire bet, you lying loser.

and you lost, because cheney made $6.9 million in 2005 by selling halliburton stock.

dumbass.

Red I hope you are not old enough to vote. You are a very uninformed person. you are actually capable of going into a voting booth thinking Cheney never made money off the war...or should we say " not that you know of".
I see you never answered my question about how Cheney made 6.9 million in Halliburton stock in 2005. Remember he never owned any stock as VP...as you say:roll:
Don't worry I was made to realize that this is the only place that you have some type of friendships. I will not force you to be a man about our bet.

for the record we do have some people on here who do honor bets...Good job guys!!!:cool:
