http://www.politifact.com/punditfact/statements/2014/dec/02/peter-morici/economist-immigrants-have-taken-all-new-jobs-creat/ Professor Morici is not Left or right wing. article analyzes his position says he's wrong. beats me whose right. The American chamber of commerce loves granting rights to illegal immigrants. Talks only about jobs created, what kinds of jobs were created? Did someone open up a bunch of new fast food joints and the illegals worked there when regular americans didn't want to? I will repeat, until these illegals are taking jobs that aren't menial labour or shitty min wage jobs it's all just an excuse for people not earning as much as they'd like. I think you'd have to back that statement up. How can you say that illegal immigrants are taking jobs American's dont want? How many illegals work for less than minimum wage? If your boss replaced you with an illegal working under the table for half the wage, would you say "hey, ill keep that job" or would you refuse and get accused of not wanting to do it? We're all immigrants. But you cant have let people stream into the country illegally whenever they please. It has to be done within a reasonable balance. Trump is correct about that. Also, Trump is two years older than Hilary and younger than both Bush and Regan when they were president. Age isnt really a factor until you get into the nittygritty and begin talking about the quality of the VP and him being "a heartbeat away". My job requires a certain level of education, no one is going to just come across the border and do my job for half the price. I see that argument about taking jobs from americans the same as I see the TFW issue up here. they're mostly in unskilled work that is difficult to find locals to work in anyway. In North American we have a real sense of entitlement about our jobs. We demand high wages and don't want to take work beneath us. Those are the jobs immigrants, whether legal or illegal are taking. There is nothing wrong with wanting to make people immigrate in legal channels, but there is a problem with phrasing it in a way that makes it sound like they're all worthless criminals.

You would rather a guy who wants to sit on his a$$ and make his dough.Anybody remember Charlie Roberts threatening to quit if he didn't play more?How did that work out?Guy just wants to play I want someone who acts like a professional and keeps his mouth shut and busts his ass in practise and then when the chance to play rolls around you just play so well they can't take you out. Charlie Roberts was an immature little prick and if he wasn't as talented as he was there is no way I would have wanted him on the team.

The difficulty with American politics is that there are checks and balances to prevent one branch of the executive from having too much power. You get a Democrat as president but the Senate is still Republican well there won't be any change because it's at an impasse. In theory it's good that you don't have a dictatorial system of governing, but on the other hand it can make actually doing anything hard. People ***** about majority governments in Canada being able to do whatever they want, but I honestly prefer that system because there's no ambiguity about anything. Government does stupid **** there's no one to hide behind and the voters can toss them out on their asses.

That's sort of the point actually... they think that, and it's part scary and part sad that they actually believe it. Mexicans do the jobs in the states that the average american just won't do because it's beneath them so the whole they took our jobs thing is just crap to begin with. It's exactly the same as people here saying that temporary foreign workers are taking all the jobs. Not true. No one wants to work at Tim Hortons and no contrary to popular belief they won't raise the wages they pay if they didn't have TFWs.

If I were Wade Miller I'd have ordered the salad on the side instead of poutine

Thomas has been a good depth player since his very first season. I don't know that he'll ever be a full time starter, but as far as a depth guy he's exactly what you look for and anyone who didn't see that before clearly hasn't watched.

Trying to stop illegal aliens is one thing, calling them all a bunch of drug lords and rapists is quite another though. Sure he can be obnoxious. And a lot of rhetoric. But why issue do you have with his plan? You don't see a difference between "I want to stop illegal immgration because it's a drain on the system" and "I want to keep this criminal scum out of our country"? That makes all the difference in the world to me. One person is a sensationalistic bigot, the other is simply trying to enact sensible strategies.

It's a piece of **** move to ***** about playing time to force your release. I understand he wants more money but it's still a ***** move.

Ego.....massive egos believing that the whole world is hanging off their every word. The same thing that drives people into radio jobs.

I agree. Mercer gives it both sides, when they deserve it, while those 22 Minutes boneheads are just plain idiots. It's lucky they have the CBC to call home to spread their leftist garbage. I am no Rob Ford fan but that complete psychopath leftist Mary Walsh was just plain awful when she dressed up as that warrior thing and harassed him at his house. I could only imagine the cries of outrage from the loony left if Ezra Levant dressed up in some warrior costume and harassed a nutbar like Linda McQuaig at her home. And yet he probably should, Ezra I mean! lol Although Ezra seems to be trying to keep a less-crazy profile lately. Reading some comments by NDP candidates and its pretty surprising how bigoted and anti-industry they can be. Im sure all the parties have some nutjob candidates but the NDP seem to attract anti-Isreal ones a lot. Perhaps Mulcair should offer to broker peace with ISIS and fly over there for an in-person meeting. What could possibly go wrong? I keep asking the NDP people I know (who are all pro-Hamas and hate Israel) how they are going to deal with the fact that Mulcair is pro-Israel, and all I get is either silence or "wait and see", which to me indicates that Mulcair's pro-Israel stance is just a ruse to try and get elected. I think this is what Mulcair is doing on a lot of fronts: convince us that his party isn't nuts, and then unleash the nuts after the election. After hearing what a dictator he is I can believe that he has all of these loons under an iron grip and won't let them go until post October 19th. Then look out. No the thing the dippers don't understand is that Mulcair is doing what you have to do in order to actually be electable in this country, he's dragging them kicking and screaming towards the centre. Like Harper when you have a party with such a lunatic fringe you have to put the clamps on them hard because here in Canada crap from the fringe of either side doesn't fly with most of the people. Should the NDP actually win there are going to be an awful lot of NDP supporters who are disappointed that Mulcair isn't way out in left field.

if there was a play for guaranteed 5 yards you think that offensive coordinators wouldn't call it all the time? And you think defensive coordinators wouldn't find a way to defend it? Come on, these guys good or bad spend way more time looking at all sorts of film and what not than any fan does. It's always a give and take. offense does something that works, D learns how to take it away. The key is to make better and quicker adjustments than your opponents.

You don't like how they act beat them. It's as simple as that.

He's trying to take it to the house every kick. Watch him he always tries to get outside, when he does get past the first wave he's always slowing down looking for that huge lane. I'd rather see him just catch the ball and run full speed ahead and get whatever you can. To me there's more chance of busting one doing that if your guys get their blocks than looking for the perfect hole.

Yep I doubt he's the only football player to have a relationship fall apart and be distressed about it.

I've been pleased with the improved play of the D. I give Hall a lot of credit for tweaking things and getting things to work better. Too many soft zones for my liking still but progress is progress. I'd also like to personally apologize to Westerman for ragging on him early in the year, dude is playing ******* great football right now.

Marve looked past his first read a ton, I mean about 70% of his completed passes were scrambles. He struggles in the pocket, and that's what your seeing with the wobblers and bad accuracy. He needs to settle his lower body down when he throws in the pocket, on any throw he makes where he's not on the run. He's got a really frantic passing motion but it's entirely from his lower half, he's got a real nice arm action. Accuracy/time it takes to get there sucks because he's taking himself away from his target with the lower body movement when he should be finishing towards the target ideally. We can do without the chuck and duck bomb tosses and throws across his body on the run though. The sandlot stuff is good for a couple of exciting plays a game, but really not going to get anything done consistently. Also looked like Marve had a pretty bad bump/bruise/nick on his throwing hand for a good chunk of the 2nd half. All that said, the difference in the game was again a big special teams breakdown on a horribly placed punt by Hajrullahu. They showed him walking off the field on TV when it happened, he couldn't straighten his index finger out.

The final turnover I don't put too much stock into, that was a desperation play that didn't work because the Argos D started to blow up the Bombers OL in the 2nd half of the game, but the kick return was a huge mistake and the fumble on the next series was the dagger in the heart. This team needs to work on it's mental toughness and ability to rebound from errors.

but it's interesting, when I go back and read the book of his rants from 22 minutes, when the Liberals were entrenched in power, you'd swear that he was right leaning cause he ******* hated the Liberals back then. With him it's all about taking any party to task over things he doesn't like. the current 22 minutes gang are all NDP nuts. I suspect a majority of their writing staff are on Reddit cause they get a lot of material straight from there and Reddit is the most left leaning place out there. It's sickening to read the crap these kiddies actually believe.

I think I've seen better throws in my really rec flag football league...

Who cares how bad the media hurts his feelings. As the leader of the country, he shouldn't be allowed to hide from questions he doesn't want to answer. It's not about hurting feelings, it's about the media twisting the message, so he said "fine, you want to put words in our mouths I'll make it impossible for that to happen and control the message with an iron fist"

Don't let the door hit you on the way out!

the 25 year drought makes Bomber fans especially crazy there is no denying that. I'd say Bomber fans are the most impatient fans in the league. Rider fans are generally overly biased and cling to their support longer than most would but Bomber fans are quick to turn on under performers.
