    Ubiq -“also note: as usual you havent actually answered my question here it is again: “how does saying the words Islamic and Terrorism together help?”

    I answered this already – here it is again:

    “It’s not saying them together, it’s showing the terrorists that we’ll do anything to prevent your ideology!”

    “Why do you think ISIS is based in Iraq?”

    “Well mostly becasue they are. But ok, i’ll bite where are they based. LEt me guess on the grassy knoll or maybe in imaginary supreme court”

    “I’ll post the answer below.”

    “answer to what?”

    This -“Why do you think ISIS is based in Iraq?”

    Here it is again:

    From the news yesterday:

    “Former President George W. Bush has told Fox News’ Sean Hannity that he was “frustrated” when the U.S. pulled troops out of Iraq in 2011, clearing the way for ISIS to be formed from the remains of Al Qaeda in Iraq.”

    “Um yeah we have been safer under Obama than Bush.”

    “That’s because…”

    what? we were safer under Obama because Bill Clinotn dint think Islam terror was a threat. Does that make sense to you? becasue that is what you wrote.

    thr bottom line is we were safer under Obaam than Bush so your critiscm of “failled liberal polcies” doesnt hold much water”

    Oh, of course it does, but you’re trying very hard to disillusion everyone!

    My point was – it wasn’t Bush’s fault, that we safer under Obama than him! It was the fault of his predecessor – Billy Boy!

    But keep dreaming that the libs will protect us from our enemies!

    “You need ground troops!”

    “Yes but we still need allies in the region where basis are eg Kuwait, Saudi Arabia”

    We don’t need those allies!

    Iraq would have begged us to help them to defend themselves against ISIS.

    Your Idol Obama & the DemonCrats keep trying to push that lie on the American people!

    “Lol, look at a map ISIS is based in IRaq, what look whose airspace is needed, look where US bases are.”

    Why do you think ISIS is based in Iraq?

    I’ll post the answer below.

    “Um yeah we have been safer under Obama than Bush.”

    That’s because the DemonCrats, like Bill Clinton, didn’t ever think that Islam Terror was a threat to the US!

    You meant well, but the way a medical professional looks at the situation – is not what it probably is, but to look at all probabilities. And to determine that – you must do a x-ray!

    I don’t know if all orthopedic surgeons are created equal, but I would prefer to see a podiatrist!

    “When you give the details that you banged your toe, it sounds to me like you have what they call in Hebrew a “shetef dam”. What I think that means is that you have some internal bleeding (bruise) going on there. The bang you gave to your toe broke some small blood vessels and they bled, creating the purple color and the swelling. I would say that if your toe is very painful (like you can’t walk on it or sleep at night) or crooked, then I would go to Terem and have them take an x-ray (they would figure out from your story that it was not an infection or ingrown toe nail but possibly a fracture). If it is neither extremely painful nor crooked, then I would wear some comfortable shoes, keep your foot elevated when you can and take an anti-inflammatory, like Advil or Neurofen to help reduce the swelling and pain. If you do this for two or three days and the pain gets worse or does not improve, then I would go to Terem and have them take an x-ray.”

    Reviewed by Columbia University – College of Dental Medicine

    “There are two types of extractions:

    A simple extraction is performed on a tooth that can be seen in the mouth. General dentists commonly do simple extractions. In a simple extraction, the dentist loosens the tooth with an instrument called an elevator. Then the dentist uses an instrument called a forceps to remove the tooth.

    A surgical extraction is a more complex procedure. It is used if a tooth may have broken off at the gum line or has not come into the mouth yet. Surgical extractions commonly are done by oral surgeons. However, they are also done by general dentists. The doctor makes a small incision (cut) into your gum. Sometimes it’s necessary to remove some of the bone around the tooth or to cut the tooth in half in order to extract it.”

    Yidd23 -“The current American government, like the previous one, was founded by illegal immigrants.”

    What are you talking about?

    The current administration is run by Americans, not like the last administration which was run by a Kenyan!

    It’s not a right for anybody to come here.
