    Even if true, it sounds to me more like they want to go home to a United States that is a nation of laws and get away from this foreign country Obama is trying to create that doesn't live by the constitution, but is being run by executive fiat.

    I've heard it from both sides and it depends on who is in office. MAy have started back when George W. Bush was elected. Now every election cycle, the party who is losing has folks threatening to leave the country.

    Didn't Rush Limbaugh threaten to move to Costa Rica if Obamacare passed?
    Peter Morrison of the Hardin County , Texas Republican Party wanted Texas to leave the US because Obama won. If anyone was paying attention to Twitter and Facebook on the last election night, Republicans were threatening left and right to leave the country if Obama won.

    More divisive political mumbo jumbo. Same thing goes on in both parties and yall know it. Call the church to repentance and focus on God's Great Commission instead of buying into the devil's divisive distractions.

    Go back and look for yourself. Republicans with many names made the claim. I'm sure you understand how to use Google to look up such things.:thumbs:

    Don't have to. Yall the silly ones who seem to think the Republicans are beyond doing the same things that the Democrats do.

    Idolatry does seem to cause folks to set the truth aside.

    Typical political idolator. Forever duped into thinking that they are better than the other side.

    There may actually be some, but it appears he's too lazy to dig them up.

    His political posts are full of false bravado laced with false piety. Quite a combination when ya stop to think about it.:thumbs:

    "Didn't Rush Limbaugh threaten to move to Costa Rica if Obamacare passed?"

    Who thinks Rush really meant this. Can you spell

    F-A-C-E-T-I-O-U-S


    IMHO - if you make a statement - YOU should be the one to back it up.
    but then again, who am I to know what is right?

    That sounds about par for a Minnesotan. :)

    My pick would be Canada.

    I was 'caned' enough as a kid.

    My pick would be Switzerland.

    But FTR, I love my country, I never intend to leave it, and that means Kentucky.

    I love it when liberals quote Limbaugh.

    So often he uses sarcasm to make a point that, when taken out of context, sounds like he either supports or defends something he doesn't.

    It's the laziest form of hypocrisy.

    Speaking of Canada, the American liberal's idea of utopia. After Bush was re-elected in 2004, there was a 600% increase in immigration inquiries from American citizens.

    No such spike occurred when our wannabe dictator, Obama, was re-elected.

    Canada evidently is not a conservatives idea of utopia.

    ITL, don't feel the need to prove to anyone what they already know but are too proud to admit.

    They need some place other than Jesus in which to place their allegiance. If you take away the facade of their political parties and partisan politics, it might leave them no where to go with their anger and gripes but to Jesus.

    Imagine that. Depending on Jesus as the answer to what ails the nation instead of men in political parties.

    And I abhor when folks have been proven wrong how they look to excuse away the evidence. It's the most typical form of hypocrisy out of folks on this board.
