Ireland is reaping the benefits of how well it is currently treating its Protestants, along with its other religious minorities. Israel could learn something from Ireland on this score.

It took a whole lot of dumb from the right, but Manchin has come home.

If his version passes, the fragile candle of Democracy may continue to warm and enrich our lives for a few years more.

You probably don't have to go back that far to play "the one man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter" song.

freedom fighter:
: a person who takes part in a resistance movement against an oppressive political or social establishment
terrorist
person who uses unlawful violence and intimidation, especially against civilians, in the pursuit of political aims.


The terms are not interchangeable.
Nelson Mandela can never be equated to Osama Bin Laden.

The King of Spain serves as the president of the Organization of Ibero-American States, purportedly representing over 700,000,000 people in twenty-four member nations worldwide.

King Philip of Spain needs to be on our team.

President George W. Bush was close with King Juan Carlos, and now Biden needs to be close with his son, King Philip. 

Biden has met the Queen of England, now he needs to meet with the King of Spain.

Bush also traveled to Peru, Colombia, Mexico, and to other Latin American nations.

Biden needs to do the same thing.

Here is a nice contact list if you wish to write to the Latin leaders...

I would also add the Philippines to the list.

Salute,

Poor Ilhan

 She has spoken about school bullying she endured during her time in Virginia, stimulated by her distinctive Somali appearance and wearing of the hijab. She recalls gum being pressed into her hijab, being pushed down stairs, and physical taunts while she was changing for gym class
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ilhan_Omar

No wonder she has a chip on her shoulder and says slanderous outrageous things about infidel Americans and Israelis. Oh no, gum in her hijab. No respect at all for big Mo!  In Somalia we cut off your hand and sew up your lips, it is so written.

it is so written you’re a fucking Islamaphobe. Not a good look, luee.

He could be, but your love of Omar and your willingness to excuse her makes you anti-American.

Kick rocks, Jocko.

Have a banana, Idi.

Nothing cuts deeper than a snappy comeback... <snicker> pathetic and predictable.

He has to defeat alabastard republican pseudo religious white nationalist terrorism and insurrection here at home first and foremost. After that, what you suggest would be worthwhile to pursue.

Ireland is reaping the benefits of how well it is currently treating its Protestants, along with its other religious minorities. Israel could learn something from Ireland on this score.

More likely, Hamas and the Palestinians could learn from the IRA and Sinn Fein having changed their actions, having taken the criticism regarding killing innocent people for political reasons and learned to reject that strategy in exchange for more effective political means for change.

First round of Biden-Putin talks ends early.


Joe had to tinkle.

Pees in our times.

Urine trouble if you poke fun at a head of pro-State.

Bibi and Trump may end up in penile institutions.

I guess you know about those deep cuts since you've been a victim of so many snappy comebacks from posters here.

Without going into particulars, or the deliberate targeting of civilians, it may depend who gets the last edit of the history book.

Why don't you attack his statement instead of him, fac? Is Nelson Mandela equated with Osama Bin Laden?

Campbell's soup was only soup until Andy Warhol elevated it to art.

Was Nelson Mandela elevated to freedom fighter, or was he a terrorist?

Never? Someone did. Why do you think they put him in prison?

Those who read and reason recognized right away the structural mirroring of one being a terrorist & a freedom fighter at the same time with the further possibility one could be decidedly more of one than the other while still being a bit of both and Red’s being both an asshole and a nitwit who, unlike you, is more asshole than nitwit.

Don’t feel victimized by that last comment, Hamfisted. I’m not saying you aren’t an epic incredible intercontinental incontinent asshole. It’s just your degree of dunderheaded dumbass nitwithood keeps your asshole exceptionalism in the shade.

Read twice. Write once. Then erase without posting. We’ll all think better of you for it.
