The republican party is all crooks from top to bottom

Republican voters may simply have a whole host of other problems that have turned them against this country

I normally try to keep out of here much that could be connected to me personally beyond that I live in Massachusetts.

But I am still so angry with Kid over his bogus claim about my insulting those who gave their lives in Afghanistan that I am going to break my self-guidance here.

Johanny Rosario Pichardo was a student of mine. We hadn't talked since 2019, really, but we'd talked off and on for years following the brief time that we saw each other regularly.

She was doing work she thought was important for the women there - just as work had been done to help her to get places. She believed in giving back to society.

It's upsetting seeing Marines being killed...must be doubly upsetting when you know them personally.

We need to win the hearts and minds of the people of Afghanistan, and if you can change how they think and feel then you can change how they behave.

And for instance, the people of Turkey love the old American silents films, they loved Buster Keaton, and Charlie Chaplin. So, we can show Buster Keaton and Charlie Chaplin to the people of Afghanistan to win their hearts.

Also, we have "Bonanza." We need to show the television show "Bonanza" to the people of Afghanistan.

We also have "Happy Days." We can show "Happy Days" to the people of Afghanistan.

And they can have Elvis music, and Ted Nugent, etc.

Salute,

Tony V.

They love to kill mass numbers of infidels and to subjugate women. Not much hope of change there. Throwing acid in the faces of school girls etc.. Keep them in the Khyber pass and out of the US?

Selective immigration is a county's right...and the only immigration policy there should be.
Trump had the right idea.

1000 pages of essentially leftist intolerance on full display.

Here is some more leftist intolerance...

Have a seat.


Thanks for proving my point.

She knew the risks.

It wasn't like she was drafted and sent over there.

 Maybe you should have tried to steer her career a little differently, and she'd be alive.

I know this has been asked before,  but what is wrong with you?
