These guy's are just lap dogs for Lenin/Che and nothing more. One is an exploiter of unfortunates akin to slavery, another a "rambone", and at last a closet racist cloaked behind "women's rights" for gosh sakes! Regardless of what one say's that person will be chastised with some type of phobia. Actually "they" remind me of the patients that I saw in the locked ward of the hospital proclaiming their sanity! There is not much difference with what I have experienced except the one's in the hospital could be helped and subsequently released. "Ours" will continue their delusions as this is the only comfort they have to sustain self. Their anguish will only deepen when President Trump is re-elected to a 2nd term of office. More and more conservative judges are being confirmed at the federal level and perhaps more Supreme Court Associate Judges. So far two on his watch, pretty good for the Republic. Best of all there is nothing, nada, zip our Nazi's can do about it but cry in their beer, as if one need a reason for a beer. Let them have their ramblings, it just continues to gnaw at their insides.

"Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one's lifetime.

Togor, I'd vote for her in a heartbeat! Any beautiful woman like her that can walk on the Moon without a space suit why I bet she could bring peace to the Middle East!Comment

The 6 months I spent traveling through 3 different Muslim countries wasn't fatal to MY prejudice & bigotry, they INSPIRED it! If I'd harbored any particular "prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness" about those places & people, I'd sure as hell never have gone there in the first place.Comment

You guys know Ivanka is a Democrat, right? Quite possibly the worst kind--a Davos-going limo liberal.
CH: the reason most don't cop to prejudice and bigotry is that it exposes them to be creatures with base motives only, with no claim a civilized temperament. Putting such people in charge invariably leads to people being at each other's throats. The lesson is endlessly learned and forgotten.Comment

...and that, my friend, will eat you up and rob you of quality of life. No one is saying to be BFFs with whatever is out to kill you, but hate itself is a waste of one's life if left to consume it.

That's what happens when you are in a war. Joining the military is a volunteer act."The first gun that was fired at Fort Sumter sounded the death-knell of slavery. They who fired it were the greatest practical abolitionists this nation has produced." ~BG D. UllmanComment

I used to live in Egypt -- from '52 to '54. I knew and respected a great many Muslims. Don't mistake these fanatics for the general Muslim population.
Read The True Believer, by Eric Hoffer. His theme is that the cause or religion doesn't create the fanatic. The fanatic comes looking for a cause or religion to justify his fanaticism.Comment

Times and the rot of society has changed so much since then though. We used to be on friendly terms with every country. Now we can hardly trust any of them even though we are financially supporting them. Though there are still some "good" muslims left in this world their ways do not mix with ours.
Back then even most democrats were good people.Comment
