This quote stood out to me, as this contradiction is the most glaring of all, IMO. I will never, ever understand how those who call themselves "feminists" can defend Middle Eastern Muslims, particularly men. It's absurd to say, "Oh, well not ALL of them feel/act this way." This is Middle Eastern culture. Women are hardly treated better than dogs. How can someone who identifies as a feminist defend these men and their abhorrent practices? I'll be waiting for an honest answer, but I'm not holding my breath. Well, you see a reasonable reading of the Qu'ran does not oppress women--but an inflamed radical reading of it definitely oppresses women. Just like the Bible. So, feminists are embracing the more reasonable reading of the Qu'ran, just like the bible see? Feminists follow the Episcopalian version of Islam. Conservative, but more forgiving and humanistic. Muhammad as Charleton Heston more or less. |
Trust me...I know. Why do you think Republicans are in-fighting. Back to the topic of memorializing Obama making America look bad while Democrats walk around sprinkling fairy dust around claiming an amazing legacy with extreme efficiency. Let's do the top 50 accomplishments! In a Memorial Day Weekend mini-series! I'm sleepy so I'll start with part one tomorrow! Xoxoxo!!! |
That's true, national dept is huge and it's disturbing. Obama was burning through Chinese money like it was his own....I mean American taxpayers. But I have a funny feeling that China will not see a rat tail of it to be paid back...... Just a thought about who is smart. |
Oh, yeh? And why are you suddenly don't like Asian folks to immigrate to America? They don't kill people in night clubs, their kids don't piss in little girls' mouths, they don't chop up pips with machetes, don't need gov assistance - is that why, liberal racist? |
That's what happens when you irresponsibly spend trillions on wars we don't need, give the rich a trillion dollar tax cut, give big pharma a trillion more... not to mention giving too-big-to-fail banks piles of money too, because some Republican idiot thought deregulating would be great - you end up in hock and having to borrow money. Thanks G. W. Bush, thanks GOP. This was your doing. |
really? You don't remember the VA Tech killer - the one whose family lived in Centreville? |
You spelled Bill Clinton wrong. |
THIS. |

Muhammad as Charleton Heston more or less. The Christian Bible does allow for slavery - check Leviticus. However, all Christian nations have progressed enough to ban slavery. The Koran does allow for mistreatment of women. The fact that many Muslim nations have not progressed enough to ban mistreatment of women is not an indictment of Islam (after all, Christianity also allowed for bad things), but rather it's an indictment of societies that refuse to modernize. |

LMAO! Bill Clinton didn't get us into Iraq and Afghanistan. Bill Clinton didn't give the rich a trillion dollar tax break. Bill Clinton didn't give big pharma a trillion dolllar giveaway. That was all on George W. Bush. |
Ridiculous liberal goals? SERIOUSLY? Dude, whatever it is that you're smoking, it's rotting your brain. "Ridiculous liberal goals" is why we have better air quality (unlike China where a million plus people are dying prematurely each year because of their horrifically bad air quality) better water quality (ever seen how much trash, oil, et cetera is floating in the rivers around Chinese cities?) better and safer working conditions (unlike Chinese slave wages, people locked in factories, losing limbs, et cetera), food that's less likely to poison you (unlike melamine-tainted baby formula in China), safer consumer products, less fraud, less counterfeiting, et cetera et cetera et cetera. And it's not "misplaced priorities" either. Jobs, economy, national security DIDN'T GO AWAY for liberals. All of that "ridiculous liberal virtues" stuff was done IN ADDITION TO all of those core things, not IN PLACE of them. Did you know that the solar power industry is one of the fastest growing job creators in the entire United States? |
LOL, google "Bernie Sanders Venezuela Socialism" |
The fact that you would tie the growth of Chinese-held debt to actions or inaction of G.W. indicates you have no understanding of why the debt grew under him. Good luck on your mini series. I tentatively give it a 1 out of 10. |
