[MidwestD]

He's certainly the odd duck of the Republican party...

 

[Truth200]

They might as well just start calling every poor person on Earth a terrorist.

It's the biggest welfare country in the world.

 

[A Real Human Bean]

It's worth noting that giving aid to Israel is actually illegal according to U.S. law

no security assistance may be provided to any country the government of which engages in a consistent pattern of gross violations of internationally recognized human rights.

 

[superunknown23]

It's the biggest welfare state in the US.

I was just saying in another thread that i notice names like O'rouke & Moran as being Irish.

The IRA & PLO are very tight and they both have suffered similar oppression from powerful regimes.

Alot of people don't know but Gaddafi was once a major supporter of the IRA.



We once had Black & Irish leaders in America like MLK & JFK but they both got gunned down for obvious reasons.

Now we have a Black president and Irish Vice president who don't have the courage to serve their own people.

I feel bad for Americans who think the US is in a recession or depression because it's simply not true.

America has so much extra tax payer money to give away it's not even funny, case in point this thread.

He also called the Arab League out for not giving a shyt about the Palestinians

the united states has the best system of government. Unfortunately there wasn't enough checks against corruption and the whole corporations have the rights of people derailed it.

 

[Truth200]

Or you know... our debt.

News flash, nobody really cares about the debt because if they did billions would not go to Israel.
