They were defeated in Germany yesterday too, by a huge margin. Maybe there won't be anymore arrests of peaceful Christians speaking ill of child murdering islamics. But, I won't hold my breath.

Helene,
are you on drugs? your last presidential election ensured that the facists are now in power.
or are you refusing to belive what your own eyes actually see?

You conveniently don't know what "fascist" means. But, you leftists aren't known for being very intelligent.

They keep trying to redefine terms and history to fit their agenda.

No. We use Nazi as a descriptive, it's about par with "stupid" and "ugly". I thought the blocking was due to European standards (all the people who refuse to believe in the Holocaust).

What the hell is all the censorship about? There's nothing intrinsically wrong with with Nazi or slave used to describe people in history.

I'm about over the *'s that are censoring comments on this site. Can't talk about Nazis when they're being killed. In fact even 'killed' is censored, and I think children were "Muldered" and "Kissed"....
Izi, we're big kids, we can handle the truth!

#19 Why does the US look at things which were 100 years behind the rest of the world as racial equality achievements?

#14 Some of the performers whom you young 'uns nowadays would consider to be the dorkiest people on the planet were staunch advocates for equality: Bing Crosby, Ed Sullivan, many Big Band bandleaders, et al. Now it would be hard to imagine the risks they took; but at that time, they risked losing not just their careers, but their lives. Think about that next time you're laughing at the corny old-timers. They had more b@lls than you.

#8 Working 12 hour days, 365 days a year she would have had to plant 456 trees per day. 38 trees per hour. Or more than one tree every every 2 minutes. Have to think that 2 million is a bit of an exaggeration.
