Jews Are Cursed, By Hamas
WHAT Hamas thinks:
I asked him if he believed, as some Hamas theologians do (and certainly as many Hezbollah leaders do) that Jews are the “sons of pigs and apes.” He gave me an interesting answer that reflects a myopic reading of the Koran. “Allah changed disobedient Jews into apes and pigs, it is true, but he specifically said these apes and pigs did not have the ability to reproduce. So it is not literally true that Jews today are descended from pigs and apes, but it is true that some of the ancestors of Jews were transformed into pigs and apes, and it is true that Allah continually makes the Jews pay for their crimes in many different ways. They are a cursed people.”
Hamas are apist, and monkeyist…
There Once Was A Gub’nor Named Roddy Blago
Rod Blagojevich - a ditty:
In Illini’s fair city,
Where pols are so pretty,
There once was a gub’nor named Roddy Blago.
He strolled halls of power,
And charged by the hour,
Crying, “Cough up the moolah!
To D.C. you’ll go!”
It’s democracy, stoopid!
When The USA Breaks Up
THE USA will not be around for ever:
Among the most unthinkable scenarios for most Americans is the unthinkable idea that the United States could become the disunited or turn into divided states. Even though this union accumulated very slowly in the first place, and against all odds — in other words it was not inevitable — the fact that the USA will not always be as united, or at least united in the way it is now, is considered, well… unthinkable.
But as Juan Enriquez notes in his amazing PopTech talk, based on his book “The Untied States of America: Polarization, Fracturing, and Our Future”, no US president has ever died under the same flag that he was born under. That is, the borders of the United States has constantly shifted even in modern times. The last state was added in 1959 (after I was born!) and more could be added still. Americans are comfortable ADDING states, but it might not take much to subtract one. The outcome of the US Civil War has biased Americans to disbelieving in subtraction, but that might change.
Will it mean that George Bush can be President again?
