His stupidity is well known, especially among his Democrat "buddies". He is quite brilliant (you do not become a Nuke Sub Driver if you are not), but he has a really severe case of political diarrhea.

Learn something new everyday. I had no idea he was a submariner.

Don't think I've ever seen any Israeli goods except maybe in pictures and an occasional Israeli immigrant. Had one living across the alley from us in Penticton. Nice people and she was a damned good baker.
Anyway, Jimmy's wishing in the wind, I think.

I have one of their inventions in my heart.

I didn't know the Israelis invented love.

I was mistaken- I had the impression, wrongly that the heart stent was invented n Israel.

Of course they won't, because, if yousay anything negative about "Israel", "Israelis", or "Jews" you're a bigot.

And if you do make your dislike open for some - then you are a bigot. Jimmy fits the bill.

That seems a bit on the negative side. Bigot!

it wasn't

and even if it was, Carter is talking about goods manufactured in the West Bank in the illegal Israeli enclaves(settlements).

And if you do make your dislike open for some - then you are a bigot. Jimmy fits the bill.

Nope, try again.

My, my. However do you endure such oppression?

I already corrected myself on the stent. So sad but you are late.

I figure if my mother/grandmother/greatmother/greatgrandfather...etc...etc,.....etc..... managed it, I can.....


Now fu ck off, you're not the only one in here with Native ancestry.

The "nope, try again" comment was in regard to the quoted statement by you that Carter was a bigot. NOT about the stent. Do try and follow along.

yeah I've noticed that support for Palestinians on this particular site is viewed as equal to being anti-Jew. Wonder how my uncle now dead and quite Jewish would view that. That's okay wrong is wrong whether they are Jews or Palestinians, and right is right and oppressed is oppressed. I hope I personally never lose sight of that.

My, my. However do you endure such oppression?

tolerantly.

Poor soul. It seems the strain was more than he could bear.

.

Personally, I do not look at the ME problem as a "Jew vs. Palestine" problem. I view it as Israel vs. Palestine, or Israel vs. Syria, or Iran, etc. IMNSHO, the true bigots are those that MAKE it a "Jew" vs others no matter which side they support.

Just tired of your whining.

Then why post it?
