I see that FaceBook is going to move its severs right next door to the new NSA headquarters and will connect through hardwire connection and no need for internet access.

By sheer tonnage of bombs, I'd say you could make a reasonable case that the West and Christianity are intent on the death of Islam.

You could argue that the West is no longer Christian. It hasn't been so in at least a generation. That corresponds exactly to its economic decline and its fragmenting, moribund culture.

The superficial, empty principles of multiculturalism with its foundations of moral relativism, radical individualism, secular humanism in fact makes it supremely vulnerable to more confident, vibrant, cohesive and aggressive faith cultures.. like Islam.

It's probably more Christian than the Middle East.

Which is weird, considering that those Western countries who have most comprehensively turned their backs on letting religion dictate policy are the ones doing best. Ireland. Germany. And funny how ever-increasing GDPs are "decline" in your mind.

Yes, we know you hate non-whites and women. . . like Islam.

Isn't Roseanne blaming Ambien for her behavior a bit like O.J. hilariously blaming Fay Resnick for the murders of his ex and Goldman?

Roseanne’s tweet was 'funny': Florida Republican leader

LEESBURG, Fla. — A Republican leader in Florida has said he doesn’t understand the anger generated by Roseanne Barr’s tweet comparing a former adviser to President Barack Obama to an ape.
Lake County Republican Committeeman Ralph Smith posted an image of Valerie Jarrett and a character from “Planet of the Apes” on Facebook with the caption, “And the issue with Roseanne is?”
Barr’s tweet likening Jarrett to a cross between the Muslim Brotherhood and a “Planet of the Apes” actor sparked nationwide criticism and prompted ABC to cancel its reboot of the comedy show “Roseanne.”
The Daily Commercial in Leesburg, Florida, published a story Wednesday quoting Smith as saying that he thought the comparison was “funny.”
No one answered the phone at Smith’s home and business Thursday. The chairman of the Lake County Republicans didn’t respond to email and phone messages.
Smith deleted his post Wednesday. On a radio show he hosts, he said he doesn’t care about a person’s colour, only their values.
Separately, a Republican campaign operative in Georgia was criticized for tweeting a photo of Jarrett with the caption, “FYI, this is the ’African-American’ that @therealroseanne offended. Questions?”
Weathers told The Associated Press his tweet was meant to imply he believed Barr’s claim that she didn’t know Jarrett was black.
Weathers headed Trump’s state campaign in Georgia for a short time and he most recently managed the campaign of state Sen. Michael Williams in his failed run to be the GOP nominee for governor.

Don't believe the 'GDP's'. They are rigged to give and false sense of economic vibrancy to activity that involves futile 'churning' of financial instruments and low intensity retailing. The physical productive economy in the West has been in decline for decades as are incomes and prosperity. The the only 'winners' are an ever diminishing class of traders and financiers.

And in Ireland, turning its back on its founding faith by allowing mothers to murder their children with impunity will have the most corrosive and unexpected social effects we see now manifesting themselves in the rest of the West. The West has in any constitutional sense has uprooted itself from the bedrock of Christianity and set its foundations on the shifting sands of atheistic humanism.

Ireland was Celtic in faith before Christianity went in there and slaughtered the Druids (the snakes that Patrick drove out of Ireland). Unfortunately, they also destroyed all traces of their religion and replaced them with Christian fairy tales.

Of course. The only reliable indicator is your unsupported assertions, right?

You mean they'll lose the wonderful gifts of slavery, human trafficking, and murder? Oh dear.

Guess they'll just have to settle for prosperity and good cuisine.
