#1 They could have the UN distribute the cash...

#2 Continuation of the Holocaust by other means. All while Eurocrats sneer at the US about their moral superiority. I could puke.

#3 Don't do that, exJAG -- it's so bad for the teeth, and they do like sneering at our perfect teeth, too.

#4 Nah, I know. They'll get theirs. Allying with genocidal fascists never seems to work out too well for them. I just hope I'm not still here when the roosting chickens of justice come home.

My grandfather immigrated to the US from Czechoslovakia in the 1920s. He was home visiting family with his mother in 1938 when the Czech army tried to draft him. They made a beeline for one of the last ships out, where great-grandma began shouting obscenities at the Nazi officer checking their papers. Grandpa tossed her over his shoulder, grinned sheepishly and said she was crazy, sprinted up the gangplank, and got the hell out -- with great-grandma screaming abuse the whole way. She was nuts, but you gotta love her moxie.

I'm beginning to understand how they must have felt. I'm just not sure if I'll leave as he did, or as she did.

#5 Despite whatever of her negligible shortcomings, bless your great-grandma's soul, exJAG. So few had enough guts to face down the Nazis. So few have enough guts to confront today's new Nazis. Welcome aboard at Rantburg, may you and your kin inspire us all.

#6 Wait just a cotton-pickin' minute -- you're based in Europe? exJAG, dear, you have to mention these little things, so we can properly weigh your comments on such subjects (and so Seafarious knows where to go for her next business trip cum bar-hop). We still await her report on the situation in Barthelona and environs, you know.

#7 Well, it's not like they could have distributed 40 millions euros to the EU's poorest citizens for Xmas, for example... gotta have your priorities set straight.
Speaking of charities, the people organizing the identity "pork soup" for european homeless people were beaten up by the french police when the soup was raided the 21st september, and the Bonnivard couple was arrested. It's because they discriminate, y'know.

To go back at the EU, cf this theory again :

#8 Oh yeah, sorry. I'm in Al-Lemagne. Pretty quiet here, outside of the occasional attempted train bombing, and ubiquitous moskkks and full black chadors.

Speaking of the little things. Seafarious is a chick? Kewl.

#9 I'm beginning to think there's more chicks than guys here at the 'burg. Not that I'm complaining. Nope. Not me. I'm just hoping that's because the guys are all out on missions like OS.

Thanks for your support.

Yeah, but how many she-males? Oh, wait, wrong website, sorry.

#11 Definietly the wrong website, a5089. I don't know that that word means and I don't want to, but Rantburgers are all lovely people, in my experience.

Damn. Couldn't see that coming.
Lemme know how you make out...

I'm all for a female majority, if needed, as long as that doesn't change the pics in the RB Times-Picayune and Scimitar to cater to the them, lol!

#15 Back to the topic: seems to me the whole purpose of Ramadamalinglong is to humble yourself before Mo the Magnificant (ptui), y'know fasting and all. So WTF is the EU doing sending $$ to make it easier to get along day to day? something doesn't add up. But then again, looking at the players, I would be surprised if it did make sense.
Thanks, I'm all done. Back to our regularly scheduled commentary.

#17 I apologize for whatever I said so unfortunately in #6, Frank, although I'm afraid in my ignorance I don't know what it is.

#18 exjag, gotta watch out for the women here on the burg. I think they all had past lives with OGA's. Not only can they bake up a pie but they will put you to task if your not carefull. They are clear, articulate, and when they are on a rant, a great read.

#19 tw, as usual, you don't want to know. One would think you'd'ave learnt that by now.

#21 And thus we prove to all concerned that Rantburg has not been over-feminized. Just don't explain to me how.

#23 This war against Islamofascism--and war is exactly the right term--will not truly be fought by our side until our women both understand and solidly support the men who are fighting it. When there's a "Mary Postgate" mentality among American women, Islamofascism will finally be treated as it deserves to be. Ladies like TW, Swamp Blondie and Seafarious understand this. Let's hope their sisters catch on soon because I don't think we've got a lot more time to waste. The locusts are being very busy.

#24 until our women both understand and solidly support the men AND WOMEN who are fighting it.

There, fixed that for you. ;-)

#25 Burial tomorrow at West Point of a young female Lt. who just graduated last May, killed in Iraq or Afghanistan, I forget which.

Lots of women in this country "get it". Some of them hang here regularly.

#26 lotp: two apologies are in order. First, I'm an old guy so I use the English grammar conventions I was taught long ago, i.e. that "men" covers all persons of either sex when used in the collective sense. Second, that I left you out in mentioning women who understand the seriousness of this war we're fighting. Sorry.
