I don't know if you happen to know, (if it's a true fact that is) a turkish minister made a filthy comment about christianity.
This is the first I have heard about the Turkish minister's comment. Come on Barrack, let's have your condemnation, adding that the future has no place for those who slander Christianity. Not much future for Richard Dawkins and the EU then.
I am genuinely sorry that Hillary is ill. Why did she fall, had she been drinking or is that forbidden now that she is another closet muslim? Hear she is thinking of stepping down shortly. Will her successor be even more pro the Muslim Brotherhood?
Sorry she has a blood clot. I suppose that is just one more clot in the field of international socialism and the one world, possibly muslim, totalitarian Marxist superstate. Has anybody got a supply of clot-busting drugs?
Not sure if Americans use the term clot to mean an idiot, do they?
H. Clinton is a spent force, it is
well known that she takes in more
cocaine than food. The Great White
Hope gives way to the great white
powder.
