You have to demonize people before murdering them becomes “acceptable.”
]]>How ya gonna murder, oppress & enslave “teh brown people” (as Dumbya describes them) when you see them as REAL LIVE HUMAN BEINGS??!??!?!
Tsk, tsk, tsk, that would NEVER work in the Halliburton Plan For A New World Order.
]]>I left my shoes outside of Japanese homes and various shrines to multiple religions. I’ve worn a lot of things I wouldn’t normally wear to attend many different events.
Is wearing a suit and tie to a funeral oppression? Is wearing green on St. Patrick’s Day oppression? Is a policy of “No Shirt, No Shoes, No Service” oppression?
Some people need to spend some time meeting other people and enjoying other cultures.
]]>I have friends from India who are American citizens. When I enter their temples or their homes, I remove my shoes: it is simple respect to observe their customs; they’re not asking me to engage in their religious practices.
If anyone were to insist that Pelosi wear a hijab full-time in her daily life in America, against her will, I’d have a problem with that… but no one is insisting that. If anyone insists she not wear a scarf as a gesture of simple respect in another society, I have a problem with that, too.
Which religious zealots are more offensive? Short answer: all of ’em. Every religion seems to produce some true believers who take it upon themselves to enforce their practices on everyone else. When those believers gain control of a society… here as surely as in another country… they can be dangerous.

Molly, Ann, and Barbara were the three great ladies of Texas. Anyone of them would have made a hell of a President.
]]>HA!
She shows respect for foreign nations, she tries to use DIPLOMACY to keep the planet from exploding, and she’s EEEEEEVILLLLLLL, she’s a TRAAAAAITOR. As I’ve said before, she’s no Barbara Boxer (nor Molly Ivins nor Ann Richards nor Barbara Jordan, etc.), but I’d prolly vote for Nancy for prez waaaayyyy before I’d vote for Hillary. Nancy’s still a little too prissy for my taste, but not nearly as cutthroat as Hil.
