Need a Hand?

Once I retire and move to Bucks County, none of this bullshit will mean one iota to me anymore.
No they don’t rob. Neither did the Iman and his group. On the other hand, how sacred is the ground where men can get lap dances? If it’s sacred, treat it that way. Frankly- That particular block is not sacred.
Someone please call/email or text me when the Mosque / Islam discussion is over and I’ll log back on.
I am so sick of hearing/talking/reading/seeing about it….and not just here.
He’s right, m4l….

“You’re not going to grant the award to New Jersey because of a mistake, a clerical mistake, on one piece of paper?” fumed Christie.
“This is the stuff that makes people go nuts. This is the reason why people want to throw everybody the hell out of Congress. This is why people are angry at the president of the United States. Does anybody in Washington, DC, have a lick of common sense? Pick up the phone and ask us for the number.”
Christie also questioned why New Jersey didn’t get credit for correcting the error two weeks ago.
“Are you guys just down there checking boxes like mindless drones, or are you thinking?” he asked.
So much is wrong with the ridiculous bloated beauracracy that calls itself “government” at evry level, federal, state and city.
“Why don’t the opponents seem to care about the mosque thzat already meets at the location”
Because it appears this site appears to have been chosen for this center with the intention of sparking a debate about Islam relative the US.
So now they have their debate…

I just don’t think many world topics are on normal people’s radar –sad, but true
wait, why is it sad? we only get one life you know. might as well only focus on the stuff you enjoy. there is WAY too much boring crap out there that people think you need to know about when in reality it’s totally irrelevant to one’s happiness and well being.
religions (pretty much all of them) have got to be the most boring thing in the entire. all they do is cause trouble and look for hand outs anyway. screw them all.
satanism is kinda cool tho
*rob*
benson- what makes you think I or donatella or gem are filled with self-loathing or so intent on political correctness that we just can’t “see the truth” as you so smugly assume you do? This is what pisses me off so much about you. You assume the worst of everyone else and the best of yourself. You fall for every piece of drek Faux News blasts on the TV and while you are thrilled to be bashing Islam. you are the first one to shriek bigotry against Italians over nothing so big as someone quoting an old Italian handyman by using his accent.
As for “Immediately after 9/11, he tells an audience in Australia that the US has killed as many innocent Muslims as the folks who flew those planes into the WTC, but I would be a bigot to take account of this fact, right?”
What he said was that US foreign policy is part of the problem. Yet you choose to ignore the comments by Falwell and Robertson a day or so after, saying the US deserved what it got because we are “immoral” SO yes- because you ignore the Falwells and the Robertsons, because yu stereotype people, and insult anyone who doesn’t agree with you- yes. You’re a bigot.
Many will vehemently disagree with what I’m about to say but to those who lost someone on 9/11, it was a tragedy of enormous proportion but, it is time to move on.
Benson?
