No wonder at all, if you’ve been there. Iceland is matriarchal and matrilineal.

Also, Spring Break lasts until October or so.

I share it. One of the reasons my parents moved to this great country was because of the cold war and they'd both been in concentration camps during WWII. Didn't want to repeat that experience. However, I don't think anywhere in the world is safe. I don't think life is safe, come to that. Who knows what will happen? I can't stand That One, couldn't stand the one before him either. But this country is worth fighting for. The values and vision our nation was founded on are unique, and like you, I don't want to see our beautiful USA destroyed. So I'll stay and try to see it through. BTW, reading Larry Doyle's post and his links, Italy is not a very good place to be economically considering its debt ratio. Austria is another place that doesn't look too good economically. But then we're all in this same (sinking? hope not) boat together and I think we really need you to help bail out the water and help our nation to come through this traumatic time.

And he kept us safe because we're all still alive. Think again. That won't be for long. Get off Bush and open your eyes. The scum in the White House isn't even comparable to Bush. Not even close. This is an Anti-American traitor POS stoned out nut job Muslim who thinks we should all die. Can you say the same about Bush? HELL NO. Bush is gone, long gone.

Summers bankrupted Lithuania in the 90's and they ran him out of the country. He's a dirty dealer--and btw why is Harvard producing some of the worst crooks in history? “The economy is already starting to turn around”

I love how Obots don’t acknowledge that it’s possible to possess philosophical disagreements with Obama & dismiss any disagreement as irrational hate.

It’s akin to people denouncing women as
hystrerical who just need to have their uteruses removed in order to become normal.
