Someone has been hurling dirty diapers from a window of a public housing complex on Essex Street in New York — and disgusted neighbors want the crappy caretaker to cut it out.

Dozens of nasty feces filled diapers have piled up on an awning above the first-floor of the 23-story Seward Park Extension building, others have hit the sidewalk.


Is this a newsworthy event, or merely latent racism?

Or perhaps Hillary’s doing it?

Or maybe it happens because of Hillary?

Or maybe that’s just where your mind dwells?

To more directly answer your question--spending is the perview of the house of Representitives. Since the current budget is not approved a continuing resolution is necessary to keep the Gov't open. The bill must be signed by the Pres. With regard to WW2. The US lend/lease program kept England from conquest. Without supplies from The US there would have been no fuel for the spitfires to stay in the air. Never so few etc. And without Ike and SHAEF England would be speaking German as Overlord never would have happened, because there would not jhave been the supplies. Ask yourself this question. How many graveyard filled with Engilsh dead form WW2 are there in the US--None why? How many US dead in GB and Europen graveyards arfe there-many- Why?

Pardon me for correcting you, but the word you want is not ‘conquest,’ but conquer.

con·quest

the subjugation and assumption of control of a place or people by use of military force.

"the conquest of the Aztecs by the Spanish"

“the invasion and assumption of control of England by William of Normandy in 1066.

‘Conquest’ is something the victor does, not the vanquished.

The vanquished are conquered.

“How many graveyard filled with Engilsh dead form WW2 are there in the US--None why?”

The answer is because we don’t import casualties from England to be buried in this country.

You are correct, we probably saved England in WW II, and we probably did it is self defense.

And more than that, we set up NATO which has kept the world from another world war—at least until trump, acting at Putin’s orders, attacked NATO to make Europe more vulnerable to Russia’s adventures.

First, why the name calling? Can you not have an adult conversation? I specifically said ALL who commit murder are villains. You specifically say undocumented are NOT villains. Simple enough to read and understand.


You can’t read it, and you certainly don’t understand it. I’ll give you credit for sincerity since no one would dare to show themselves as dumb as you seem to be.

I’ll leave the quote up for all to see and judge for themselves whether you’re bullshitting or sincerely confused.


“My point is, if you resent murders and their totals, the undocumented are not the villains, but the native-born Americans are—their murder rate is twice the undocumented, and the documented, i.e. legal immigrant’s, murder rates is even lower than the undocumented.”

That is how you always answer posts, insults, obfuscation, lies but never with any substance. You feel you are one of the Liberal elites and therefore what you say must automatically be believed by we, the little people, Hillary’s deplorables. Problem is it is President Trump elected by We the People, who has truly made America great again. Get off your fat butt, take a look around at other world leaders who are catching on to his energy, his ideas that work.

I have to apologize for some of my fellow citizens, who are ingracious and sometimes misinformed.

No thinking person sells England short for WW II.

Yeah, because we didn't start it.
But when the "Sleeping giant was awakened" we kicked butt and got it over with while you were cowering on your little island and watching the "Empire" collapse like a house of cards to third rate powers. We had to gear up and then rolled over Germany and Japan like they were nothing. You lost the far east without even a fight hardly, same for Africa. If we had not given you supplies and materials you would have folded in a matter of months prior to our official entry into WWII. Not sure what they teach you there but we armed the world including the Soviets.
It wasn't our fight, like WWI wasn't but we finished it.
PS After WWII the "Empire" was gone and GB was just a little island needing the USA for defense to this day.

This is excessive and overblown, and a particularly in gracious post.

Nobody rolled over Germany and Japan like they were nothing, and the men who fought them got all they wanted and more; we defeated them but it wasn’t child’s play.

Tommie Friedman is nothing but a typical Blue State Brown Shirt. Explains why you drool when you see his BS.


This is from Wikipedia. I took out pronouncing guide and footnotes, as you wouldn’t understand them.

Get someone to help you with the big words.

“Thomas Loren Friedman born July 20, 1953) is an American activist for globalism and political commentator and author. He is a three-time Pulitzer Prize winner. Friedman currently writes a weekly column for The New York Times. He has written extensively on foreign affairs, global trade, the Middle East, globalization, and environmental issues.

(Snip)

Friedman joined the London bureau of United Press International after completing his master's degree. He was dispatched a year later to Beirut, where he lived from June 1979 to May 1981 while covering the Lebanon Civil War. He was hired by The New York Times as a reporter in 1981 and re-dispatched to Beirut at the start of the 1982 Israeli invasion of Lebanon. His coverage of the war, particularly the Sabra and Shatila massacre, won him the Pulitzer Prize for International Reporting (shared with Loren Jenkins of The Washington Post). Alongside David K. Shipler[clarification needed] he also won the George Polk Award for foreign reporting.

In June 1984, Friedman was transferred to Jerusalem, where he served as the New York Times Jerusalem Bureau Chief until February 1988. That year he received a second Pulitzer Prize for International Reporting, which cited his coverage of the First Palestinian Intifada.[22] He wrote a book, From Beirut to Jerusalem, describing his experiences in the Middle East, which won the 1989 U.S. National Book Award for Nonfiction.

Friedman covered Secretary of State James Baker during the administration of President George H. W. Bush. Following the election of Bill Clinton in 1992, Friedman became the White House correspondent for the New York Times. In 1994, he began to write more about foreign policy and economics, and moved to the op-ed page of The New York Times the following year as a foreign affairs columnist. In 2002, Friedman won the Pulitzer Prize for Commentary for his "clarity of vision, based on extensive reporting, in commenting on the worldwide impact of the terrorist threat."

In February 2002, Friedman met Saudi Crown Prince Abdullah and encouraged him to make a comprehensive attempt to end the Arab–Israeli conflict by normalizing Arab relations with Israel in exchange for the return of refugees alongside an end to the Israel territorial occupations. Abdullah proposed the Arab Peace Initiative at the Beirut Summit that March, which Friedman has since strongly supported.

Friedman received the 2004 Overseas Press Club Award for lifetime achievement and the same year was named to the Order of the British Empire by Queen Elizabeth II.
