Re: Have people calmed down now?

And compared to watching 0-0 against Aldershot in the 4th Division in 1989, it certainly was more interesting.

Actually, what Trump is proposing is that women lay down in their rice fields, have the kid, and get immediately back to work, while breast-feeding. It works in Vietnam, so why not in America?

Re: Women protesting Donald Trump

It was supposed to be "Women's Day". The direct connection to Trump is more convenient, I think. Obviously, the organization has taken a long, long time. If Hillary had won, it would have become a celebration of her. She didn't, and I'm beginning to think more and more that that was good thing.

Re: "Alternative Facts"

"Alternative facts" is another way of using the term "truthiness". It's like people who believe the only true version of God's word is the King James Bible. Change a "thou" to "you", and the whole thing has no meaning. Really? As Shakespeare said, "A rose by any other name would smell as sweet."

When you start using "research and sources", it stops being an opinion and becomes a certain version of history. That is what Stalin did. Coming out soon, "The History of the World, According to Imploding Turtle". Sure to be a seller, but certainly not a best seller.
