Mitt Romney had mondo problems winning over the British on the first leg of his diplomatic photo-op vacation, so you know what? Screw the "Special Relationship." Israel is now more special-er to the United States Empire than England ever was, harumph, so that's where Mitt Romney spent his last couple of days before jetting off to Poland. Oh, he saw the Western Wall, and some Israeli leaders, and stuff, and oh man, it's so much better than... it's just that England... grrr... England is stupid. What did Mitt Romney love the most about Israel?
Apparently also BBC newsreaders. Also too, whoever wrote wikipedia&#039;s page for <a href="http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Wikipedia:IPA_for_Polish" target="_blank">IPA for Polish</a>. (Actually, the BBC newsreaders went a little overboard and turned that W into a &quot;b&quot; sound instead of a &quot;v&quot;, if I recall my late 80s newscasts correctly)
Colloquialisms often don&#039;t make sense. For example, when things went wrong my Uncle Dester used to say &ldquo;The cat&#039;s in the applesuace again!&rdquo;. Uncle Dester was kind of slow.
The 3 pecker Billy Goat is not a common phrase but you can google it. The insinuation is that the more penises (peckers) one has the hornier (hotter) one gets.
He&#039;s also quoting a Federal budget line as a percentage GDP, not of, say, total Federal expenditures, and excluding state-level Guard expenditures. Then he compounds the deceit by comparing it against total healthcare expenditures, only about half of which are government expenditures, but that half does include state-level Medicaid, S-CHIP and other expenditures so still wouldn&#039;t be apples-to-apples.
In England, that&#039;s an Irish joke, made &quot;funnier&quot; by the actual existence (during my childhood) of actual Irish terrorists, very few of whom had burnt lips.
Seriously, Mitt needs to shut up. The situation in the Middle East is hotter than a three pecker billy goat and we don&rsquo;t need some self-elected pseudo-diplomat in training to screw things up worse
And the preemption of final status talks (didn&#039;t he whine loudly about that when Obama <em>didn&#039;t</em> do it but Mitt said he did?) doesn&#039;t even get a mention...
Dorsey libel!

If the Catholics make JP II a saint, will that put him off limits to the Mormons?

Unforced errors are his specialty.
Actually, no, they&#039;re more of a minor. His major is of course blatant lies.
WaÅÄsa, apparently. I never knew where that &#039;n&#039; sound came from, either.

Jeez, who elected him president?

Did he figure out which is the lox and which is the bagels?

Remarkably enough, at least the last two things exist.
Is this one of those rhetorical questions?
Well, Israel&#039;s occupation of the Palestinian territories <em>has</em> become ingrained into their culture.
It warms my heart to see any foreign official refer to Rmoney as &quot;this man&quot;.
