Perhaps we have some double-speak here and I may, as you suggested, have written up Carter wrongly.
I quote: "Obama's spokesman Robert Gibbs moved this week to calm temperatures after Carter said much of the criticism levelled at Obama, America's first Black President, was the result of racism.
I quote further:" In an interview on NBC o more…

I don't think he should have been released, particularly now that some of the base political reasons for this decision are being aired.

Mugabe is little more than a rabble-rouser, who has almost single-handedly destroyed a once highly prosperous country. I hope that the British Labour Party feel well satisfied with the results of their stupidity.
After all, it was they who were responsible for bringing about the downfall of the Ian Smith government.

Don't be so pessimistic and judgemental. There are still a lot of smart, hardworking, wonderful people out there.

You wanna thank the Americanisation of this country for that, which is basically look after number one and sod everyone else (including increasingly your kids for a lot of people).

LOL. Nice post. Re: bLiars motley crew, all I can say is crap keeps craps company. I do think the immigration issue is highly manipulated though, as it provides a Joe Moore like useful and mute target to stop us thinking about REAL abuse of the hospitals and schools issues. I can accept that there will be abuses of the system, but I question its si more…

Incredible. And I write as a white British, ex christian atheist:

1. Wearing a veil is not "making a demand."

2. Very few Muslim women in Britain wear a veil. Many dress in the same way as you say they do ion Egypt and the Lebanon.

Sorry, but you are missing my point: I am saying that as Middle Eastern women become more liberal in terms of dress, British Muslims appear to be aping the most demanding of restrictions on dress. Is this a Pakhistani thing or are there other influences that insist on this drab cover-up? Are British Muslims more Muslim than many Middle Eastern coun more…
