This man is a war criminal. Why is he even out free in the world let alone receiving applause? Seriously, we wonder why much of the world hates the US.

If only Cheney could be on the other end of a "hunting accident"...

@Allardyce Well, you are appealing to my higher sense of judgment, and I apologise for my temper tantrum- I hope you evaluate me in earnest. Yes; We must do what is correct, not because gov't mandates us to do so. Maybe the abuses in USA at the "higher" level more profound than here in France, to your experience and wisdom, I yield. But my father was a kind man, too--and often, because one "must" pay one worker a gov't set wage, it impedes us to pay others more deservedly

@poitrenaud Incidentally, to my employees, I don't pay them a living wage because I'm forced to. I do it because it's the right thing to do.

[Allardyce]

@poitrenaud  Also a business owner, taxes have yet to break me. Did you ever think that maybe your tax liability wouldn't be what it was if we weren't having to pay for a lied-into war-for-profit in Iraq or the "country killer" war in Afghanistan. Republicans love war, but they expect somebody else to pay for it and to clean up the mess when it becomes the inevitable quagmire. I'd much rather see my tax money going to entitlement programs than see it go to senseless wars or greedy Wall Street.

@Allardyce Please Run for Office-

Let me try to appeal to your pragmatics. Maybe we are more on the same page as you think. I run an old, family musical instrument factory. We manufacture high quality trumpets, cornets. And as I said, our Tax Structure takes about 42% of our gross profits, for doing nothing!!

The government should give us a credit. Instead, their gangster bolshevik unions force us to pay a gov't set wage--It is PRIVATE business.

Tell me who I should blame for this? Religion?

[Allardyce]

@poitrenaud Once again, confusion abounds. It's not the progressives who wish to turn the Unites States into a theocracy, it's the right wing neocons who wish to alter the constitution to reflect dogma from the Christian religion. Whether Christian or Muslim rule, there is no difference. All religion has no business in government. Your end-of-life-as-we-know-it fear mongering is an old trick, so yes, you're wasting your time trying to lay neocon drivel on those of us who know better.

[poitrenaud]

@Allardyce Okey-YOU WIN! You wear people down with Nonsense. And then we finally give up-

The world will soon be YOURS!

We will die off, our industries will be old rusty buildings, Sharia law will be implemented in former Christian nations, and the few of YOU that are left Alive,

wil DARE criticise your NEW Muslim Rulers in the fashion you can so readily criticise we dumb neanderthal Christians,

If u do with Muslims as you do us, they Declare Fatwah, and u will b history- enjoy the ride...

[Allardyce]

@poitrenaud In other words, the only persons allowed to call people names they don't agree with are right-wing, corporate ass-kissing neocons and their mindless minions here and abroad.

[Allardyce]

@poitrenaud I guess I have to spell it out to you in order for you to understand. here are two quotes from you and let's just see if you can spot some hypocrisy: First, you say: "You never call people names, whom you don't agree with" THEN you say: "You're comical! Pathetic subhuman peasant-"! NOW look up the word hypocrisy and see if you can make the connection.

[poitrenaud]

Yes; I will stay here in Rouen, where 40% is now Muslim, the remainder, unemployed-

Mostly French. I, fortuantely have my own business. The Socialiste Government I am subjugated to, takes about 45% of my gross profits, and the strong-arm unions(Bolsheviks) force me to hire MORONS whom the "state" determines the wages I must pay. My family created this business in the 1600s-

You want THIS type of government in USA? Progressive?

It is Y O U who is the idiot!

You want this for America? IDIOT
