as does the factor of the Gaza Strip's residents being unable to flee towards safer places as the Syrians and Sudanese have done in huge numbers.

And how much of that is because Egypt doesn't want them and won't allow them in?


But for you and many others, clearly it has become some kind of dirty word that automatically stops you from taking people seriously when they use it.

Like so much else, the concept may be worthwhile but the execution is seriously flawed.



I don't think the motives of Congress, as a whole, are always bad. Stefanik being hot garbage doesn't mean they all are.

"It could probably be shown by facts and figures that there is no distinctly native American criminal class except Congress."

"I never can think of Judas Iscariot without losing my temper. To my mind Judas Iscariot was nothing but a low, mean, premature, Congressman."

"Fleas can be taught nearly anything that a Congressman can."

All attributed to the great Samuel Clemens.
