Had a Cortina with that motor. Yes, it was fast in its day.

Yes, at this point, scepticism. But I'd bet your left nut there is a bunch of FOI applications rushing through the system. Based on recent crazy behaviour by entitled oligarcs and power brokers, it's too easy to believe it. If true, I hope there is enough integrity left in their corrupted legal system to bring the b.....s to account.

Nothing wrong with the word 'escort'. All types of working women deserve respect.

I once had a 15 year old escort. Needed a head job to be any good. Otherwise it was a good daily drive.

Land of the free ! Land of free speech ! Land of not-so-original dictatorship.

Here's a random thought. A hilarious thought. If USA takes over Greenland, will they re-own all the junk and pollutants that they left behind when they abandoned their under ice nuke missile base? It was home to 200 personnel for over 10 years. https://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2016/08/05/488872411/melting-ice-in-greenland-could-expose-serious-pollutants-from-buried-army-base

I think this would be a good time to resurrect the American Anti-Imperialist League. M. Twain was a member; “And so I am an anti-imperialist. I am opposed to having the eagle put its talons on any other land.” I rather like a lot of Mr Twain's writings.

Nah. None of that glory or talent. Just plain mad. In a mostly harmless way

Trump against crushing protesters.... in Iran. Opposite to USA. Where they just shoot them.

Somebody is sure to send a stern letter. Forget all those empty promises. Just wait for a new news cycle.

So, nothing to worry about. Donold did promise 'You'll never have to vote again'. 😉

Sounds like a great spot for a wind turbine.

A great way to start life disowned, and then suddenly things get worse.

This is not what Donold T has done..... yet! Danish allies, including Germany, Canada and the Netherlands, are deploying troops to Greenland to participate in exercises amid a growing threat of incursion from Washington and other adversaries. This all is so f king awesome and weird. Euro nations scrambling to stop an American invasion!!!! I mean really, who thought it would get this far-out man.

We have a system that pretty much mandates there will be two parties, not one less, not one more. Every new party established has been absorbed by one of the two throughout our history...just as soon as they get sick and tired of being irrelevant. The small parties are trivial. There is something else I scratch my head over. The question of why aren't we tossing a bad power out? Because we don't have anything like the "vote of no confidence". We have to wait for election time for that to swap to the other squabblers. We are stuck with whatever we voted for another cycle, poweless to curb any crazy behaviour.

Australia, Britain and USA are basically two party democracies. Is it really democratic (Of the people, by the people), when it is basically a closed system where voters only get the choice of 'least worst', without a 'sack the lot' (no confidence) option?

I do hope she gets something more worthwhile tan a autographed DJT promotional merchandise bag.

Once a Nobel Prize is announced, it cannot be revoked, shared, or transferred to others. The decision is final and stands for all time. So the smart lady distracted donold with HER glittering trinket. The award and honor remains hers.

Well look at that. Drump graciously accepted the Nobel Peace Prize from Venezuelan Maria Corina Machado. I think she just played him. Maybe that little shiny gift saved lives of her countrymen.

If the lid fits properly, you won't hear the punch line.

That's proof that the more any demographic group is suppressed, the more extreme they get. Thank dog for emancipation. I feel safer now.

My astute friends already do!

Nah. That's not a wisom thing. That's measurement issue. He's been telling his wife 50mm is eight inches, for too long.

Thanks. I was not trying to blame DJ per se. Such things tend to take longer than an election cycle to develop. One point that you raised might be very significant to short term influences (maybe happening recently). The stats don't show whether the gap between 'haves' & 'havenots' has become a problem. At the extreme end, the billionaires have recently done extremely well. Average joe, not so much. That might skew the averages.
