  1. It's not about Bush

    It's not about Israel

    The Israelis are just canaries in the coal mine

    It's about a culture that wants to take over the world and most of the world is just rolling over and letting it happen.

    Is there a single country in the world they are not ruining?

    Have Muslims protested one death cause by people of their religion?

    Here are the facts. Double check them if you doubt them: http://www.thereligionofpeace.com

    Plenty of Muslim leaders have condemned these killings,you should vary your reading and listening material.

    Just looked at your link,no wonder you think like you do.

    The link details daily killings. Please show me outcries and mass demonstrations like those the Muslims do for silly cartoons. If Muslims as a group would stand up all this would stop, but they do not. When one gets past political correctness and thinking a all cultures are equal, then the world will be a better place.

  2. Hence if they live in CM surely they will have better advice than tourists on a short stay holiday...... Or am I missing something here?

    i have friends coming in a few weeks for a few days and i've suggested "the M hotel". i do not highly recommend it, but it is at ground zero for tourists who want to walk out the door and be within walking distance to most tourist things.

  3. No, not the American people. Republicans.

     

    If you ask the rest of the world, the worst and most hated president of the USA ever, was Dubya.

     

     

     

     

     

     

    That's interesting. Can you name not 100, not 10, but just one country in the world that America is on better terms with now?

  4. YOU ASK WHY?

     

     

     

    Immigrants to be Housed in 'Suites' Near San Antonio


    KARNES CITY - Immigration and Customs Enforcement on Friday will open a remodeled detention center three hours north of the Rio Grande Valley.

    The Karnes City center will house women and children who entered the country illegally through the Valley.

    The 532-bed facility underwent a massive renovation to house women and children. The center housed only adult immigrants in the past.

    Immigrants will be at the facility for an average of 23 days.

    The feds said the rooms will be referred to as "suites." The suites are furnished with bunk beds, play tables for children, flat-screen television sets and landline telephones.

    "I will refer to everyone in this facility as a resident. ICE generally refers to people in custody as detainees," ICE San Antonio Field Office Director Enrique Lucero said.

    Lucero oversaw the transformation of the center.

    The center has a soccer field covered with artificial turf, basketball courts, ping pong tables and a weight room. Officials also have plans to install a playground.

    A charter school from nearby San Antonio will provide schooling and access to a library for the immigrant children.

    The immigrants will get medical screenings. Children will receive physicals within 24 hours of arriving at the center and women within a week.

    "There is a dentist on site," Lucero said.

    There is a room where the immigrants will get to pick new clothes. Every illegal immigrant will be able to choose six sets of clothes, including shoes and socks.

    "While residents are here ... we will provide a safe and humane environment," Lucero said.

    The feds estimate it will cost approximately $74,000 a day to house 532 immigrants at the center. That's an average of $140 a day per person.

    Officials did not disclose how much the government spent to refurbish the center.

  5. I think his refusing to secure the borders is reason enough. hundreds of thousands of illegals and two out of 10 have criminal records. Even a third world country is smart enough to secure it's borders. They've been flown with taxpayer money to other locations and will take even more US jobs, but of course they are the future Democratic's voting for free handouts and have already protested at the White House without fear of arrest.

    Wars are horrendous, regardless of the reason for them. However, the worst atrocities are always those carried out during religious conflicts as there is no justification for them in the first instance.

     

    Far far more people have been killed in the last 100 years due to secularism (non religious), but that may not be so in the next hundred, but do mostly if not all to radical islamists.

     

     

    These wars were not due to secularism. Secularism was just incidental.

    All wars are about territory.

     

    yes it was their ideology or as you say incidental. just wanting to point out that religion is not the cause of so much killing in the past 100 years. territory and ideology, yes? are the islamists after territory so much as demanding the world bend to their beliefs?

  8. on soi ratchadamnoen at the thaipae gate walk just past black canyon coffee and the first pharmacy on the left side of the road is a great pharmacy. the women who runs it is very knowledgeable and has it there.

  9. OK guys i have all the answers to all your questions in life and half the answers to your questions in the after life. after seeing this about 'the cat house' i decided to stop by for dinner. jack (or jackie) the owner was there and i told her there were questions about her new place. bottom line well it's only about 100 meters away on the same street on the other side going towards the moat. it's a much much nicer place and is called 'butter nut' (possibly 'nut butter'). hear are a few quick snaps. i did not eat there, but someone who was sitting next to me at 'the cat house' said that it was very good and by the looks of the prices on her blackboard it's priced very well as well. i did not see any sign out front, but did not look very hard. i had a short discussion of her lack of promoting her place and lack of promoting of things in her restaurant, but that's another story unto itself. i find that she has decent food at decent prices and she's a concerned owner, blah blah blah.
