Their country, their problem. We have enough of our own.

SmokeyJoe · 06-15-2010, 07:44 PM

Surely a sign of the apocalypse... the gall of these people.

G G · 06-15-2010, 07:59 PM

Sounds like they're about as nutty as we are now a days. Epic fail

Mr.Maduro · 06-15-2010, 08:10 PM

Absolutely ridiculous!

On a side note, who else had Aces High running through their heads after reading the first paragraph?

At least this appears not to be government sanctioned nonsense, but the work of a Nazi.

dyieldin · 06-15-2010, 08:54 PM

That, my friends, is just BS.

AAlmeter · 06-15-2010, 09:20 PM

They're a mess. Photographs are the least of their problems.

St. Lou Stu · 06-15-2010, 09:24 PM

next they will propose a vitola name change. right?
I mean... since Churchill didn't smoke cigars?

ValorBali41 · 06-15-2010, 09:54 PM

I also suppose that Mark Twain, Bill Cosby, and JFK didn't smoke cigars either? The big things we do define our character, but the small things define our personality. Churchill was an incredible leader, but also witty, sociable, and an extremely avid cigar smoker. Covering the stick up is fraud and treason.

icehog3 · 06-15-2010, 10:08 PM

What a joke.

Doesn't Sir Winston look sort of like Benny Hill without his cigar?

How exactly does a speech to an influential body encouraging tolerance, understanding and considering alternative view points make anything worse?

The title of that article is a bit misleading. He didn't say that everyone needed to be Islamic, just that one of the points in the Koran was a great idea. Don't see anything wrong with that.

I need to read that, but here is my opinion before knowing any facts...you know, my usual post.
Not that we don't have our own religious whackos here on this continent, but them Is-slammies
are messed up. -----Read article----Ehh, sounds like pandering to me. His country is so chock
full of em that he almost has to play nice. I am sure ours is too, but most of HIS look pissed off
all the time.

The Poet · 06-16-2010, 02:00 PM

Didn't one of our own homegrown fascists draped nude statues in DC to protect the moral integrity of the American public? And did Faux News have a problem with that?

At least the Brits had the, admittedly lame, excuse of censoring for health reasons.

BigFrank · 06-16-2010, 02:17 PM

I bet they will start airbrushing cigars into the mouths the not so popular.

Didnt mean to hijack this thread, just thought that the the Future Head of the Church of England pandering to muslims was noteworthy in the context of Britain being out of control.

There are areas of Britain that sharia law prevails. They are going to lose their national identity soon enough, we just happen to be seeing the beginning of it. Editing pictures of people with cigars is just the start. Remember the Buddhist Statues in Afghanistan? taliban hate statues

Here is the link to the sharia law shenanigans.
