After they're done with the public school history textbooks written in politically correctese, there will no mention of Christians and plenty of Muslims. After all, look how long it took non-Muslims to build the World Trade Towers versus how little time it took for Islamists to bring them down.LawHawkRFDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17800255923675295515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4425587034622601550.post-19945759857282329912012-08-17T17:26:03.415-04:002012-08-17T17:26:03.415-04:00LawHawk,

Muslims have played a major part in the development of America since the Revolution. In fact it was a Muslim who invented the cable suspension bridge.

It's a thinly-disguised fantasy about Hillary Clinton, complete with a weak and vacillating president (from her own party) and her desire to run for the presidency again. Of course to make it more scandal-friendly, they've added her gay, drug-addled suicidal pianist son who wants to run a fabulous night club and a [former] husband who is more like Lyndon Johnson than Bill Clinton.LawHawkRFDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17800255923675295515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4425587034622601550.post-69006721353677784582012-08-17T14:11:08.479-04:002012-08-17T14:11:08.479-04:00Indi: Oh, Big Brother!
