When and How Will it End?
by: Les Carpenter Rational Nation USA Birthplace of Independent Conservatism This is America. We are an English speaking nation. We have distinct and traditional American cultural values. We have some Americans in our population who have difficulty speaking a coherent sentence. We have many who cannot construct a complete and proper sentence. Yet we find the time and the money to educate youth in Arabic and Arabic culture. Mind you this is a Federal Grant program and limited to only five select school districts. At least for now. At a cost of 1.3 millions dollars students on these select district will be required, you heard {read} right, required as mandatory part of their curriculum to learn Arabic. This is a blatant abuse of taxpayer money, and it is indicative of the future course our nation has embarked upon under the fuzzy, misguided, and incredibly deceitful anti leade...

ReplyDeleteI'll take one of each.
ReplyDeleteClearly, one could never lose, gentlemen.
ReplyDeleteI'm a Gene Tierney fan all the way.
ReplyDeleteI loved her in "The Razor's Edge and "Leave Her to Heaven". She was the superior actress, I think.
ReplyDeleteGene Tierney, without a doubt!
ReplyDeleteI have a marked preference for Hedy's classic beauty. So symmetrical ! No wonder why Errol Flynn, Myrna Loy or Lana Turner rhapsodize about her beauty in their autobiographies. Gene is very different. Her beauty is more exotic and she radiates something special.That's why so many friends of mine love her. She's more approachable. Hedy radiates something colder, more hieratic.
ReplyDeleteEasy - Hedy.
ReplyDeleteInterestingly enough, both of these supremely beautiful dark-haired actresses were married (at different times, of course) to the same man, oil baron W. Howard Lee.
