25 Years On... (78)
Ccincy: I'm not asking him anything. It's funny how some people will argue about the strangest stuff especially when it took place so many centuries ago.
The only logical thing would be if some of us younger folks who weren't around during those particular times had actually been there and not just something that we were taught in history books in the classroom etc.Do we have any real proof that all that really happened? I view it no different than reading what is in the news.

You just said yesterday that half of Kazahk population are Russian. When in reality it's only a 1/4.
You didn't even know the ethnic breakdown of your OWN city, Habibbi

Fat-cat donors control elections. Money is corrupting politics. A few wealthy individuals dictate the national debate.
How many times have you heard comments like these?
Harry Reid says the Koch Brothers are destroying the country. Glenn Beck blames George Soros.
So who are the real Wizards of Washington pulling the political strings?
USA Today did some research on this year’s financial support of so-called super PACS to find out. Super PACs are not supposed to directly coordinate activities with specific candidates or campaigns, but they are allowed to receive unlimited donations from individuals or companies.
With a quick analysis of the donor lists, it is exceptionally easy to get the general picture of the types of political views supported by different super PACs.
Here are the top ten super PAC donors for 2014, their contributions, and their political party affiliation:
Tom Steyer, $73.7 million, Democrat
Michael Bloomberg, $20.0 million, Independent
Paul Singer, $9.3 million, Republican
Robert Mercer, $8.1 million, Republican
Fred Eychaner, $7.9 million, Democrat
Sheldon Adelson, $5.0 million, Republican
J. Joe Ricketts, $4.9 million, Republican
Richard E. Uihlein, $4.2 million, Republican
Robert McNair, $3.5 million, Republican
George Soros, $3.0 million, Democrat
Now, a look at the largest super PACs, the amounts received, and their general political party affiliation. Though a few eschew designation, their activities are clearly left- or right-oriented, and are designated as Republican or Democrat here for clarity:
NesGenClimate Action Committee, $68 million, Democrat
Senate Majority, $18.3 million, Democrat
American Crossroads, $15.3 million, Republican
Independence USA, $13 million, Michael Bloomberg (he’s the only donor to this group)
Ending Spending Action Fund, $12.9 million, Republican
Freedom Partners Action Fund, $11.2 million, Republican
House Majority, $8.7 million, Democrat
Congressional Leadership Fund, $6.7 million, Republican
American Unity, $5.2 million, Republican
Club for Growth Action, $3.9 million, Republican
In sum, that’s $95 million for Democratic causes, $55.2 million for Republicans, and $13 million for Michael Bloomberg. Bloomberg is a particularly unique political animal, in that he used to be a Republican and is now a registered Democrat; he has also given more money to Democrat-leaning groups this year than he has before.
The next time you hear a money-is-corrupting politics comment, whether you agree with that or not, you’ll at least know who’s responsible.

Yep, no doubt Italy has an ugly history. If not for WWII, citizens here would probably still use the Roman Salute. Now, instead, we hold the right hand over the heart while pledging allegiance etc.

bungallow55: Only an idiot with no brain will use personal attacks when you can even have the gut to show your face.
Everyone's here know I'm from Puerto Rico because I said so, I have nothing to hide nor denying what I am, but you, you don't have a face, what are you hiding? if you are a so proud patriotic Irish.

I'm not proud patriotic anything. My face, as you know was on display for a long long time. I don't need it on display, now. You obviously do. I never got personal with you really. I'm simply making an hypocrite of you.
You don't get to talk about any other crimes anywhere unless you can also talk about the crimes somewhere else that were exactly the same. And in your case, it's your little Island of Puerto Rico. You could be from anywhere else and I'll bring up the local skeletons just to give you a shake down.
See galrads there? Has absolutely no problem distancing himself away from the actions of that particular State during that particular time. But you?
Weren't people imprisoned, shot and killed just for wanting freedom in PR within living memory? Wasn't it illegal to wave PR native flags around a few decades ago?
No better that any dictatorship. Pot. Kettle. It reminds me of people in Australia for example crying about Apartheid years ago... but then changing their tune when Aborigines were brought up.
Same with Americans and Native Americans.
Nobody gets to point a finger at ANYONE while they can't accept the crimes closer to home.

When a person uses personal insulting attacks about his/her origins like you're doing, then Houston, we have a problem
Recently someone asked my origins cause my broken English, but this someone didn't have a face, so who was this person asking personal question? I don' have to answer.
Im glad you're reading on google about my Island, even if is it just to attack me...those who were against American dominion in the Island wanted another boss instead...Russia
When USSR collapsed, Socialist Party in Puerto Rico disappeared.
You see? Yankee go home/Russian come home.

Never insulted your origins. Your origin is your mother. I just pointed out the hypocrisy of a totalitarian state in your country. Basically the same as Cuba, but a different colour of politics.

Don't need google. There's books with paper in them. And the paper had words on it.
So the USSR is gone, but Puerto Ricans still don't elect the POTUS, their absolute Colonial leader? Isn't that like a benevolent dictatorship, just with town mayors. A bit like so-called Communist China.
