    I really do not doubt a Jew think he is ethnically the same as a Persian.
    You're just busy digging a deeper hole for yourself.

    Not in the least. Nor am I in the least bit colonial in any sense of that word.

    What I was referring to was that recent genetic tests show that a person's deep heritage is so mixed that there is no such thing as a "pure" anything. This in response to Sobo's claim that he is a pure German.

    It is amusing to think that Sobo, in his race to racist purity has, like us all, his origins in Africa.

    Making up false accusations, as you have here, is also a rules violation. I have not changed your words when I quoted them. Your "words" were in brackets which indicates they weren't a quote.

    Here is what you wrote in Message #274:
    Have you considered that three of the major players have nuclear weapons?

    Income and wealth disparity in the United States is a serious problem and extends beyond take home pay. Poorly funded inner city and rural schools are damaging our future workforce. Ditto the lack of decent healthcare for tens of millions of Americans.

    Canadians won't forget the U.S. forcing the sale of it's C-series jets to Airbus so Boeing could snap up Embraer. Payback? Canada will deny us things we want in the future. Water for the Midwest and West? Fat chance. Oil? They're building a pipeline to their west coast to sell oil to Asia. Lumber? They're developing Asian markets. Trade? They have a free trade deal with the EU. Doesn't matter? Canada is by far our largest export market.

    I don't think Trumpites have any idea how much contempt Canadians, Australians, and nearly all Europeans have for Trump. That Americans would elect someone like Trump has changed how Americans themselves are seen.

    Csnadians won't forget this one. Want Canadians to make sacrifices so they can send water to the Midwest and West? Won't happen. Want Canadian oil when the shale boom fades? Canada is building a pipeline to Vancouver so it can sign long-term deals with Asia. Lumber? Sell more to Asia, less to us. Trade? Our largest export market now has a free trade deal with the European Union.
    They won't. Do you know why?

    A good part of it. Canada is willing to conclude a trade deal with the U.S. but not one that leaves it kissing Ameican butt or Trump's ring. The NAFTA negotiations may be a turning point in long-term relations between the U.S. and Canada.

    Meaning what?
    The unanimous vote for sanctions on North Korea.
    The soft power we exercise through the UN saves us more money than it costs.

    Do you even know what the Gold Standard was, how it worked, and why it would be impossible to being it back given the volume of international trade?

    How do you square Oslo with Israel annexing Jerusalem more than a decade before?

    I always thought the concept of Purity was rather strange. Who cares the only people that talk about it are the ones who think they're better because of it and have nothing else to be proud of.

    Yes, polls that collectively were within the margin of error on the popular vote they were measuring.

    You don't understand how pilling works, do you?

    I was thinking of you, and more generally of your fellow traveler Trumpites. Are you waiting for Trump to bring back your low-skill, high-wage factory job? ROFL

    Why, Conservatives are doing just fine, thank you for asking. A great Christmas season president Trump have brought us; more to come.

    'Tis are gonna be a long, miserable seven years for an American Liberals, and I'm talking about state of mind. Materially, they'll benefit from Trump policies just like the rest of us, but mentally... oh boy... :hiding:

    I've heard, our learning institutions are opening new courses and preparing to educate more Psychologists and Psychiatrists... we gonna need them all.

    Religious traditionalists dressing up in conservative garb are getting their way--for now. You aren't real conservatives.
    Trump won't be President on January 21, 2021.
