Well said! I'm not ..."The People of the Tantrum." Well said! I'm not as worried about the values that we possess as I am about the values imposed by the whole concept of political correctness. Those of us with the will can and will resist. Those of us that don't know any better will knuckle under and think it "for the best."<BR/><BR/>Good report and though I never watched Fawlty Towers, you have picked a perfect video to express your thoughts.

The others practice a sort of nihilism where we must hurry up and destroy ourselves.Nancy Coppockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01938274161807178689noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1625076107995960519.post-37102299792525269992007-12-26T07:52:00.000-05:002007-12-26T07:52:00.000-05:00Well, it's another reason to recognize that any po...Well, it's another reason to recognize that any political relations with "Palestinians" are futile unless and until Hamas is crushed militarily and utterly extirpated from the political scene.<BR/><BR/>That's the neurotic, nearly emasculated hardship one comic Englishman dramatizes (through comedy). It helps me picture what relity was like for any moderately-witted Israeli during the 1990s.Jeremayakovkahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00741574721409282988noreply@blogger.com
