I don't care who you are ... that there's funny.
I’m already tired of the coverage of his death, now I can’t wait for Friday to be over. If we’re lucky we’ll stop hearing about him by next Monday.
“The president of Turkey”
What?
Let’s get this over with. I’m already sick of hearing about this America-hating draft dodger.
Although tiresome, it is revealing how many terrorism supporters are coming out of the woodwork to openly praise him.
TODAY: Knock Trump all day long. Eulogize Ali all day long. D-Day,... barely a word. MSM leftist freaks strike again. They sure have their priorities right, don’t they. Media swine.
You and me both! I was sick of after 10 minutes.
They are having his funeral.... at the fried chicken center? And Erdogan is speaking? Is this the onion?
Perhaps Erdogan could make a side trip while here and escort Gulen back to Turkey. There is an existing extradition order. Gulen, holed up in the Pocono Mountains, controls 130 Charter Schools here in the U S., several on our Military bases. Millions of our tax dollars flowing into Turkey through these Charters. Erdogan says Gulenists are terrorists.
He was a pretty good fighter, but they’ve played this song too much. I’m tired of it.
All this for a boxer?
Me three. I have the misfortune of being in Louisville.
I shudder to think how many streets will be closed off for its tributes, its funeral, and how many streets and highways, buildings, arenas, parks, neighborhoods, and more, will be named / renamed after that pathologically lying devil.
There’s no room in our world for satire anymore. It’s all for real.
Mariah Carey just commented on how wonderful it is that the greatest basketball player of all time would be attending the funeral.
““The president of Turkey”
What?”
Ali is muslim.....enough said.
Sure hope the Jordanian doesn’t get hit by anything intended for the TURK ! Maybe some egg tossing Bernistas will be there huh? /sarc
I won’t be surprised if the flag is ordered at half mast. He’s being celebrated as a great American. He may have been a great boxer but he most definitely was NOT a great American.
I wouldn't have been surprised at an earlier announcement. There was this news:
Muhammad Ali's Hometown of Louisville Pays Tribute to the Boxing Legend (Flags at half mast)
"At a ceremony at the city's Metro Hall, Mayor Greg Fischer said flags on government buildings would remain at half-staff until Ali has been laid to rest."
