They are almost of the same ilk, save the atheist-versus-Muslim thing; Islamic socialism prevails in much of the Arab world.

Three meals a day.

Probably full of GMO mind control substances.

My kids won’t eat the crap at school.

They know what good food tastes like.

Au contraire.

Those ranging from ‘moderate’ (stand for nothing) to far left pose the most danger.

This post will soar over the head of a liberal.

They’re already calling those “migrants” in Europe. Wonder what word they’ll use next?
