"The relationship between our country and the countries of Europe as a whole remains a real cornerstone of the global efforts of the United States and peoples around the world," she said.

Didn't Effin' Kerry already run on this?

Yeah, but she's making a push for the gypsy vote. The only balls she's ever been interested in are crystal.

"Throughout her career Senator Clinton has been an advocate of the rights of women, children..."

Except if your an unborn child or pregnant of course.

Maybe if they don't want to be discriminated against they should stop robbing everybody blind.

I am really glad to also see her coming out against the treatment of women in Muslim countries, too. Beheading, beating, stoning, mutilation, etc. I mean, that'll be next, right?

And not one word from her highness about how Muslim women are treated.

Mr. and Mrs. Clinton have much more than their fair share of relationship to the Roma.

Billzo's own 5 times Great Grandfather, Billy Blythe, was deemed "King of the Gypsies" in North America. He spent his summers traveling with carnivals with his maternal grandmother as she worked as a fortune teller.

Clue!

The US Army is not in Tuzla, at the very center of the Roma's "Seven Sacred Hills" in FYR for no reason at all. Hillary even took a Roma focused trip that began at Ephesus at the shrine of the Virgin Mary. (Recall that Jesus' mother, Mary, and Mary Magdalen traveled with their servant "black" Sarah to Ephesus, little Sarah turning into the patron saint of the Gypsies or Roma.)

Hillary's trip ended at Athens, a city dedicated to the ancient goddess Athena whose night-time tem is the owl, the Roma traditional god of death.

There's even more, but it really shouldn't surprise anyone that Hillary Clinton really does have a strong feeling for the plight of the Gypsies ~ after all, she's part of the traditional royal class, as is Billzo.

Expressing this interest is the one good thing I've been able to credit her with.

About 99% of all Roma live in settled communities and do not engage in robbery.

They still get discriminated against unless they are sufficiently light skinned and have been allowed to attend school to learn to read and write.

That other 1%, though, are hell on wheels aren't they?!

From what I observed in Europe, it's significantly more than 1 percent.

Much of the Roma's European history has been characterized by intolerance and persecution

As usual, only one side of the picture is given.

Gypsies pride themselves on NOT assimilating and on stealing from the populace. They WANT to be on the outside.

Dude! I've spent a bit of time in eastern Slovakia, Hungary, and Romania. Based on my obversations there are a heck of a lot more than 1% of the Roma who refuse to play the game according to the rules. But then again, I've also heard that over 85% of all statistics are just made up on the spot.

No, there are a lot more Roma in Europe than you imagine, but that 1% is exceedingly effective.

Still, the ones you see aren't the ones that are successfully playing the game.

A story for you. Joseph Mengele picked out a young Gypsy boy to accompany him around the death camp. He dressed the boy in the finest clothes and fed him the best food available at the highest levels of the Nazi hierarchy.

Joseph treated the boy like his own.

But, then the end came, and Mengele feared for his life. He grabbed the child and tossed him alive headfirst into one of the great ovens used to burn the bodies of the dead.

That's rather the way the Europeans have dealt with Roma since their first encounters. It's time to get over it.

Yeah, I've had my experiences with them (trying to pick my pocket or steal my wife's handbag) in Italy and Hungary. They aren't exactly winning hearts and minds over there. I have yet to meet anyone who has interacted with them who has a positive thing to say. A culture explicitly based on thievery and deliberate non-assimilation.
