"He already sold out one wife,and his country, so of course a mother sale is no big deal."

Kerry and his ilk sold us out as well.

Kerry is not my great worry now. My worry is Hillary and her globe trotting ,deal making husband.

When we elect one we get the other free. There is no telling what mischief he will be sent to do at her bequest.

You are correct. Perhaps Free isnt the correct terminology.

You can bet your life that Bill already has his job picked out. More than likely it will include a lot of opportunities to fly around getting his butt kissed.

You may be right at this point in time. Perhaps it is not a Muslim country.

Contact me in a couple of years. Things they are a-changing.
