I'm reading Shell (which is actually "Royal Dutch Shell plc") no longer has those...... and that would be a British-Dutch corp, not American. Point that finger the other way bud  Good discussion though, have a good night. Had no idea that Shell was British/Dutch. Can't let you off the hook though. Exxon has the West Qurma field. And that's all I'm saying because I'd just prefer to watch you fella's dig into Trump, today. But I welcome his announcement to withdraw troops from Syria. Well done, Trump, you massive twat. I was never looking to get off the hook. I know as well as anyone that our country engages in dirty tactics, covert and non-covert, around the world. But we do so because that's how the world operated when we became a country of our own. We're just playing the game that every other country had already been playing before we came along. Personally, I'd love to have all of our boots on the ground come home. But it needs to be done responsibly and in a way where there is support for those people live there (not just rebels, militants and other freedom fighters). Leaving now is just giving the region to Russia and Iran, wrapped in a bow. It also creates another incubator for another terrorist group to form or re-group. Not learning the lessons of the past simply exceeds ignorance. It's a horrible idea the way Trump is doing it Joe. |

Will mean nothing to non-UK-ers, but sad to hear about the passing of Paddy Ashdown yesterday. A fair influence on me - as he was dragging the Liberal Democratic party from a very low base to a genuine 3rd party back in the years that I was awakening politically. Served his country as a member of the Special Boat Service before switching to politics. His breed are sadly lost to us now... self serving political professionals & rich people looking to further entrench their advantage are all we get these days...

Didn't realise Ronnie Reagan was so dis-liked internally!

Can you imagine the Donald involved in the which clubs debate? š®
Been āinterestingā to watch the DOW strength slowly collapse this year in the face of his trade wars and many other provocative actions.... when itās going up (for the last 8 years) itās entirely because of him and when it goes down (under his presidency alone) itās absolutely someone elseās fault. What a surprise....

#1337 in the ongoing series of "seriously weird things for a President to do or say"...
"Hello, is this Coleman? Merry Christmas. How are you? How old are you?.... Are you doing well in school? Are you still a believer in Santa? Because at seven, it's marginal, right?"

Kids believe there's a Santa.
Trump supporters believe there's a president.

The "all alone (poor me)" tweet was a really sad attempt at getting people to feel sorry for him? I know I saw news stories from the day before that Melania left Mar-A-Lago to be with him at the WH since he wasn't going to there. Ah yes, the good ol' Liar In Chief.
I guess people love being lied to. I had no idea.

A 10% raise when in reality it is 2.6%, c'mon, anybody who voted for this arsehat, tell me why you still support a lying piece of dog feces like this?
