Quotable Quotes

"This is not the act of a friend." ~ Australian PM Anthony Albanese #1,380
Broad generalization may lead us astray Mr. Prime Minister.
We can agree at the outset this is an exceedingly embarrassing segment of U.S. history, and foreign policy. Please don't take it personally.

"We have no eternal allies and we have no perpetual enemies. Our interest are eternal and perpetual, and these interest it is our duty to follow." Lord Palmerston 1848

I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America

one nation
under God,
indivisible,

This may take a while.
Until he graduates, good luck good friend.
