    Gehgoeson, a little off-message, aren't you, with Barack claiming that he's a citizen of the world.

    You write about two unknowns (outside the USA) who trashed a little old nun, Mother Theresa. I know about plummy-voiced Hitchens but he's no great shakes either.

    I can't see what point you're trying to make although, of course, I know that you're part of THE ONSLAUGHT. Maybe you're suggesting that Mother Theresa made loadsamoney during Prohibition, maybe you're hinting that she was a Nazi-appeaser just like good old Joseph, or, such is the cryptic nature of your comment, you're suggesting that she went out one night with a young woman, for some fun and frolics, and left her to drown when the car ran off the road. The Keenedys are fakes and so is Joe Biden. I don't believe the little Albanian nun, Mother Theresa, was.
