JIMMY CARTER: "Well, as you may know, I had a policy when I was president of not selling weapons if it would exacerbate a potential conflict in a region of the world, and some of our allies were very irate about this policy. And I have to say that I was not, you know, as thoroughly briefed about what was going on in East Timor as I should have been. I was more concerned about other parts of the world then."
That sounds like a completely believable explanation to me. I can completely believe that that the military advisors didn't give him the full picture of what was happening there.
My rescue is fighting cancer and I dread waking up and finding out she's gone. It's become all about maintaining quality of life for her and it sounds like your boy had the best life. You gave him the best gift any human could give a dog.
My pessimistic side tells me that the judges see themselves as the same class as the CEOs. They can "overlook" a lot of problems with a case if they choose.
They might be counting on it pushing more people to subscribe to Prime to keep cheaper shipping. They have their own distribution system so they can do the last mile if they want.
When I found out my mom voted for Trump the first time, I didn't speak to her for a year. I only did then because she reached out to say she was wrong (a first for her).
When I explained (more like yelled) why I wasn't going to have anything to do with her, I told her in detail how she was betraying everything she raised me to be. She used to sponsor the LGBT club at the school where she worked and I told her she was betraying all those kids she said she cared about.
It isn't a choice between you and Trump. It is a choice between your dad being the type of man he raised you to be, or not.
They don't give a fuck about the last mile deliveries. Without USPS keeping prices low, they will be able to rank up what they charge. It's a dream for them.
It seems to me that what he did to Twitter was a dry run for what he is doing to the government. Buy it, gut it, and leave a useless shell populated by white supremacists.
It's not the same everywhere. Chicago has one of the biggest restaurant scenes in the country and there aren't any Native American restaurants. There are a few Mexican restaurants that do one or two traditional dishes, but that's it.
