'Thank God, we are once more on British soil.'

- Winston Spencer Churchill, Montréal, on alighting from a Boston train, can't recall year ... [edit - Colombo's says 23 Dec 1900]

'fast and loose with facts' - they are facts John, and you know they're facts, don't you .... the fact that i have learned to type quickly and with relaxed fingers the words of them, does not take from them one iota of their factitude

There are myths, and then there are realities ... when there are posters pumping hard the myth of Inherent Perfection In Every Aspect of the regime in control of the world at the moment, as there are here on this thread, then it will be interpreted by others as time for some realities to come up

So here's another - Ronald Reagan not only hired argentino torturers to terrorise villagers who were minding their own g.d. business, but he also had under employment some narcotraficantes running cocaine into US cities to generate the funds with which to pay the torturers .... also he had others trading off arms to mad mullahs, mining harbours of centroamericanos, planting landmines to blow up children, and a great number of pursuits of this nature

He called these people, collectively, 'my boys'
