We cannot be bought, we are lefties on the feet, we are lefties on the hands, and we are lefties on the mind. That has to be known by the people, that we say the truth, that we want equality, and that we don't want the Yankee flag planted on us.

Three guys from the morgue took selfies with Maradona and it looks like 2 of 3 have been murdered by the Boca Junior Ultras.

No, I was more interested in what you intended by saying 'murdered'. If you were just having one of your odd little laughs, forget I said anything.

As long as he endorsed humane tax schemes & believed government had a duty to take stolen wealth from capitalists & build free clinics & free housing with it... he can smoke as many cubans on as many yachts as he damn well pleases. :thumbup:

ETA: also, someone like him raising visibility on apartheid in the “Holy Land” & on US foreign policy as a whole, probably does empower a lot of people.

Unfortunately, his West Country accent was not deemed suitable for the part of a menacing Hollywood villain and his lines were dubbed.

Elwood?

There's 106 miles to Chicago, we've got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark out, and we're wearing sunglasses.
