@John McCann: Long ago!!

How utterly ridiculous.
We are globally corrupt
“evil” is winning and we are going backwards as a society in many ways
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha.
A bit like putting Iran on the UN Commission for Women’s Rights, the mind boggles. As the song goes “money talks”.
I’m sure personally, he’s a very honorable and intelligent gentleman who will carry out his duties to the best if his abilities. I wish him all the best.
“Lisa: Dad, I think he’s an ivory dealer! His boots are ivory, his hat is ivory, and I’m pretty sure that check is ivory.
Homer: Lisa, a guy who’s got lots of ivory is less likely to hurt Stampy than a guy whose ivory supplies are low.”
