Patterson : We hate the Chinese Commo's , for hoisting their BAT PLAGUE onto an innocent world. Also , for their straight out LYING , on what now appears to be all matters

Which Thunderbird does this puppet fly?

This made me clutch my pearls.

Aus. should change the laws on dual citizenship. To get Australian citizenship you should have to revoke any other nationality.

I’d take this story seriously if wasn’t confused or frightened by the pictured young boy.
