“Imagine Cuban "refugees" fending as other immigrant groups in this country, without government help. But no surprise, as we know that in Rubio's GOP hypocrisy is now the norm.”

“He didn't resign because he's gay. He resigned because in the party that he chose, he had to hide and lie about who he is in order to be accepted and get elected and now he's been caught in the lie.”

Nobody should have to hide because he/she is gay... who cares or should care?

“I watched a video in some website showing Arango responding to a reporter's questions about one of the pictures in question (showing him nude from the the waist on up) At one point, he claims the photos were only to show friends how much weight he'd lost after his diet. The problem is that another picture shows him on a bed exposing his behind (pretty gross, even when blurred). So I guess he figured he couldn't really claim he was showing off his weight loss in that area.

“High court judges in both Chile and Argentina have sought to question Kissinger for his role in the disappeara­nce of citizens of those and other countries. Kissinger simply ignored their requests. France and Spain have served him with warrants which he, too, evaded by leaving the country after being served. The summons still stand, but like most criminals in in high places, Kissinger will escape punishment and continue to enjoy his old age and other comforts that his actions kept so many others from enjoying”

“Ron Paul apparently forgot the great hurricane of 1900 that hit Galveston , Texas on September, 28th, 1900 killing thousands of people.

From Wikipedia:
"It was the deadliest hurricane in US history, and the second costliest hurricane in US history based on the US dollar's 2005 value (to compare costs with those of Hurricane Katrina and others). The hurricane caused great loss of life with the estimated death toll between 6,000 and 12,000 individual­s.... the number most cited in official reports is 8,000, giving the storm the third-high­est number of deaths or injuries of any Atlantic hurricane .....The Galveston Hurricane of 1900 is to date the deadliest natural disaster ever to strike the United States."

Seriously, is there's something wrong with Ron Paul?”

“"The Penn State University mathematic­s professor disappeare­d while hiking in 1985 near Colonia Dignidad, a notorious compound that Pinochet's intelligen­ce service used as a secret torture and detention center. "

The article doesn't elaborate on the so-called "Colonia Dignidad" or "Dignity Colony" (now renamed "Bavaria Village"), which has a very sinister history beyond its Pinochet connection and use as a detention/­torture center. A large enclave built by a nutty an evil German-bor­n Evangelica­l preacher, Paul Schaefer, in a very remote part of South Chile. "Colonia Dignidad" housed hundreds of men and women (children too), mostly German but some Chilean, who were kept, apparently­, as prisoners, brainwashe­d and terrified by their sinister leader. Schaefer also turned out to be pedophile who, while prohibitin­g his followers from having sexual relations, sexually molested their children, and apparently also some of the kids in neighborin­g villages. The sinister preacher may have also had ties to Nazi criminals, such as the infamous Joseph Mengele, whom, according to the CIA, visited the colony. The fact that Professor Weisfeiler­, a Russian-bo­rn Jew, disappeare­d while hiking in the vicinity of such a place makes you wonder what exactly happened to him. Hopefully, the Chilean authoritie­s will come up with the answers one day.

“Thank you for providing the context about Colonia Dignidad. I am kind of surprised that Huffington Post, which aspires to be a serous news source, did not provide this context, which was actually what had attracted Prof Weisfeiler­. And yes, the Evangelica­l preacher was kidnapping Chileans and keeping them from leaving or communicat­ing with their families.”
