Yabbut, they never left the Roman Empire and thus were neither immigrants nor refugees.
That’s the rebuttal to that point I have heard anyway.
IANAL, but it seems to me that if you are running to another country to prevent the king of your own country from killing you, you’re a refugee.
I see what you did there.
Isaac said he kissed you
Beneath the apple tree
When Benjie held your hand he felt
E-lec-tri-ci-tee!
When Alexander called you
He said he rang your chimes.
Christopher discovered
You’re way ahead of your times!
From the ad:
“And while Pence isn’t the president of anyone’s dreams, he isn’t Donald Trump either. So there’s that,”
That may be one of the best examples of “damned with faint praise” that I’ve heard in a while. And it’s true.
Hey, every Real American knows Joseph and Mary were on vacation when Jesus was born. As for that manger that they stayed overnight in, why, it was a high-class manger! Better than the motels that Bethlehem had at the time.
A Canadian man is being denied entry into the US because https://www.cbc.ca/radio/asithappens/canadian-truck-driver-who-shares-last-name-with-iranian-general-says-he-can-t-cross-u-s-border-1.5438078"]he shares a last name with a dead Iranian general.

Go to your room.
Well, Trump is always inclined to used a wedge issue for leverage. Pulleying on heart-strings is in his wheelhouse.
There’s a lot of money to be made if trump can reinstate the patent on the wheel.
KarlGauss, for some reason your link isn’t working. Here’s one about the same story that should work:
Canadian truck driver who shares last name with Iranian general says he can’t cross U.S. border
it will not be long before you are alone out there
I’m not sure how I did that. Thanks for fixing it.
Well, sometimes when approaching the U.S. you have to ask “can I come near?” and answer all their questions, because there are soleimani things that you can tell them, there are soleimani things they need to hear.
Vile scoundrel! Return to thine sleeping chambers and think deeply on what thou hast wrought.
Ow Big Daddy - you have me running from the shepherds with that one.
You somehow got a rogue set of [ url ] tags in there.
I harbour no wrath against thee; I am merely sorely consumed with regret that I, in my folly, adjudged thee to have achieved mastery over thine base impulses.
Tarry, judge not! For all his base impulse are belong to thee!
Yeah, I saw a lot of Trump supporters rolling out “They were travelling for a census! Read your Bible!” cluelessness. I know the Flight into Egypt is only in one of the Gospels (Matthew) but it’s not that obscure a story. As an agnostic I’ll admit to a certain petty enjoyment of schooling conservative Christians on Bible passages.
