A huge differential

This year Islam and Judaism's holiest holidays overlapped for 10 days.

But the differential between them was huge: Muslims racked up 397 dead bodies across 10 countries during Ramadan...while the Hebrews quietly worked on their 159th Nobel Prize.

If mothers ruled the world

While catching up on world events on FOX News, I saw FOX's report on Sally Field's Emmy award acceptance speech. But FOX News had to bleep parts of it!

In her bleeped Emmy acceptance speech Sunday night, Sally Field said:

Let's face it, if mothers ruled the world, there would be no god_ _ _ n wars in the firstplace.

Wow; I could almost see fire coming out of her eyes.

But this is such false premise. Have you ever seen a mother's reaction when someone tries to come between her and her children? War comes to mind.

Natural Exponent would like to remind Sally Field that there have been female heads of state, mothers, who have waged war. This can be found in any High School history book:

Israel's Golda Meir, India's Indira Gandhi, and Britain's Maggie Thatcher. These 3 mothers waged war in defense of their nation's sovereignty.
