Only human I suppose. It seems to go with the power of high office. The newspapers etc. covered up for years the French President Mitterand. Collaborateur during the war and illegitimate children after etc. But as someone once said - scum floats to the top.

Plenty of GOLD DIGGERS around and not only stateside. An old wealthy Admiral friend at the age of 85 married a GD and in 10 years he was dead and broke. He even confided shortly before his end to a mutual friend, that " there is no fool like an old fool ".

Entertaining though. But don't worry folks the all US heroes emerge relatively unscathed to bonk and grope another day. Bill could have gone down in the history books as one of the US's great presidents if it wasn't for his sexual appetite and lack of self control. He did leave the country in an...

Just to state the obvious - there are far too few controls on what the President can do. If Congress had anyone with balls they would be reining in Trump. Congress should decide if the US goes to war. Not a dick head.

Henry Ford senior broke the back of Unionism in the USA by employing thugs like his no.2 Bennett in the 1930s. There is a lot wrong with Unions but a lot right as well.

Some very insightful comments that provoke serious thought on this controversial topic. THANKS

In this world there are 2 types of people. The takers and the givers.

Perhaps trading the long view like Buffett is sensible. Keep the day job and invest in Indexes. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/money/indexinvesting/article-5446465/What-Warren-Buffett-learnt-ten-year-tracker-bet.html

It is high time the US workers stood up for their rights. The top execs are pocketing umpteen millions and screwing the workers.

There was this guy in Wall Street who had just lost a pile of money. He was sitting 10 floors up on the window ledge, ready to jump. The market had dropped all morning wiping out his over extended position. He pushed off into space and as he fell he called out...………………………………………………………...

The only hell can be on earth. The Pope lives in a luxury palace with lots of flunkeys, the food he likes most etc. He has no problems. A lot of that money raised to pay for his life of ease could be better spent on the poor and needy. Let the clergy live by what they preach to be appreciated...

The tragedy is people say Russians or Americans etc. The general public never get a say in events. It is always the small elite at the top driven by greed and fear. Being a student of history I feel some sympathy with the Russian people and what they have had to endure from Ivan the Terrible to...

They were always meddling and trying to cause trouble. Such as Cuba, Afghanistan, Vietnam, Europe, North Korea etc. Back in the 1960s there was one Commie Brit who used to collect suitcases of cash from the Russian Embassy to bribe British workers to strike. British Leyland and others collapsed.

The USSR did come up with one good slogan and that was "Peaceful Coexistence ". They didn't follow it much themselves but it sounded good. Capitalism reduces everything to money and greed.

The advantage of Royalty is that they have plenty of money and need not be like the money grubbing politicians. They can afford to be decent, fair and environmental activists unlike politicians. They are good for tourism. Republics are rather stuck with either awful dictators or crummy Presidents.

Know your feelings but consider the alternatives. In the ole West it was probably a bullet in the back from the baddie's hired gunman. I can just see a " high noon "stand-off with pistols between Trump and Kim. Wonder who would win ? I expect Putin would fancy his chances and the publicity of...

I expect Meghan's ex is wondering what all the fuss is about.

People should resist the political extremes. It is easy to see they talk big and murder bigger -mostly their own citizens as in Russia and China. The dictators have to murder their oppositions or get murdered. So they don't mind how many have to go as long as they survive. It is better imho if...

The US didn't suffer much homeland damage in the 2 World Wars but now it is different with missiles and H bombs. Now everybody is in the front line. Politicians are isolated and in Trump's case just say what pops up in their brains. He has shown his contempt for near neighbours Canada and...

The Royals were so paranoid about Communism after what happened in Russia and nearly happened in Germany in the 1920s that they thought a strong right wing Germany would hold back the Red tide. Beside the fact that they were German Hanoverians and spoke German together in the 19th century.
