News / America's Tea Party like Poland's Solidarnosc? [59]

Does the Tea Party support the establishment or is against it, if it is against the establishement, then the Tea Party will be crashed like the left in the sixties.

Tea party supports the establishment...It is merely an updated sitcom called 'The Real Conservatives' or 'Red State, Blue State'...Neo-con and Zionist money has taken over Tea Party, and puppets like Glenn Beck have been hired to help co-opt it and the explain it to the public.

A few 'tea party' candidates may actually be reformers, but they are marginal...FED Reserve and Wall Street run America, in co-operation with global banking/corporate cartel.

Food / Polish placki v latkes (potato pancakes) [22]

BTW how do you like your placki: just salted, salt & sour cream (my choice), sugar, sugar & sour cream, other (apple sauce)? Or the Hungarian way as a base for goulash?

With ketchup, some pepper and hot sauce...They also good with Jamaican 'Pic-a-peppa' sauce, or an HP/Heinz 57 type sauce...I can eat them just with a vegetable, like green beans or broccoli, maybe a salad, and they make a meal.

News / America's Tea Party like Poland's Solidarnosc? [59]

Yes, Solidarity was a movement to gain better standard of living and working conditions for workers...It may have changed as 'infiltrators' came in...You may know more about this than me.

'Tea Party' is now simply a distraction used to 'co-op' certain conservative Americans who want a real change, by 'neo-con' operatives...And, your comment about the Koch brothers is right on...Not many know about these billionaire manipulators...Only a few articles in alternative press.

People, whether in USA, Poland or Europe believe what they are fed on TV, and that is mostly lies...It is important to go deeper and find out 'who really is who'...Politics is entertainment, like NFL or popular sitcoms...But as adults, we must understand what is a fairy tale and what is real.

News / America's Tea Party like Poland's Solidarnosc? [59]

“The strength of the Tea Party is in the fact that we are a spontaneous movement, which has many features in common with Poland‘s "Solidarity," Radtke told the Rzeczpospolita daily.

The 'Tea Party' has already been co-opted by outside forces including money from corporate contributors, Zionist elements, and the most regressive elements of the Republican Party...'Tea Party' is just a label, means nothing except as a television sound bite...Was 'Solidarity' the same as this?

History / Star shaped symbol on Polish Eagle? [22]

i hadn't noticed, but from now on i'll forever see a well hung eagle.

Ha, ha!...And why not?...'The Polish Eagle shoots fire from his prick, mowing down all enemies, and taming all wenches!'

History / Star shaped symbol on Polish Eagle? [22]

Okay what are these symbols that look like stars on the wings of the Eagle?

I would suggest the stars are symbolic of power, as they could also be viewed as fists...You may also notice the phallus with what could be fire issuing from it...Of course, it may also be an unknown object, framed by tail feathers.

History / Maus by Vladek Spiegelman - animals to represent Poles? [68]

You are a one-issue fascist (cousin of the communist)..

This is a childish reply...I don't ascribe to 'White Power' or any such silly ideology...However, I do think that Europeans and European-Americans need to be in touch with their history and roots, and not be silent in the face of media distortions...I first saw Spiegleman's cartoons many years ago, and feel they are a distortion...He is clever, but his work does not speak to me.

News / POLISH ART is not well represented in the West (especially in the US). Why? [25]

've already alerted you but you are a plastic pole which haven't even bothered to learn polish...

Thank you for your generous remarks, as they seem right in line with your pretensions...As you get older, who will hopefully learn to respect a person asking an honest question.

Now Alexander Gierymski is quite good, a realist but with a muted, impressionistic type of style...He worked in watercolors also...Matejko has a classic realistic style to his work, but the realism is in the sense that the human figures and surroundings he paints are not distorted...His themes are quite grand, outlining his impressions of history, mythology and religious matters...Both are certainly giants, but this work is rarely displayed in the West, let alone USA.

When I ask about artists, I mean current, contemporary Polish artists...Who do you like?...Who has something of interest to convey?

Here is work by Arthur Szyk, displaying an 'Orientalist' sensibility, illustrating Jewish oral history being transmitted...He also did 'social realist' work in the Communist 'poster mode', but of a high quality, with irony.

News / POLISH ART is not well represented in the West (especially in the US). Why? [25]

Jews control the 'art business' in America and much of the West...Notice, I say business...Most 'art' they sell or promote is absolute garbage..Jewish art is mostly, as they would say, 'dreck'...In fact, most modern visual art is sh**...Please alert me as to any worthwhile Polish visual artists, either in USA or elsewhere....Please.

One very good artist from Poland in the last century was a Jew...His name is Szyk.

History / Maus by Vladek Spiegelman - animals to represent Poles? [68]

C'mon...F*** 'Maus' and Art Spiegelman, too...Any good Polish cartoonists?...This, I am interested in.

Oh, and one more thing: Bulldoze Auschwitz...Don't announce it, just do it...Jews upset?...Too bad...They have money, they can build a replica in Israel...Or Germany...Germans built it, and they have plenty money, they can build replica in Germany if they are so guilt stricken...Why bring innocent Jewish children to Poland every year and fill their heads with hate about Poles?...Why?...Poland split like a piece of meat by both Germans and Russians...Only ones who profit from this abomination today are greedy Polish and Jewish travel agents...That page in history over...Finito, baby...Let's move on.

Law / Investors/Entrepreneurs.. Steer Clear of Poland. [77]

My business partner and friends can't believe all the trouble that I have gone through. They are actually embarrassed that it is so difficult for a foreigner to live and set up a business.

You don't say where you are from originally...Me, I Polish-American, live in USA, so I can't really speak on specifics of Polish bureaucracy, but you bring up what I think are universal problems in the West...BTW, you post is one of the best I've ever seen here.

Now, with utility companies, city bureaucrats and the like, same problems exist here in USA, sometimes better sometimes worse depending on where you live...I live in Philadelphia, and city bureaucrats bad here...You start business, you must do this, do that, get zoning permits, have to deal with bureau of licenses & inspections...However, not nearly as bad as what you speak of...Maybe this is a result of Communism, supposedly 'worker's paradise' but actually 'worker's hell' because any honest dedicated work is viewed with suspicion and envy...Communism a system of parasites, never do honest day's work in life, and the goal is to never do any in future...So, even after fall of Communism, most likely same mindset exists...But, if what you say is true, then Poland will go to 'dustbin' of history, because only a productive country, with a business friendly environment can prosper...And you, you come to Poland and INVEST, yet parasites view you with jealousy...See, as I get older, I find world is like a kindergarten, some never grow up...These are the types you seem to deal with.

On workers, here you must use wisdom and some strategy...You hire young workers so you don't have to pay tax...OK...But remember that young people need guidance, and some need constant supervision...Use the whip hand when needed, but don't pick on them constantly for little things, even if it cost you a few złoty...Work, of almost any type, must be fun sometimes, and it sounds like both you and employees don't have any fun...Perhaps hiring someone older, experienced in food service would help balance things out.

But it is good you stick it out...Sometimes it is darkest before the dawn.

Now for work ethic, let me tell you about me first GOOD job...I was 16-17, and a Ukrainian
friend of mine got me a job at Jewish deli where he also work...The owners were the Kaplan brothers, Meyer & Eddie...Meyer the 'good cop', he handle deli, dish out corned beef, lox, bagles, and he perfect for job, weighing about 300 pounds, big, jovial...Eddie was money guy, don't smile much, but he keep books in order, 'bad cop'...Eddie the one you give you hell when you f*** up.

My job was dishwasher, porter, busboy and anything else need be done...Every night I wash and unload 10-20 loads of dishes in dish machine, stack all plates in proper place & silverware...THEN, I scrub all the pots and baking pans, for briskets, turkey, corned beef etc...BIG NASTY job, scrub my hands raw, but I do it all, pans look good when I'm done...THEN, if it is busy and waitresses busy, I bus tables...I also take special plates and pans to cooks whenever they need it, and get supplies from basement...THEN, every night, I take out between 10-12 full buckets of garbage, empty into dumpster...This anywhere from 500 to 1200 pounds of garbage a night...HALF A TON, and I do it all by hand, by myself...THEN, last thing, I sweep and mop whole deli area, restaurant, and kitchen...Then I'm done...My pay?...This 1970, and I work maybe 32 hours per week...I take home maybe $125 a week...MAN, I loved it because $125 good money then, and I still in high school...Also, a cook there sell me Vietnamese weed, plus other 'things' and I make money from that..HA!!!...But, see, the cook was a WORKER, never miss a shift, and he keep whole kitchen in line...And we keep our dealings very discreet, never interfere with work.

But point I make is I WAS THRILLED TO HAVE CHANCE TO WORK as I never have to ask parents for money for anything...My dad was lenient, he say 'You work for it, you keep it: House paid off, we don't charge you rent or board...Work'.

See?...But kids today just don't understand work and discipline in many cases...I can understand this if you work for big chain, but if they work up close & personal for someone like you, they must show discipline and WORK...A little fun, now & then, yes, but when time to work, THEN WORK...

Good luck with bureaucrats, baby.

UK, Ireland / The slow, whiny death of British Christianity [86]

Europe will be put to the sword more but if people don't blame the War on Terror on Christians (as they shouldn't do) then it should, ceteris paribus, maintain its popularity.

WOT a creation of neo con Jews to get Christians and Muslims at each others throats...Also, any true religious faith, or belief in God, is not a popularity contest, but matter of faith...Non-believers of course have right to their 'non-faith'...What makes me very angry is the fact that these attacks on the faith are always given high priority in press, while the enormous amount of Christian believers, and their acts, are consigned to the memory hole...But, 'there is nothing new under the sun'...Also, many people get distorted picture from media that 'Christian Zionists' or 'Evangelicals' represent the Christian church...Not true, but fostered by media to disparage Christ Himself.

UK, Ireland / The slow, whiny death of British Christianity [86]

It's maybe not dying, no, but waning in popularity according to the stats, Joe.

Stats, Seanus?...Who votes in these polls?...As Stalin said: 'It doesn't matter how many people vote, it is who counts the votes that matter.'...Also, we obviously live in different neighborhoods.

UK, Ireland / The slow, whiny death of British Christianity [86]

Christianity is not dying, and won't...This is the fervent wish of atheists, haters of God and others on the Forum...But don't hold your breath waiting because of what some smarmy British atheist tells you...Remember the old saw: 'There are no atheists in foxholes'...And when you go down into your own personal foxhole, you will understand the truth of this...If your belly is full, you have some 'jingle' in your pocket, and the cable TV works, who needs God, right?...Maybe you have some books by French post-modernists or deconstructionists, too...Good luck, baby.

News / New cross war in Warsaw [530]

Gladly they are in the USA... in the very right place for christian fundamentalist. Tell them not to go back.

You talk nonsense...Christian Fundamentalist?...Define it in your own terms in an intelligent way, and I respond....Also, I speak of the Catholic Church in my post...But, you hate that, too.

Perhaps you confuse American Christians with 'Christian Zionists'...They are simply one part of business partnership with Israelis.

I tell you the truth: it bodes ill for the future...Poles VERY HARD HEADED AND HEARTED sometimes.

And I tell you something else: New Polish immigrants to the USA not like this...They fill the church, yes.

News / New cross war in Warsaw [530]

Why so many Jews and mockers of Christ on this forum?...Is this a reflection of modern Polish society or merely an Internet aberration?...If this is Poland's future, as they say, 'fughettaboutit'.

Actually, Jews I can understand because of what the rabbis teach...But the others?

Poland is a Christian country...Object to crosses?...Then object to the glorification of Oswerciem as a continuing 'religious' symbol of the new false religion of 'holocaustianity'.

News / Nigel Farage voice of reason for Poland and EU? [79]

Farage the guy who went after Belgian EU bigwig, right?...He had point, but I heard interview with him on Alex Jones show, and he sound like blowhard, bad as Jones...But I would need to check out his writings and positions more, see if he for real.
