No southerner is going to condone a federalist.

Maybe no True southerner. But there are more northerners in the south than southerners!

Only in a few states.

I still fondly remember the rant Stewart fired off at the Democrats when they lost the Massachusetts senatorial special election.

One of quite a few, bur certainly one of the funniest.

Well literally it means to have fish to eat and and a **** to sit on, however, it's more or less "to have your cake and eat it too" to want everything with little to no personal sacrifice, etc etc. hopefully noone else has offered a meaning yet as i haven't read up to page 748 yet.

Sounds like a really beautiful place to live. I have not been to France for many years, but it remains as one of my favorite countries. I've been working again on learning to speak and read French, but I still struggle with it.

Sadly for you, it is supposed to be a very difficult language to speek it really well. But to be understood, i think it is manageable.
Good luck, and in case you doubt, just ask

Always wanted to learn french but i think i'd be better off learning something closer to russian. although i'm afraid of 2 close languages intermingling in my brain.

Afternoon by the way.

Sadly, i must confess that speaking french is of no use actually, except for tourism in France. But nothing more request to learn it by now. 3 century ago, sciences, philosophy, history, were all discussed in french.
Well, of course, 5 century ago it was in latin, and 20 century ago it was in ancient greek . Each era has it's main language.

And tourism in Belguim,Parts of Switzerland,and many other parts of Europe where French is a second language. Not to mention many parts of Africa, the middle east,some asia and about half of Canada.

About Canada.....well, Quebec is talking a old form of French. And sometimes, it is hard to understand for "modern" french (here, modern doesn't mean "better" but just "newest" ).
