I never thought the day would come. But here it is! Being an Armenian -- like playing women's basketball at Rutgers, losing money on Enron, and contracting AIDS in Africa before it -- is now relevant and topical. Hell, yes. I feel so damn temporarily important, and I wouldn't trade it for having sold steroids to sluggers or resisted arrest in Los Angeles or, for that matter, having rented storefront from Barney Frank. Bask, fellow Armenians! Bask. Ours is the world and all that's in it -- and, which is more, we'll have a hairy son.
Lest you've been comatose or going to history class at Princeton, the source of the spotlight is Congress's resolution to recognize the Armenian genocide of 1915 as "genocide." Turkey still insists it was merely a transportation malfunction, in which 1.5 million Armenians mysteriously vanished as piles of human carcasses appeared in their place.....

I’m an Armenian (you can tell by my screen name). I have to admit that I’m hot.
But whether its malaria or menopause, I’m not quite sure. The symptoms are very much the same.
Hey! Here in California, we elected an Armenian governor before Armenian was hot.
“we’ll have a hairy son.”
Don’t exactly know what to say in response to that.
“Here in California, we elected an Armenian governor before Armenian was hot.”
I bet you wish he was still governor, too, don’t you?
I’d take that deal, yeah.
Hey Mannix was Armenian and he was cool. High fives for cool PIs of the sixties and seventies. Too bad they killed the genre with the fat man PI. Loved David Jansen as Harry O, that and Rockford were my favorites. Got to love a guy who drives a MG Midget and lives next door to Farrah Fawcett.
Miss Armenia, 2001
I suspect that Pelosi is going for the twofer. By introducing this in the House, she guarantees that the war will become more difficult to win AND the Dems get more of the Armenian vote. I know many Armenians in SoCal and they are pretty conservative. Pretty funny article though. I’m glad he’s feeling good about the attention!
William Saroyan, known for his Capraesque celebrations of the human condition and American decency wrote a very dark essay, entitled, iirc, “A Million and a Half Armenians”. First I ever heard of the Armenian genocide.
Hold on while I pick my jaw up off the floor...
I’d hit that thing three times.
And it couldn't have come at a worse time for The Republic. :(

Jaw?
Stucco a wood framed house, surround it and all windows with iron bars...get the bratty boys brand new BMWs and check her for shankles.
I would marry her for a night.
I suspect that the Pubbies that voted for the resolution are in heavily Armenian districts. Everything is Political for the Dems.
She says okay, you can have her all night, but it will have to be June 20 in Barrow, Alaska. You have from 8 pm to 8:05 pm.
