RMS: "Rajoy (Spain's president) wants to kill us all."
Well there you go, Richard.
- dholowiski 14y agoThat's pretty much classic RMS.
- jsavimbi 14y agoWell, at least he just has some blood pressure that needs tending to. Even though I mostly disagree with the man's politics, I must say that it takes a smart prick to make a contextually accurate and funny joke in a foreign language at an indecisive moment like that.

- adrianb 14y agoPresident? I think you mean prime minister.
- jsavimbi 14y agoNo, I did not mean prime minister. In Spain, the head of state is the monarch and the head of the elected government is known as the "Presidente del Gobierno", or president of the government. Although a counterpart can be found in other parliamentarian systems such as the prime minister in the UK, the Spanish president of government is not primus inter pares but the undisputed head of the government.
