AHA-gate: AEI vindt Hirsi ongeschikt als onderzoekster

Marc,

Could it be "two wrongs don't make a right"?
Kijk dit is een CONSERVATIEVE "THINKTANK", met een
volkomen eigen agenda. Als de werkelijkhied niet
strookt met de feiten, verander je de feiten naar jouw
werkelijkheid.
Dat is endemic voor deze thinkthank, en het is in het
geheel niet zo merkwaardig dat Hirshi daar niet
inpast.

Zo jouw hahahaha zegt meer over jezelf, ook wel
gloating genoemd, dan over de workability of een
huwelijk tussen deze organisatie (rechts van djenghis
Kahn) en Hirshi's redelijk normale stokpaardjes..
