Iceland pulling a fast one on the US

[Fz6Sa]

Just as we saw Obama being the first black president, Iceland does one better:

The new Prime Minister of Iceland, Johanna Sigurdardottir, is a Lesbian and married to a woman.

She is the first Lesbian state-leader in the world

 

[Stumbles06]

That's pretty cool, good to see some nations not being predjudiced against things like that.

Just to clear up, it's Iceland (had to google Johanna to find it... lol.)

Just as we saw Obama being the first black president, Island does one better:

The new Prime Minister of Island, Johanna Sigurdardottir, is a Lesbian and married to a woman.

She is the first Lesbian state-leader in the world

First of all Obama is just as white as he is black; his mother is white. Second point; is ISLAND a real country? Pardon my ignorance but even it was a country of some significance who cares if Johanna is married to a woman. I mean does that really make her the first "state-leader in the world lesbian"? She may be out of the closet but that does not make her the first lesbian. I'm sure there are other lesbian leaders (in and out of the closet).

I just caught the folly when you said ISLAND you meant Iceland. Same land, different ICE. LOL

Gotta love the Scandinavian Blondes.

She NOT the first GAY leader, - the first GAY leader was Per-Kristian Foss, who was acting Prime-minister in Norway for a short period in 2002.

But she is the first Lesbian.

Yes, Iceland is a real country. (Was part of Denmark until 1918).

Nice try smart-alec.

You initially wrote ISLAND at 5:33PM then changed it to ICELAND during your edit at 5:41PM.
Trying to be smart about it and proving Iceland is a country via Wikipedia is just a low blow. I'm just sayin man.

Sorry about that typo, - it's spelled "Island" in Danish, - guess the fact that it's 3am here is getting to me

Was not really trying to be smart ....,- Just made a typo, did not realise it until it was to late, then corrected my typo to stop others from getting the wrong Idea.

I estimate that in 100-200 years the US will have a single(not married) president, and in another 100-200 years the US will have a female president, and then in another 100-200 years the US will have an athiest president, then finally in another 100-200 years, we will have a gay/lesbian president.

Progress.

Before then, Arnold is going to run for Senate. Then he will try to push forward a new amendment allowing naturalized citizens to run for President.

He'll be back.

Do you think it'll happen that soon? This seems like an optimistic timeline

He was president in Demolition Man. The 64th amendment allowed it.

Pretty sure we have had an unmarried president. James Buchanan.

And, sorry to all you who hate others proving a point with wikipedia, I could find something more "meaningful" but I'm lazy and don't want to dig through all the junk that came up on Google.

WikiAnswers - Was James Buchanan the only bachelor President

I look at Obama as the first mixed race President and his wife as the first true black person to live in the white House. That must be a Trivial persuit question before long.

There is nothing wrong having a female leader either. Margret Thatcher proved that women can be tough when they need to be. Thank god she was in charge for the Falklands.

Denmarks next Premier could be a woman...and a tasty one at that.

I don`t care if they are Gay, straight, black, white christian or muslim as long as they can do the job correctly.

Yeah, you sure wouldn't have wanted to lose those frozen, bird **** covered rocks down there in the antarctic!

I love people who have no idea what they are talking about.

First of all British Royal Marines had been taken prisoner by the Argentinians so going down to get our guys back was a good idea.

Secondly, the inhabitants of the Falklands choose to be British citizens, so we were also repatriating our own citizens.

Third, the oil and gas reserves around the Falkands belong to Britain when we decide to harvest them.

Fourth, The Falklands have significant military significance in the South Atlantic.

Fifth, It is a well known fact that us Britis like rock covered S&&t in the middle of nowhere.

I have to admit that when Maggie said pack your bags you are going to the Falklands, we had to look at a map because we had no idea where it was.

There is some justification in going to war when you know for certain what the reason is for going.
