"German Shepherd Dog." A German shepherd is a person who shepherds sheep in Germany. A "German Shepherd Dog" is the breed of dog. Try to differentiate between the two. It is an important distinction to be made. e.g. You don't say you drink "Irish," when you want to say that you drink "Irish liquor."

I think it's called "Irish Liquid Dog".

Unless you're a vampire. Does a vampire get drunk if he drinks the Irish? Probably in more cases than not.

Racist minister voluntarily leaves office after the far-left Red Party representative puts forward a proposition for a no-confidence vote. Yesterday was a good day for the Red Party (which gained a lot of new members as a result) and everyone in Norway who is sick of openly racist rhetoric being spread from the high seats of government. Listhaug has been lauded by racist and fascist groups since she took office as Minister of Immigration and Integration in 2015. For instance, the neo-nazi group Vigrid has stated that they would raise a statue of her "when they have gained power in Norway". They also sent flowers to her office this week after the Facebook scandal.

One reactionary minister down, several more to go...

"Dog" shouldn't be capitalized.

The famous Guinness Terrier. Every pub in Ireland has one. Great for chasing people out of the bar when it's closing time.

Sure. Ain't you never heard of "Abandoned Interview with the Vampire and Went to the Pub"? Or "The Drunk Vampire Diaries?" And what about "Buffy the Hungover Vampire Slayer?"

If a dog wants to be capitalist, it has that right.

Congrats. Usually when I hear about political changes in various European nations, it's moving in a more reactionary direction.
