The males seem to have never learned how to flush a toilet.

Heck, most of them never even get to that point ... they don't seem to understand the mechanics of lifting the seat before they take a piss ...

Disgusting. Sir Winston was one of the most amazing men who ever lived.

18 to 24 year olds aren’t usually deep thinkers…….give them a few more years.

Articles like this are stupid.

Lady Astor:(to Churchill) “Sir if you were my husband I’d serve you a cup of poisoned tea every morning!’’

Churchill to Lady Astor: “Madame were I your husband I’d drink it by the gallon’’.

Great. I wonder why Churchill attracted so many great quotes by or about him and good anecdotes. Benjamin Franklin was another one.

How long will it take for Americans to forget that Brandon was ever President?

Likely because their schools either ignored him, or mostly taught "bad" things about him.

Only 20 years.

Imagine 20 years from now.
