Wilson was a good Communist, and we all know that Communism is NEVER about empire, now don’t we?

Woodrow Wilson is unquestionably among the top ten worst Presidents in US history.

Maybe even among the top five.

Yes sir-eee. We have a Wilson clone in the WH. Micromanage in order to stall a decision and end up on both sides of the argument. While thousands suffer and die.

(By the way - another of her books, the Zimmerman Telegram, likewise shows what an idiot Wilson was)

Wilson's thinking was muddled long before his series of strokes.

My family knew him back when he married a cousin of ours in Rome GA in the 1880s (her family's plot is next to ours in the old cemetery west of town).

Nobody liked him, you should have heard my great-aunt and grandmother feeling sorry for his first wife and declaring that he got what he deserved in his second (nobody cared for her either, apparently).

He really was a very unlikeable person and not very bright to boot. Hard work and determination without any underlying character or intelligence may get you someplace, but it's probably not where you ought to be.

Women voters... don’t get me started. And there are a lot of women who recognize the problem as much as we do.

I have not read that one. It is now on my To-Read-List.

Thanks Llevrok!

With Progressives the Ends justify the means, you should look up where the Term "Can't Make an Omelet without Breaking some eggs" came from.

It was the Bastard Walter Durante who said that about the Starvation in the Ukraine in 1933.

If it is about justice why didn’t he act 3 years ago?
Why did he do nothing when Iran was slaughtering it’s people?

FUBO!

Bill Scher compares Barak Obama with Woodrow Wilson as if that were a good thing.

It's more about ego at this point than anything else.

Exactly.

Justice...?

Sher's hero Obama even refused to send the poor Syrian refugees gas masks.

Now he wants to start a war.

Is it any wonder that the British decided to bail...?

It’s nothing like Bush, cause, well, Bush was BUSH! Evil, man! A republican! Darth Cheney! H-a-l-I-b-u-r-t-o-n!!!! Papa Bush!

On the other hand, St. Barack, would-be father of St Trayvon, the Child, MEANS well! His HEART is in the right place, even if a lot of innocents get killed...

You've nailed the RAT mindset perfectly.
