Winston Churchill, the truly indispensable man of the 20th Century.
God knows we need one today.

Winston Churchill was truly one of the most remarkable men of modern times.

For once, I agree with Krauthammer. Churchill was the greatest person of the 20th century.

Churchill must be rolling over in his grave at how the country he saved has invited the enemy in, and is giving in in the name of political correctness.

Chartwell booksellers in NYC is dedicated to him. They have an interesting web site. Can’t afford many items.

I’m awaiting Obama’s Churchill Day statement.

Even before he became PM members of all parties would stop what they were doing to go listen to Churchill whenever he gave a speech in Parliament. Nobody could match his wit, humor, and trenchant commentary.

He was by no means perfect...no human is. But he was one of the few humans who stretched the limits of their abilities...his were immense.

"or as Kipling put it: 'Leave to live by no man's leave underneath the law' — these are common conceptions on both sides of the ocean among the English-speaking peoples."

English-Speaking Peoples!!! Sloooowly I turned...
I had to read his history of same, in homeschool. Did not appreciate. Fortunately it was followed by a study of his books on WW2 (six volumes). I now believe the idea was not to make me an expert on the war (and I'm not) but most efficiently to teach me modern history, English composition and literature from a single source. I still have numerous editions of Churchill's works. They're the reading equivalent of comfort food, to be picked up when I need to be picked up mentally.
Churchill rocks!

Why would Congress make a man who had an American mother an honorary citizen when he was already a natural born citizen on his mother’s side......./s

Interestingly enough I just read in the Daily Mail that the Archbishop of Cantebury was recently discovered to be the illegitimate son of Winston Chruchhill’s private secretary.

I can’t believe he was turned out in 1945 for gibsmedat socialist Clement Attlee, despicable.
