From the article:

"Pictured: Jeannette Pickering Rankin in 1939, the first woman to hold national office in the United States. She argued against the fortification of Guam"

Jeanette Picklehead Rankin, shame of Montana, was the forerunner to Eleanor Roosevelt in every way, including stupid hats and an emetic ugliness.

And likely a taste, shall we say, for other (ugly) women.

Jeannette Ranking has the “distinction” of being the only member of Congress to vote against entering both World Wars. She was the only member to vote against war on Dec. 8, 1941.

Pictured: Rev Asbury Smith, another official who argued against fortifying the island. He represented the Maryland Keep Out of War Congress

Pictured: Jeannette Pickering Rankin in 1939, the first woman to hold national office in the United States. She argued against the fortification of Guam .

And, because of THEIR “pacifism” against a brutal foe, the article adds the following quote.

Pictured: The Americans lost more than 1,700 men in the fight to reclaim the island and the Japanese lost over 18,000

"Give peace a chance." We did. Kim explicitly rejected "Peace", and is building the nuclear weapons he has pledged to use over American cities. How many millions more deaths will result in from Lenin's (er, Lennon's) word's?
