Obama hated people who loved their country. He wanted us all to be citizens of the world.

Seems Churchill had some of the same insights into Bolshevik history as Solzhenitsyn

Perhaps a good place to post my favorite Churchill quote:

“If you will not fight for right when you can easily win without blood shed; if you will not fight when your victory is sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves.”

Let's hope Trump can steer the ship of state sufficiently well to keep it from capsizing while we bail, patch, and hang the mutineers.

<>He (Obama) enabled a massive Islamschluss that has made the nation and world much more dangerous.<>

Methinks President Trump will press congress to work with him to reverse the muzzie invasion.

Great article. Thanks for posting.

On a side note, anyone else notice that the recently released Trump doctrine called out Sharia law by name?

Ha!!!

The Nazis and Soviets never recruited people to crash airliners into buildings in New York City, or run down civilians with a truck.

The writer seems to overlook the long history of Soviet espionage against this country.

Consider the Manhattan Project. A country that could barely build enough tanks and planes in WWII and could not feed itself was somehow able to develop the bomb in just four years after the US. And we had practically every nuclear scientist on the planet working for us.

“Never give in—never, never, never, never, in nothing great or small, large or petty, never give in except to convictions of honor and good sense. Never yield to force; never yield to the apparently overwhelming might of the enemy.”

This quote hangs on my office wall where my clients can plainly see it.

On his first day in office, Barack Obama removed a bust of Winston Churchill from the Oval Office. Donald Trump promptly returned it to the Oval Office.

Americans can rejoice at the prospects of one of their daughters' becoming a member of the British Royal Family. However, if Prince Harry should lend his support to the man who removed the bust of Churchill and withhold it from the man who returned it, he will succeed only in making the American People despise him.

“Americans can rejoice at the prospects of one of their daughters’ becoming a member of the British Royal Family. However, if Prince Harry should lend his support to the man who removed the bust of Churchill and withhold it from the man who returned it, he will succeed only in making the American People despise him.”

The pain would go deeper than that. Harry’s mother, and Harry himself, are of the same bloodline as Churchill. Winston Spencer Churchill and Diana Spencer Windsor were cousins.

I think that Ozero’s hatred of Churchill had more to do with his Kenyan supposed-to-be father vs. Churchill’s opposition to the Mau Mau in Kenya, and also Churchill’s attitude toward the RoP.

Yes. The pain would be profound.

If the British Royal Family--or in particular Prince Harry--should levy an insult to President Trump, it would be a profound insult to the America People, to Winston Churchill, to the American men who saved Great Britain from the Nazi conquest, and far more.

If Great Britain should give its support to a fifth column in America that intends to destroy the USA from within, it would end the Trans-Atlantic Alliance--to say nothing of American support for Great Britain and British institutions.

Obama hates himself. He hates being 1/2 black. Obama projects his evil hate on the world.

Despite Churchill’s bad jokes, Roosevelt was unabashed in his adoration of the Prime Minister. He once told Churchill’s closest Royal Navy commander, Charles Thompson, to take care of his friend: “He’s about the greatest man in the world. In fact he may very likely be the greatest.”
