none from churchill ?

I still like this from JFK, unfortunately, RATS never quote it:

“Let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, that we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe to assure the survival and the success of liberty. “

You might want to elaborate on “President Davis” since there is no such US President ... are you referring to Jefferson Davis? He was not the US President ... he was the President of the Confederacy.

Thank you! Thank you!
I’d like to thank all the little people for getting me here to accept this award!

And when I say little people, I mean the team full of midgets I employ....Since they are very angry all the time, I call them my little micro-aggressions....

I still wonder how these “Christians” hold their Bibles in one hand... and their slave in the other and slept at night.

I wonder, would you say that about something else? like Abortion for example? I think not.

I can see Commies doing this, because to them, the individual is nothing... but these ‘Christians” profess peace and love thy neighbor as they crack the whip.
