I'll take one of Prof Squeeg.
No, I'm sure Chamberlain is on their naughty list because after the war started he wised up and admitted he was wrong. The Pinkos will never admit they are wrong no matter how many people they get killed.
BTW- we are getting a bunch of nerf guns for Christmas- that is enough to drive my neighbor wild! (socialist!)
My kid really prefers GI Joe. But wé're trying to find some kind of action-figure toy that isn't made in China. I have a very politically-aware young conservative gentleman here and he does not want toys from our enemies. This is a problem.
Hilarious story. Thanks. Here's an exerpt, which somehow reminds me of Code Pink, Squeegee Boy and the rest:
_______________________________________________
"This box with a slit in it is a ballot-box. Votes are put into it at election times."
"What is put into it at other times?" asked Bertie.
"Nothing. And here are some tools of industry, a wheelbarrow and a hoe, and... a ventilator, for ventilating sewers. This seems to be another municipal dust-bin -- no, it is a model of a school of art and public library. This little lead figure is Mrs. Hemans, a poetess, and this is Rowland Hill, who introduced the system of penny postage. This is Sir John Herschel, the eminent astrologer."
"Are we to play with these civilian figures?" asked Eric.
"Of course," said Harvey, "these are toys; they are meant to be played with."
"But how?"
It was rather a poser. "You might make two of them contest a seat in Parliament," said Harvey, "and have an election --"
"With rotten eggs, and free fights, and ever so many broken heads!" exclaimed Eric.
"And noses all bleeding and everybody drunk as can be," echoed Bertie, who had carefully studied one of Hogarth's pictures.
"Nothing of the kind," said Harvey, "nothing in the least like that. Votes will be put in the ballot-box, and the Mayor will count them -- and he will say which has received the most votes, and then the two candidates will thank him for presiding, and each will say that the contest has been conducted throughout in the pleasantest and most straightforward fashion, and they part with expressions of mutual esteem. There's a jolly game for you boys to play. I never had such toys when I was young."
As my mother would sing to us, "Praise the Lord and pass ammunition and we'll all be free".
I was having one or two specially made last Christmas...
and am blessed beyond belief this Christmas
as one will be sitting next to my Christmas tree, and our other (we hope and pray) is safely on the way home.
Giving humble, humble thanks for all peacemakers, everywhere.

Thanks for the ping. Business must be slow for squeegee guy as the temperatures are running below freezing.
Once again the Doctor of Freep shows why he is the Doctor of Freep.
The gunner is closest to Dustin because Dustin also operated a 50 cal machine gun, although Dustin's was mounted on a vehicle.
And yet he, and his fellow Pinkos, claim to support the troops that they call "murderers" and "killers."
And of course miniature Bibles. I mean, it is a prayer vigil [wink] after all.
Which ones terrorize innocent women and children? Oh that's right, they all do.
Candles?
bttt
The all-knowing, all-seeing, all-powerful Admin Mods have done a terrific job for you Dr.R..you better send them all a Christmas Card with a $50 Outback Gift Certificate.
