I read somewhere here, that Michele’s still pissed at the Brits over the slavery issue. They *really* need to get over it, if they plan on truly governing this nation. (Yes, I meant “they”)

I read somewhere an article speculating why Obama was not a fan of Churchill. Seems Churchill is not the beloved statesman and WW2 hero in Kenya because of his role in putting down the Maumau rebellion there.
