WINSTON CHURCHILL
THE GREATEST STATESMAN IN HUMAN HISTORY
Churchill’s quotes:
"There is no such thing as a good tax."
"Some see private enterprise as a predatory target to be shot, others as a cow
to be milked, but few are those who see it as a sturdy horse pulling the wagon."
"The inherent vice of capitalism is the unequal sharing of blessings; the
inherent virtue of socialism is the equal sharing of miseries."
"We contend that for a nation to tax itself into prosperity is like a man
standing in a bucket and trying to lift himself up by the handle."
"An appeaser is one who feeds a crocodile—hoping it will eat him last."
"Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of
envy."
"You ask, What is our policy? I will say; “It is to wage war, by sea, land and
air, with all our might and with all the strength that God can give us: to wage
war against a monstrous tyranny, never surpassed in the dark lamentable
catalogue of human crime. That is our policy.” You ask, What is our aim? I can
answer with one word: Victory—victory at all costs, victory in spite of all
terror, victory however long and hard the road may be; for without victory there
is no survival".
Obama sends a bust of Churchill back to the UK.
WHAT KIND OF A MAN COULD DO THIS?
The British Government, possibly our only true friend in the world, sent a bust of Winston Churchill to the American People after 9/11. President Bush placed it in the Oval office. Last month, Obama chose to send it back, taking it out of the White House and telling Prime Minister Gordon Brown that he (Obama) didn’t what the thing. Brown said, reasonably, then why not send it to a museum. Obama said, no, just take it back the UK.
The bust of the former prime minister, once voted the greatest Briton in history, was loaned to George W Bush from the British Government's art collection after the September 11 attacks, has now been formally handed back.
When British officials offered to let Mr. obama to hang onto the bust for a further four years, the White House said: "Thanks, but no thanks."
This bust was not his to return, it was on loan to the American people. Obama had absolutely no right to take it upon himself to send it back. If he ( or more likely his wife who, erroneously thinks that the Brits were behind the slave business) didn’t like it being in his office all he had to do was send it to any of the American museums who would be glad to have it. How rude can the man be? 50 million Americans voted against obama and all of them respected and admired Churchill.
For those who voted for him, you should be embarrassed and ashamed for what you have done
