When an Organization Stands for Nothing and is Opposed to Everything
There is a remarkable parallel today between the Republican party and the NAZI party of the 1930s.
… After they have tried everything else.
In World War II, shortly after we entered on the side of The Allies, things were not going well. In our effort to supply England with war materials, we were losing a lot of ships. Our Navy tried all sorts of schemes to get cargo across the Atlantic, but nothing worked. The Royal Navy was […]
Take Back our Country
Roughly 50% of the American population could be classified as “white”. The other half are a mixture of Latinos, Blacks, Asians, etc. If you are a politician, presumably you want to be able to produce results for all of your constituents.
