Eisenhower's words to remind us of what this war is doing to this country.
Edited on Sun May-25-08 12:13 AM by rusty quoin
'EVERY GUN that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and not clothed. This world in arms is not spending money alone. It is spending the sweat of its laborers, the genius of its scientists, the hopes of its children." -President Dwight D. Eisenhower, 1953.

IT'S ALL ABOUT OUR CHILDREN.

2. i'm up to C in my 1891 encyclopedia britannicas.
i'm almost done with the 5th volumn of Orations from 1907. occupattions NEVER work out for the occupiers. WARS always diminish the aggressors. just posted another case of this on my blog. i have read from the austrian-hungarian empire to alexander the great. stick a fork in america. georgie killed up. utterly. the american era is over due to the republikkkans foisting the retarded spawn of a lesser preznit.
