Such a timely article for our times. Sadly there are no Churchill’s today in America or Brittan. We live in very dangerous times and instead we are left with the likes of Obama and his “pantywaist” ilk to defend America and the world from those who would destroy us.

There’s no Hitler either - it’s not the time for a churchill but for a bismarck.

If I were to pick the dominant figure of the 20th Century, it would be Winston Churchill. He is the only person to serve in important government posts during both World Wars. Even though he was managing an Empire in eclipse, he never lost sight of “the Big Picture.”

This article is a very good snapshot of him as he was about to be brought into what was very shortly to become a war cabinet.

And no, sadly, there don’t seem to be any more like him. Well, actually, I believe that there are. It’s just that the leftist dominated state-run media/entertainment complex will destroy such a man or woman today before they ever get near the levers of power.
