"I come in peace, I didn't bring artillery.
But I am pleading with you with tears in my eyes:If you - - with me, I'll kill you all."

It was the greatest moment of Pattons career and a welcome, day-late Christmas present for the surrounded heroes of Bastogne. The Americans went on to smash the Germans at the Bulge, one of the most significant victories of the war.
Desperate for a miracle amid the crisis, the Americans got what they needed from Patton, who stayed completely confident in himself, his troops and his policy of aggression. That confidence enabled him to take the big risks necessary for a miracle.
With the economic recovery going in fits and starts, you might want to do a little miracle working of your own. Not so surprisingly, Patton-style miracles are replicable, if you do the following:
Believe in yourself. Patton was famous for many instances of bad behavior, especially the notorious slapping of a wounded soldier. But he never lost faith in himself or his belief in aggressiveness as the path to success. If you believe in what you’re doing, keep doing it. If you don’t believe in it, find something you can believe in. Quickly.
Dont worry about policy or business rules. Patton organized and trained his troops to handle something so difficult it was considered impossible, according to military doctrine. If you’re striving for a miracle, you can’t afford to be constrained by your company’s past.
Be aggressive. Take risks. There’s no way around this. Big success is for those who take big risks. Playing it safe may keep you in business, but it also squanders opportunities.

That man is Mad Dog Mattis. Bring him out of retirement and put him at the head of the JCS.

Patton probably showed his courage most in Mexico. A young lieutenant, he shot either 1, 2, or 3 Mexicans including Poncho Villa’s second in command.
Three were killed but Patton may not have been the only one to shoot them.
Since Patton was a world class pistol shooter and he was described as standing rock solid as the Mexicans shot at him. This while shooting at the Mexicans, my guess is he killed at least two of them.
Anyway Patton carved one notch on his .45 Peacemaker and tied the Mexicans to the fenders of his car and presented them to a shocked Pershing.
Patton then proceeded to tie the two dead bodies of the bandits to the hood of his car and drove back to base camp.
Almost everyone like Patton, Bradley, Betel Smith, Schwarzkopf, or MacArthur have been purged from the military by our man child in chief. But, some are out there to be found. And, Trump is the man to find them.
Nothing in common at all. Patton had core values.
Patton hated Bedell Smith. He even left word with his wife that Smith not be allowed to attend his funeral.
Heidi Cruz wrote the white paper on NAU for CFR. Both her and her husband are Globalists. Some people just believe they are superior, that they are elites, and more intelligent that everyone else.
Trump is a vulgar nationalist.
A white paper, huh? Does that make her a racist?
I’ve always believed Heidi Cruz is sinister. I hear she is secretly employed by the Illuminati and moonlights for the Bilderbergers while doing part-time hosting duties at the Bohemian Grove.
She’s a threat, I tell you!!!!!!!
The Donald has many traits of Patton. He also has some traits of Regan and probably a lot of other people. I don’t think I’d want Patton for president. It’s great to win a war, but winning the peace is more important. Obama’s fiasco in Iraq and Afghanistan is ample proof. Can Trump win the peace after the battle? That is the big question.
Have either of you ever heard of Bill Still? He has put out on youtube.com videos called **The Money Masters**. I suggest you both educate yourselves on what people like Ted Cruz, Trey Gowdy, and Paul Ryan are about. They are no different than Nancy Pelosi, Mitt Romney, or David Rockefeller.
Your God-given rights mean nothing to any of them
Any word on where he comes down on standardizing air-travel beacons between the U.S., Canada, and Mexico?
Who.
Bill Still. Has he been apprised of the true horrors of the Building a North American Community paper?
Patton was also a hemophiliac. In today’s action army, he wouldn’t be able to serve...unless he was a homo or transvestite.

You are so right! :)

I do not know about that. His talks about the Federal Reserve, though, are very interesting.
I love those error filled videos! Very scary!!
