Truth it’s the most dangerous thing to a communist

Note who the MSM hates the most and has them in the crosshairs.

I was a beer drinker when I did drink. Never tried a martini. Heard about them all the time though.

Kinda thought it was a drink for snooty, snobby types but that was just me. A working stiff and a Bud drinker. But that was over thirty years ago.

Just what is a martini made with and what is a ‘’dry martini?

That would have been a disaster for us. The Russians were all over east Germany and Eastern Europe at the time and had a powerful army.

America was tired of the war, infrastructure had been put through the wringer and people just wanted it all to end.

He's so hated because he was really on to something.

A martini is a drink composed of 2 parts gin to 1 part vermouth, shaken with ice, strained into a specialized glass, and garnished with a green olive.

A “dry” martini omits some or all of the vermouth.

Gin is grain neutral spirits flavored with various spices including juniper berries.

Vermouth is a fortified, spiced wine.

Ice is dihydrogen monoxide in its solid for,

An olive is the fruit of the tree “Olea europaea”.

Green generally refers to light with a wavelength between 500nm and 565nm.

We had the German army ( Patton’s plan) and nuclear weapons….

Soviets had to wait 3-4 years for those even with the Rosenbergs

Beats me. I've never tried one either.

For me, a martini is a drink composed of 1 part vodka to a teeny swish of vermouth around the inside of the glass. Olive, of course.

That, my dear, is a (dry) Vodka Martini ... a time honored variation of the classic Martini.

IIRC, James Bond’s famous drink is your preference ... “Vodka Martini shaken, not stirred”.

I myself am the president and founder of The International Society For The Preservation Of Cads.

The martini is our foundation’s favored drink.

After the third use of the atom bomb there were no more reserves of enriched plutonium to make a fourth bomb.

There had been three originally. The first was the test bomb, detonated on July 16, 1945 and the other two were dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki . It would have taken months to produce another and the idea of taking on the Russians, who at the time had a very powerful army would have been virtual suicide.

Why, no. I hadn’t thought of that.

Any suggestions Madam?

Joe Biden perhaps?
