There's the story of Churchill being invited to speak at a school where he had applied for admittance when a youth, only to be turned down.
There was great excitement at the prospect of the now famous statesman's oratory.
At the appointed time, after the introductions, he took the podium, and said,
"Never give up. Never give up. Never, never, ever give up."
And sat down.
What if Bibi gets up and says
"I'd like to give a shout out to the President, that is, the next President of the United States -- SARAH PALIN."
And sits down.
Cheers!
Churchill, huh?
I recently took an interest in Churchill. I’m not sure why. I downloaded an e-book of some of his speeches. It’s titled “Liberalism and the Social Problem.” I anticipated it to address liberal/leftist/progressive ideology and how to deal with those problems.
Unfortunately, the introduction written by the editor of the book bothers me greatly. It describes Churchill as a raging liberal. It makes him sound like he’d be a major player in the progressive war on reality we find ourselves in today. At least, that’s how the intro read to me.
I’m still going to read the whole thing. I figure I can let Churchill speak for himself.
