Kelly is a gutless wonder.

Complete opposite of Churchill.

(And even though Churchill’s mother was an American, he was not a natural born citizen as evidenced by Congress bestowing HONORARY citizenship upon him)

-—To be selected as an astronaut, you must be the best of the best – smart, fearless, and psychologically sound.-—

Not anymore, apparently.

“Scott Kelly, a retired American astronaut with multiple space flights under his belt, apologized Sunday after quoting Winston Churchill and calling the 20th century British prime minister “one of the greatest leaders of modern times.”

Um, I’m going to go with he’s a coward. Toss on top of being a coward, he’s a greedy coward.

He likes getting paid monies for speeches and would not want to ruin the possibility of getting paid from funds in the EU. And out of the EU.

Yep. Greedy. Coward.

That was his signal to the Left that he is willing to play ball.

He may have in mind a political career.

Leftist crazies got a reporter fired for wearing a Trump.

They got a news anchorman fired for supporting Kavanaugh.

They want to be able to be offended to give them power over speech and destroy lives.

Because of this?

How dreadful are the curses which Mohammedanism lays on its votaries! — Churchill

Kelly, once a very brave man, has become a coward and a jackass for the radical left.

This will end when people STOP APOLOGIZING.

Any apology is a tacit admission of guilt and shows weakness.

Once you apologize your enemy controls the narrative and you lose any means to defend yourself.

He probably doesn’t like General Patton either.

We have a lot of people who don’t know history and it shows.

Including the morons who forced him to apologize.

British Colonialism is seen as racism today by the lunatic left. Winston Churchill had spoken for certain colonial policies in his past.

I can’t agree with the guy. I’d rather a flawed racist who was a great patriot in his time for a cause worth fighting for than one of these self proclaimed flawless leftwing douchebags trying to end national sovereignty as the zombie Comintern leftovers that they are.

Oh, and “Enoch was right!”

> We are all Americans. That should transcend partisan politics,” Kelly wrote on Twitter in the evening <

Wait...what? Many people on Twitter on NOT Americans. Kelly has just offended them! And what about uneducated people who don’t know what “transcend” means? Kelly has just offended them too.

Therefore, I demand that Kelly issue even more apologies.
