On an evening (and early morning) -— of such a horrible terrorist event, both BBC and Sky are doing everything to not state the obvious.

If they do that now —— imagine what they do on a day to day basis on national and international news.

The UK press and broadcasters have been more willing to come clean that it was a deliberate act than the US presstitutes have in this case. Some still hold out hope that it was a defective Samsung phone and hysteria.

Hillsdale college ran a free online coarse on Churchill that was great.

Best (well most entertaining.)

He and Lady Astor did NOT get along.
Lady Nancy Astor:
“Winston, if you were my husband, I’d put poison in your coffee.”
Winston Churchill:
“Nancy, if you were my wife, I’d drink it.”

do you know today too his monument was vandalized too.

I am so sick of this liberal, PC crap. Rigby died , others have died, and now this, and still the liberals will still defend this , or make it out as just one person, and not a religion. How many have to die, does their loved ones have to die for them to wake up?

And the press is probably downright furious at this setback in their multiculti agenda.

A witness I saw interviewed by Tucker Carlson (via a youtube clip someone reposted) said that cellphone calls stopped working (after the attack). Don’t know if that was because of overload or because of an emergency switch to shut down cellphone communications (and perhaps even remote detonation). Or they may have been in a shielded area with poor cellphone reception (my office’s parking garage and stairwell is like that).

I wonder if youtube is pulling down graphic footage from the scene. I also wonder if some of the videographers are receiving the money they are due for their footage (CNN rehosted a clip that appears to show the glow of the first explosion and a second bang can be heard 30-60 seconds afterwards). Zappruder got paid for his film (and Life had an exclusive). These days the same big corporations that fight piracy of their content on youtube readily steal other peoples footage of breaking news events.

“Winston, if you were my husband, I’d put poison in your coffee.”
Winston Churchill:
“Nancy, if you were my wife, I’d drink it.”

I still chuckle everytime I read that. Britian needs more Churchills and we need more Pattons.....

“Winston, you are drunk!”

“Yes, ma’am. And you are ugly. But in the morning I shall be sober.”

Young folks are beyond stupid. Parents are worst paying for their self dummied down kids to see some Donut licking bimbo lip sing for $100 plus a pop. They will have to live with it. Probably won’t learn a lick.
