Winston Churchill on Obama tonight
Edited on Wed Feb-06-08 01:24 AM by Botany
Now this is not the end. It is not even the beginning of the end. But it is, perhaps, the end of the beginning.
Winston Churchill


We have fought her in the south, we have fought her in the northeast, yes a tough and bloody
fight, we have fought her in the belly of the midwest, and we have fought her in the west. And
yet we live .... dare I say stronger after our fight ....... and now we take the fight to her. After that then on
to Washington D.C. as we show the world the America that can be, not the America that was.

1. And Winston had words that could well apply to our nation now:
"If you're going through hell...keep going!":D

B-)

2. Even though Winston was very conservative he was a great speaker
He would work 1 hour for every 5 minutes of a speech .... When I read
that W thinks he is like Churchill I laughed.

3. And If, Which I do not For a Moment Believe, . . .
Hillary takes control of all or part of this great nation, we will fight on, with our campaign fleet, and from our empire beyond the seas, until the New World awakens, and comes to the aid of the old.

Great speech, eh?

4. we shall never surrender
we shall fight on the seas and oceans,
we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air, we shall defend our Island, whatever the cost may be,
we shall fight on the beaches,
we shall fight on the landing grounds,
we shall fight in the fields and in the streets,
we shall fight in the hills;
we shall never surrender
