TOPIC: General George S. Patton waged heroic combat against some of the most
hardened German divisions in the Middle East to defeat all enemy opposition and
pacify the entire region to make it commercially viable in less than three

The most unpopular Resident, after 6 months in office, was very popular

i think{hope} the chimperor has retired the worst ever trophy.
I still have hopes for the Obama Nation.

He's in the bottom five, but I don't think he holds a candle to
Buchanan.
obama in no way will ever be as stupid and as ideologically boiund as the
chimpenfuhrer.
i do. i'm not defending buchanan mnd you. its just bush has been incompetent

bush has created his own disaster.
