Christmas in war…

The  Christmas Truce  of 1914 was a remarkable event,  and is always worth a look back.

Stanley Weintraub has authored a number of books about celebrating Christmas while at war,  and his  latest concerns  Korea.

Rich Lowry remembers Christmas  at Bastogne,  where American G.I.s spent the day stopping Hitler’s advance.

Read about the  first SEAL,  who spent his Christmas being tortured in a Gestapo prison.

Unfortunately,  the Christians and others fleeing ISIS in the Middle East have  little left  besides their faith.   Their  spirit is  astonishing.

Another failed meeting…

Remember the spill-response bill meeting the White House had in late June?   Chris Horner  showed why it was nothing of the sort.

Or His Oneness telling Republicans at his White House health care meeting that bringing the actual bill was  “using a prop”?

Well,  his supposed trade meeting with South Korea has been a bust,  too,  because   Korea’s too green to allow His Oneness to sign a trade agreement the Bush Administration had ready in 2007!  But he has to protect the  labor unions,  you know.

As Charles Krauthammer so memorably said Thursday night on FOX,   Obama thinks he can reinvent the world.   Truth be told,  His Oneness believes he can alter reality itself,  which isn’t actually so difficult as long as you persist in magical thinking.
