A Bit of Wisdom from President Eisenhower

"Farming looks mighty easy when your plow is a pencil and you're a thousand miles from the corn field." ~ Dwight D. Eisenhower October 14, 1890 – March 28, 1969


Eisenhower speaks with men of the 502nd Parachute Infantry Regiment, part of the 101st Airborne Division, on June 5, 1944, the day before the D-Day invasion.

I wonder if Hamilton will ever post a bit of wisdom from a woman, or a person of color, or .......?

Always male. Always white. Always intellectually mediocre.

    I cringe to think of whom you might consider intellectually sufficient

      It's a bad idea to directly insult your readers, John

        Doesn't this photograph remind you of Trump addressing the January 6th crowd before they attacked the Capitol?

        Both were incredibly inspiring, patriotic moments.

      I'm not sure. Maybe someone like Dan Quayle. Now, there's an intellectual giant. Not to take anything away from Donald Trump.

    So someone speaking to U.S. men who may die in the next few hours for the freedoms of people they have never met and to prevent the complete extermination of Jews is somehow not worthy of a quote?

    That just about sums up the left today! Even those willing to die for their fellow men aren't quite good enough?

      Read the quote, please. It wasn't about something as altruistic as self sacrifice. It was about farming... Hamilton took a perfectly inspiring photograph, and wrapped it in pig turds.

          Bush, Obama, Trump: 20 years of war, 2,400 dead Americans, war continues.

          Biden: 8 months of war, 13 dead Americans, war over.

          Biden, got the job done.

                Trump is instructing you NOT TO VOTE in 2022 or 2024 elections.

                Be a loyal Trumper, follow your leader's instructions.

        No you said Hamilton shouldn't have quoted him because he was white! Your complaint was about the person. But you probably think famers should be ordered around from afar as well.

        She's a real loon. Too stupid to realize her all caps and other political whining posts serve no other purpose but to further enforce her laughingstock public image.

          Trump is responsible for the gross mismanagement of the pandemic that cost 700,000 Americans their lives . Is that his platform for 2022 ?
