With all of the terrible, sludge-brained, doped-out political hacks whose columns we read over and over until every atom of our being must fight the urge to swan-dive off a twenty-story building onto a fence topped with rusty spikes coated with rattlesnake venom, we often forget about the execrable Richard Cohen at The Washington Post.
When they showed "Roots" they played it backwards, so it would have a happy ending!
I wish at the end that Lloyd Bridges character had been trussed up for a whipping. They didn't actually have to lash him. Once his hands were tied I think he would have peed in his pants. That would have made the point.
Between the wars? The Poles don't think so, or the French, or the British, or the Dutch, or the Belgians, or even the Russians. Or the Germans, Czechs or Italians. Or the Chinese, Japanese, Australians, New Zealanders, Indians, South Africans, Canadians, Mongolians, Norwegians, Danes, Icelanders, Luxembourgers, Finns, Latvians, Estonians, Lithuanians, Somalis, Sudanese, Kenyans, Egyptians, Libyans, Israelis, Vietnamese, Romanians, Maltese, Bahrainis, Greeks, Gabonese or Thais
as someone who is 4 months older than POTUS, the term I've alway heard applied to us is generation Jones- not really boomers and certainly not gen x
And India. Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Canada, and anywhere else that plays cricket (except Holland, who aren't very serious about the game).
Actually, not quite as well defined as you make it seem. Lend/lease was in place by Dicky's DOB, and American volunteers were flying for the RAF, RCAF, Chinese Air Force, and fighting in the Canadian and British armies. FDR was already pushing hard against the isolationists and Nazi sympathizers who wanted to keep the US out of the war that was raging on four continents (plus involvement of troops from Canada and a couple of naval skirmishes in South American waters).
Pearl Harbor was a very long way from the start of the war, is the point.

Harriet Libel! (Well, maybe momentary confusion).
And get paid to do it? WHAT IS / DON'T EVEN
It's a sign of the Washington Post's liberal bias that they use Cohen to represent the voice of the right.
One of his neighbors, O. G. "No Shit" Sherlock, gave him a clue. Again.

I shall refrain from comment on account of how I now need to run, not walk, to the bathroom before I puke.

Or perhaps both!
Hard to decide what was the greater gift these slaves received... their masters&#039; religion, or their masters&#039; penises.
Yes, but the noble white men forming the KKK to defend the flower of southron womanhood... ack.
