THE ROBERT W. WHITAKER ARCHIVE

ANOTHER STATISTIC | 2004-10-23

I mentioned that there were six million Jews in the Roman Empire at the time of Christ. The total population of the Roman Empire was about sixty million. If one just THINKS about that statistic, it totally changes the whole picture of history the preachers give us.

No one has made it more clear that he dislikes President Bush than I have. But here is another statistic I know that no one but me mentions:

When Bush became a pilot, the death rate for people in pilot training was HIGHER than the death rate for those in uniform in Vietnam. Pilot training was EXTREMELY dangerous then.

I dislike Bush, but I dislike professional veterans like Kerry, and the group that calls itself The Greatest Generation even more.

I do not dislike Bush on a personal level - he seems to be genuine. I don't like the open border, his jew advisors, his refusal to try to be really great and make a historic difference, etc. This country simply is too big and diverse to be anything but mediocre - you cannot get elected without pandering to too many groups. A local person not to like is that Free Times Fox individual who is a (very ugly) poster boy for the Left. He has one column - he hates Bush and he bores with it over and over. I process an unbelievable amount of information each week so that is how I know about the Fox creep. Another Leftie in the Columbia area is the David White radio program on WIS radio on Sun. mornings - I recently tripped him up.

Put Bush and Kerry into a big canvas bag. Close your eyes and spin it around. Then take a stick and do some wacking.

You will always be hitting the right one.
