THEY SAVED THE WORLD | 2005-08-12
Chris Matthews and Bill O'Reilly and Shawn Hannity keep insisting, along with Tom Brokaw, that "The Greatest Generation Saved the World."
When the World War II Memorial was being planned, I offered a suggestion to give them full credit for their accomplishments:
"They Saved the World by turning a third of the human race over to Stalin, Mao Tse Tung, Pol Pot, Enver Hoxha and the builders of the Berlin Wall."
I was just trying to give The Greatest Generation credit for its dedication to Social Progress and Leftist Idealism.
Would you believe that I didn't even get a reply?
