The Declarer (Floyd McWilliams' Blog)

Let's say you were playing bridge in a knockout match and were stuck 30 at the half. Then the director told you to pick any opponents you wanted for the second half. My choice would be democrats.com. A couple of gems:

I wonder if Henry Wallace asserted during his 1948 presidential campaign that opposing the Soviets was wrong because Hitler's body had never been found.

Proof of genius #2:


"Bush's Wild West Policies and Bullyish Posturing Cause Backlash in Southeast Asia

Bush can take absolute credit for one thing: He has managed to destabilize the entire world more thoroughly in just 2 years than any other leader in modern history. Not even Hitler managed to create so much international tensions or precipitate so many political crises in so short a time. But Bush is a political dinosaur turned loose in the global china shop - a half-witted elephant turned loose at a gentile teaparty. The latest tensions to emerge as direct result of Bush's idiocy are in Southeast Asia, where Bush's wooing of China in his anti-Saddam "coalition building" efforts and his bullying of, and inuendoes against, Indonesia and Malaysia are creating political unrest and regional friction. Does anyone dare imagine the world after TWO MORE YEARS of the G.lobal W.reckingball?"



  • August 1939: Germany allies with the Soviet Union.
  • September 1939: Germany invades and conquers Poland.
  • April 1940: Germany invades and conquers Denmark and Norway.
  • May 1940: Germany invades and conquers Luxemburg, Belgium, Holland; invades France.
  • June 1940: France surrenders.
  • August 1940: Germany forces Rumania to cede half of Transylvania to Hungary, causing a revolution against King Carol.
  • August-September 1940: Battle of Britain and terror bombing of London.
  • April 1941: Germany invades and smashes Yugoslavia and Greece.
  • May 1941: German airborne assault seizes Crete.
  • June 1941: Germany invades Russia, killing and capturing hundreds of thousands of people and doubling the size of the German empire within a few weeks.


Anyway, Bush has to destabilize Southeast Asia. Bin Laden might be hiding there!
