As I understand it, they loved their State more than the Union. Remember, in 1787-9, they did not know that once a State joined voluntarily, it was in forever according to the Unionists. Mafioso style?
Tweed was dead by then, and Teapot Dome was a Republican scandal during the Harding Administration in the 1920s, not Democratic. The first great U.S. political cartoonist, Thomas Nast, did many anti-Tammany Hall cartoons of Tweed.
Actually I was just presuming that Snow White took place in Bavaria. Where were the Brothers Grimm from?
Off the top of my head, Hamburg or vicinity, but I may well be wrong.
Being a native Californian in exile, I was most interested in seeing the difference between my home town SF where I lived until 28 and the L.A. area where I lived for the next 29 years — and the radical changes in demographics.
Neither do I. Not enough women have been battle tested to make a valid comparison. But according to fighter ace Historian Col. Raymond F. Toliver, 5% of all USAAF fighter pilots during WWII became aces, 5 or more confirmed air-to-air kills. Of course we had the luxury to take them out of combat after 25-50 mission whereas the Germans flew hundreds even more than a thousand. Eric Hartmann the top ace of all aces of all wars flew 1400 plus, and he did not have his first mission until 1942.
I heard on the news that the original D.A. handling the Sandusky case disappeared mysteriously in 2005.
Try this — http://projects.nytimes.com/census/2010/map or Google what I posted.
Can you imagine those Soviet female pilots horsing around those Yaks and such? It would have been intereresting what our WASPS might have been able to do during WWII.
Wow, and its a hardcover. I may just have to read it, the plot line in the review sounds interesting. Are there any plans for a paperback version?
Soft cover now available on Amazon and electronic/cyber stuff (iPad, ebooks, etc.) on Smashwords.
Newt's personal life can well stand up against Obama's questionable and far more significant past political life (Ayres and Wright and Rezco) and Chicago style presidency. Now it is time to flush out his real history that has been obscured by the birther controversy namely his grades and who financed his college career and why he has no friends from school days — essentailly no history. Regarding Cain, let him run the gauntlet and see how he comes out, but I say nein, nein, nein to 9-9-9 and any national sales (VAT) tax. And any flat tax proposal needs iron clad guarantees against Congression greed.
Google Jan Safarik and visit his site. He has the most comprehensive list I have seen of fighter aces from all wars and illustrations of their planes. Some of the sources he lists are also useful links.
Also agree. Remember when people wished Reagan could run for a 3rd term? He would have served while Alzheimers afflicted him if he could have run and won. And FDR was suffering from a brain tumor during his brief 4rth term.
I suppose the real test aside from political/$$$ corruption, should be everything sexual is acceptable as long as behavior real or merely unproven accusations do not go beyond the parameters established by Clinton, Teddy Kennedy, Barney Frank, and Gary Studs.Be assured the 2012 election will be like a football or basketball game in which the referees, aka the MSM, blatantly and shamelessly support one side.
Some women were shaved tho ... but this is less funnyhttp://www.guardian.co.uk/lifeandstyle/2009/jun/05/women-victims-d-day-landings-second-world-war
I was 11/12 years old when we saw those newsreels in the movie theaters 1944/5, and the audience collectively laughed, jeered, and cheered at the women for being collaborators.
