    Thank you for the clarity re this quote. I was starting to question just how bad my knowledge is of the past, as I had always understood these words to be, as you say, spoken by Winston Churchill.

    For what it's worth, I've seen Jesse Waters interviewing Dem supporters and some of them are also painfully stupid. It's really a decline in mental acuity across the nation. 50 years ago a wise man told me the people who really run America want to eliminate the middle class, resulting in a ruling class and a servant class. You start with education - civics was a required class when I went to high school. Now I'm not sure if it's even offered as an elective. When shows like "Beavis & Butthead" or "Jackass" are glorified and stupidity looked up to, the results are what you have running around today.

    Congratulations for a mistake free, properly punctuated comment. Such writing is a rarity today, despite spell checkers making it all so easy, it seems many just ignore them. I can agree with most of your comment. I'm just not sure how the middle class could be eliminated -- that sounds like something that would take a gargantuan effort and 3 to 5 generations to pull it off. 

     

    I left school some 59 years ago after grade 10. High school was mostly technical courses. But Mother and siblings encouraged me to speak and write intelligently. I've been asked more than once what university I attended. 555 

     

    The TV shows that you mention, huh, what, never heard of them (actually I have but have never indulged).

     

    It's a shame to witness North American civilization being dumbed down. Digital phones no doubt contribute to this too. They should make us smarter, but it seems the reverse is happening.
