Remembrances of a Christmas Past

On this grand Christmas day, Folly would like to reminisce about another wonderful Christmas.

In 1972, President Nixon gave the Vietnamese people a truly magnificent present. Although a Quaker, a Christian sect devoted to pacifism, Nixon didn't allow his religious convictions to get in the way of a massive bombardment of Hanoi on the anniversary of the birth of our Lord.

That showed those G-dless communists!

Folly can only hope that our current president, himself a devote Christian, will make a similar statement today; a statement that might be remembered at a Christmas thirty years hence.
