HOLD THE LINE!
« on: November 03, 2008, 10:10:03 AM »
Even if he wins with 105% of the popular vote.

Even if his Political Purity officers check you police and tax records.

Even if they want to take your guns.

Even if they want to take over your schools.

Even if they want to seize the economy.

Even if they want to surrender to thugs and dictators.

HOLD!

THE!

LINE!

No...  When I got here I asked how often we get to go TDY.  They just laughed at me.

I doubt Chesty was the first, nor Hannibal for that matter.  Unlike Chesty at Chosin, at Cannae Hannibal really DID have the seemingly-about-to-win Romans exactly where he wanted them.  A small hidden force jumped the Romans' ass from ambush as they advanced, and the battle quickly turned into a complete rout in favor of the Punic army and their allies.
