A waste of time. What he did do or fail to do is what we should look at. All other exercises are but mere vapor escaping into political nonsense. Richard C.

Sometimes it's harmless - "would Chuchill Twitter?" - but more often it seems to follow the logic pattern: Churchill did things which were courageous and right. What I am proposing is courageous and right. Ergo, Churchill would do what I'm proposing. Either nobody is taught logical analysis any more or they don't want to go through the exercise.
