1945 (8:15 EDT) - The United States dropped an atomic bomb (named 'Little Boy') on Hiroshima, Japan, killing an estimated 140,000 people in the first use of a nuclear weapon in warfare.

Poor Japan...Not!

"WAR IS ALL HELL" - Gen. William T. Sherman

Japan brought war to the U.S., so the U.S. brought Hell to Japan.

Let’s review a few FACTS:

1. The Japanese began the war, not the U.S...In fact, Japan started the entire World War in 1937 when it invaded China.

2. The Japanese were beaten and asked to surrender many times, but refused to do so.

3. If the U.S. had invaded Japan, instead of forcing them to surrender with the atom bombs, the death and destruction of the Japanese people and homeland would have been many, many times worse than that caused by the A-bombs.

4. If we hadn’t dropped the bombs, the Soviets were on the march to join the battle, and would have destroyed the Japanese in the north. As a result, Japan would have been split up like Germany, and later Korea.

5. If the war hadn’t ended with this quick-hit, the Japanese may have finished their plans to drop dirty-bombs on the West Coast of the U.S. (make sure you check back on Sept. 22).

6. The race for nuclear weapons was already on...The Germans and Japanese would have gotten there eventually had the Allies not destroyed their war making capability - the Soviets were already collecting German scientists to get theirs. The U.S. dropping atom bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki didn't start an arms race. An arms race had been on for decades - actually for all of human history.

So please, don’t buy into Liberal BS and revisionist writing of history. Dropping the atomic bombs on Japan saved lives (MILLIONS OF LIVES), as well as Japanese culture, and was the absolute proper thing to do.

258 – Bishop of Rome Sixtus II was beheaded while celebrating services in a cemetery.

The Roman world was a dangerous place to be a Christian during this time, and remained so until Constantine became emperor.

1787 - The Constitutional Convention in Philadelphia began to debate the articles contained in a draft of the United States Constitution.

This group of men created one of the most important non-religious documents in the history of the world...Lucky for our young nation, we had the right men in the right place at the right time.

Will we always be so lucky?  It seems like our luck ran out decades ago.

1806 - The Holy Roman Empire ended when Francis II renounced the crown and became Francis I, Emperor of Austria.

This is an understatement, because it should say the HRE was forcefully dissolved by Napoleon.

FYI:  Most are familiar with the '3rd Reich' = Nazi Germany...The HRE was the '1st Reich' and Imperial Germany (1871-1918) was the '2nd Reich.'

1890 - Convicted murderer William Kemmler became the first person to be executed in the electric chair when he was put to death at Auburn State Prison in New York.

Ol’ Sparky was de-virginized...I wish he was used as often as a cheap whore.

1918 - The Second Battle of the Marne ended:  WWI.

The Marne was one of WWI’s major battles, with almost 300,000 casualties between the two sides...The major importance of the battle is it was the last large-scale German attack on the Western Front.

1942 - Queen Wilhemina of the Netherlands became the first reigning queen to address a joint session of the U.S. Congress, telling lawmakers despite Nazi occupation, her people's motto remained, "No surrender.":  WWII.

She should have stayed in Holland and died fighting instead of running away, leaving her people to be butchered by the Nazi dogs...But that’s not the European way.

1944 - The Nazis began the deportation of 70,000 Jews to Auschwitz, from Lodz, Poland:  WWII.

Another big day for the Nazi butchers...But only for the butchers, because I’m sure the Wehrmacht and German people didn’t know anything about it. Riiiiiiight.

1994 - In Wedowee, Alabama, an apparent arson fire destroyed Randolph County High Schools, which had been the focus of tensions over the principle's stand against interracial dating.

We all know the song: “Sweet home Alabama...In Birmingham they love the Governor"...Referencing Governor Wallace, a first class racist - lets not forget he was a Democrat by the way.

2005 - Iran rejected Europe's proposal for ending the standoff over Teheran's nuclear program, saying it was "unacceptable" because it did not give the country the right to enrich uranium.

Ten years later the shell game came to an end...Not with the Iranians forgoing a nuclear program, but with the West trying to stop them.

The Iranians may have put off getting a nuclear weapon (for 10 years - hahaha), but they have not dropped the idea...Our leaders simply kicked the can down the road to our children - like every other problem we have.

2006 - Iran's top nuclear negotiator said Iran would expand uranium enrichment, in defiance of a U.N. Security Council resolution giving the Islamic Republic until Aug. 31 to halt the activity or face the threat of political and economic sanctions.

Of course Iran did...And will continue to do so until it either has its weapon or has its production facilities destroyed by someone with some serious testicular fortitude.
