1800 - U.S. state electors met and cast their ballots for the presidency. A tie resulted between Thomas Jefferson and Aaron Burr.
This was the young country's first great electoral crisis...Thankfully, Congress broke the tie and the nut-job Burr wasn’t given the post.
It’s funny how the modern media has tried to make us believe the country never faced such a crisis prior to the 2000 election...Unfortunately, our school system has neglected history to the point that most Americans probably believe anything they hear on the news. Which is exactly how the Liberal propagandameisters in the school and media systems intend it to be.
1621 - Galileo invented the telescope.
A giant step towards a “giant leap for mankind”...This invention opened the imagination to the possibility of reaching for the stars.
1989 - Presidents George H.W. Bush and Mikhail Gorbachev announced the official end to the Cold War at a meeting in Malta.
40+ years of Cold War Hell, and America could relax for awhile...Oooops. That was a mistake.
We fell asleep while the Chinese and Islamists prepared for our weakness.
We must never forget our enemies are numerous, and the fall of one only means another takes over the top spot...And we also can't take it for granted our so-called allies are actually our friends, either.
1996- A judge in Hawaii ruled the state had to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples, prompting an appeal.
How about putting this matter to the ballot box Hawaii? It would be a huge slaughter, and the Liberals know it, which is why they fight so hard for judicial appointments. So they can have courts over-rule the "will of the people."
2004 - Ukraine’s Supreme Court overturned the results of the disputed presidential elections and ordered a new runoff by December 26.
A showdown was on between the pro-Western and pro-Russian candidates...The pro-Western candidate won the runoff - sort of.
The Ruskies haven't forgotten this loss, and are doing much to bring Ukraine back into its orbit...Indirectly or directly. Or maybe they'll just shut off the gas during the middle of winter.
Or maybe they'll support a rebellion in the east and take Crimea...Doh!
That was funny when I first wrote it in 2005...Not so much any more.
