1. You mean she'll be handing out 1/2 of her supporters Mosin rifles and the other 1/2 10 bullets? |
|
Or do you mean they'll all get a horrible case of lice?
or they they'll eventually make a giant statue of her with a sword beconing from the east there?

2. I don't think that is a good analogy. |
|
This battle(of Stalingrad) is often cited as one of the turning points of the war in the European Theater and was arguably the bloodiest battle in human history, with combined casualties estimated to be above 1.5 million. The battle was marked by brutality and disregard for military and civilian casualties by both sides.

10. Oh, it's definitely not a good analogy |
|
I thought equating Sen. Clinton's campaign with the Nazis was a little much, and then I realized what place my guy would have in the OP's analogy. Yikes.

5. Well it looks like the Wehrmacht's going to win this time. |
|
Funny reference though. I forget the original thread. What were they saying was Stalingrad last time? Virginia? Maine?

6. Last ditch defense against overwhelming odds that turned the tide of the war? |

I'm an optimistic supporter but not that optimistic.
