Sailors on Saturday night liberty. This snapshot was taken of three sailors at Pearl City Tavern -- the Monkey Bar -- in Pearl City, Hawaii near Pearl Harbor. The barmaid who took the photo offered to sell it to the sailors. "What a scam" they thought--keep it. That night was 79 years ago today. The next morning, the sailor on the right, Cliff Olds, would find himself trapped in the bow of the USS West Virginia as it lay sunk pierside at the bottom of the Harbor. He would survive in that small compartment for 16 days, yet tragically no rescue would come. Cliff Olds was one of 2,403 US personnel who died as a result of the attack. But we remember.

Now, we worry about Tweets.

Progressives are the most open minded, tolerant, and inclusive people on the planet, as long as you agree with everything they say, and do exactly as you're told.
