    Link to where Bannon has ever claimed anything remotely similar to this?

    You'd have to read the book to understand. One of these officer's letters home to his wife would be quoted, and he would attribute his survival and the success of the attack he led to the guidance of divine providence. It was another era, and part of the point that I was making was that the language and the speech patterns were all but completely foreign to us today.

    There's no hint of irony, he would be completely sincere in his belief. We're speaking of people who would not understand the concept of "postmodern".

    I might add that the first volume was published 75 years ago, which likely adds to the effect, as the author was playing it completely straight as well.

    Reckless. If you're going to have an internet presence dedicated to pronouncing guilt based on photographic evidence of previously unknown people, you had better have some super duper facial recognition software in your toolbox.

    Stay classy. Congrats to Trumpists on their choice.

    Same thing happened after the Boston Marathon bombing, when Redditors started identifying people as the bombers.

    Mark Zuckerberg's sister straight-faced credited Reddit with finding the bombers in her book, and I about threw it through the window.

    How about a link to Breitbart news? If you're a founding member of that shitty, racist website, that's all you really need to know about him.

    Bernie would clobber Trump senseless in a general election.

    LOL. You might want to take a second guess at who founded BREITBART news.

    I want the world's most boring person to become president in 2020. Human melba toast.

    LOL. He was on the board as a founder. And as we know ran the place later.

    Nice deflection though. Again, being a part of that shitty, racist website is all you need to know about him and his views.
