15,709. SOMETHING ABOUT THAT...

SOMETHING ABOUT THAT....
Warmonger dictators. Like Theodore
Roosevelt on the pedestal statue of
him out front of the Museum of 
Natural History. No one ever quarrels
with that? The big-game hunter, slayer
of animals, sits pre-eminent in the
place where their corpses get displayed.
With a story too, for each.
-
Police Chief. Soldier. And blah, blah,
blah. He was a Rough Rider because
his butt was chafed in the saddle.
-
Then, down at his boyhood home on
17th or wherever that is, we get to see
his story peddled  -  the bloodied shirt
where the bullet went through but he
gave his speech bleeding anyway.
-
I'm always impressed. Aren't you?
