D-Day-75: We speak English

All the bad, rotten, horrid, no good ideas of the 20th century were birthed in the solons of Europe.

They were all vanquished by the inventors of the Magna Carta, Parliamentary Democracy, the Bill of Rights and capitalism. 

Three armies landed at Normandy, British, Canadian and American. They all spoke English. In the rods of Churchill, these were The Great Democracies.

This blog remains in awe of the European and his grand ideas about internationalism and the European super-state. 

Big idea, isn't it?

How did your other big ideas work out?
