Another date that will live in infamy

Of course, any date since Jan. 20, 2017 is a pretty good candidate for that designation, but since I haven't seen any mention of the anniversary of the Pearl Harbor attack in 1941, I figured I would mention it.  As the "Greatest Generation" has continually reminded the rest of us, Dec. 7, 1941 was the beginning of the struggle to preserve democracy around the world.  We won that fight and the victors reaped an unrivalled era of prosperity.  It's a pity that many from that generation and more than a few of the baby boomers are flushing democracy down the proverbial toilet.
