Agh, I missed the Dinah Shore Show the other night. If only someday someone would invent a device to let you pre-record TV shows so you can watch them later.
Bring the boys home from Korea and stop communist subversives in our government. Vote for Eisenhower this fall. It's time for change.

>>223932614>July 25th is a holiday in Puerto Rico that officially celebrates the territory’s insular constitution, which became effective on the date in 1952.>In authorizing the drafting, the Federal Executive branch and the congressional committees of jurisdiction took pains to explain that the constitution would not change Puerto Rico’s fundamental political status.>The constitution named the insular government the “Estado Libre Asociado de Puerto Rico” in Spanish, words that literally translate as the "Associated Free State of Puerto Rico.">But the constitutional convention recognized that the U.S. Government was very unlikely to approve a constitution that strongly suggested Puerto Rico was associated with the U.S. as opposed to a possession of the U.S. Nor would Congress approve at the time Puerto Rico as a state in either the U.S. or the international (a nation) sense of the word. So, it named the insular government the "Commonwealth of Puerto Rico" in English.>After the constitution was approved, the ‘commonwealth’ party began to assert that Congress had given up its territory governing powers over Puerto Rico. Constitution Day began to be celebrated as marking a significantly new status.
>>223938517At this point it's just static trench fighting on the 38th parallel while the armistice negotiations are ongoing.

Golly be gee, I'm sure glad I live in America and not one of those crazy communist countries where they don't have baseball, hamburgers, or even any food at all.
