Another fantastic American has passed from us. Local DFW tv WFAA has had many news clips from his life this morning. He will be missed! RIP.

"I like to remember him for his condescending smirk just as Ross Perot predicts the future."

Yes, and Perot was 100% correct. Now we have the same 2 parties left and neither will fix a damn thing, all they do is blame someone else. Now we have Trump trying to right a listing ship and everyone is trying everything under the sun to get him out. Meanwhile, we continue to move in the same general direction whether Dems or Reps are in charge. They go out of their way to benefit other countries while simultaneously making ours worse.

Americans love being screwed.
 
America is the Titanic, and it's already hit the iceberg. Curious George helped steer it towards that iceberg.
 
He was an okay boss. Not a great boss but definitely okay. Now Regan was my first boss and let me tell you what....

No comment on politics from me.

IMHO he was just a guy, who did some things good and bad like anybody else, BUT had a family he loved/loved him.

back to our regulary scheduled thread :)
 
If you ever get a chance this is a great book. Kind of explains why he went bat $#it crazy and started yelling at MIA families to shut up and sit down. I always felt that incident is what cost him his career. This book doesn’t pull any punches and explains how we (US govt) knew and covered up the japs eating prisoners and other atrocities during WWII. Maybe he had survivors guilt or he was ashamed of his actions who knows but it was definitely a D-bag move to treat those MIA families with such great disrespect. I’ve disliked him more and more ever since.
