Thanks, I was really tired of all the undeserved Pollyanna praise for him.

It really made me sick, when Ford died and he was overly praised for pardoning Nixon. It upset me that Reagan was overly praised even thoug he negotiated with and sodl arms to terrorists, as a way to fund an illegal war.

If history doesnt' remember the bad thigns a person did, then it is liek they never happened, and we are doomed to it happening again. Those who dont' know history are dommed to repeat it.

Thank you ~

The article left out another of daddy’s legacies, he was responsible for more logging of the NW National Forests than any previous president; Clinton stopped it! Kept a cartoon, ‘thanking Bush,’ spelled out in downed trees amid stumps inside my outhouse for years…

I was never so impressed with Portland’s rebellious left as when he visited, though. In sequence - three protesters stepped up to the red carpet to his hotel and vomited up ‘red,’ then ‘white,’ then ‘blue’ prior to his walking in. EarthFirst!, I suspect

The world is a better place without him, and would have been a far, far better place had he never been born - or had children ~

Mostly because they want to make a statement or comparison to what we have now.

Yes, and the business connections and questionable dealings of the Bush Family oligarchy, as well, for that matter. It is a fact that when people like this die in the US, the mainstream media go overboard in praise and eulogy. Same was true for John Mc Cain. It takes the progressive media to balance this eulogizing excess by mainstream media.
