B1 Bob - Yes!
Great admired him along with Bob Barr and other real men who twenty years ago knew how to go toe-to-toe against Slick Willy.

I remember Bob Dornan when he debated lefties on the old Joe Pine TV show. Must have been early 60s.

I used to watch C-SPAN, just to see Bob Dornan go apeshit.
