Glenn turned into a POS in the Senate

Good riddance and may he burn in Hell.

BTW I'm amazed he is being lionized here, he was no friend of ours.

Colonel John Glenn was a bonafide American hero. That deserves to be remembered.

SENATOR Glenn was as much a dirtbag as Senator Kennedy and Senator Byrd (for example) ... but those two lacked Glenn's honorable past.

Space exploration took a lot of courage. He may have not been a good Senator (I am not familiar with his record), but he inspired many young children.

And it’s not right to speak ill of the dead. JMHO.

Why couldn’t we show the class that Trump did in speaking of John Glenn, instead of making ugly remarks about him that seem more like they belong on DU rather than FR?

Why not just remember him as an iconic hero of the space age
and a distinguished fighter pilot in both World War II and Korea, with five Distinguished Flying Crosses and eighteen clusters- a man who put his life on the line for America.

This is the way John should be remembered= whatever his failings as a U.S senator.
