“Sadly my father thought FDR was the greatest and my father as not a dumb man just a union Democrat born in 1910.”
My father, who did serve in World War II in the Navy,
thought George HW Bush was the most qualified
man to be president.
He didn’t know he was evil.
My favourite bridge partner (75 years old) also thought GHWB was a very good President, until I explained why that might not be so. I started by explaining what the New World Order was and asked him if it sounded like a good thing for America and the world. He said “Of course not”. Then I told him that GHWB was the first well-known figure to announce that America would be ushering in the New World Order under his leadership, and I showed a YouTube clip of GHWB saying those words. I thought the dear man was going to cry in front of me. He’s now a very well-informed and active conservative. Below is one occasion of GHWB uttering those words (1990).
