I tried to hold my tongue for 24 hours.
Just because the media says he was a good man, and just because someone passes, doesn’t make them a good man. I’m sorry. I can’t unsee the evil.
I don’t disagree. He as a genuine hero in WW2 - and nothing that he did afterwards can undo that. However, much like McCain (though more so because he had much more power and time), his political career was a disaster for this country. He embodied the political establishment of this country, which has collectively sought to increase their own power and wealth at the expense of the American people and of all of the ideas underlying this country. They are a traitor class, and his New World Order nonsense is the epitome of what they wish to obtain and shove down our throats. With regard to Israel, which I know you care about as do I, he was another disaster. He was more than willing to sacrifice is real on the altar of oil money from the Arabs, and that is not what he was elected to do, nor was throwing a democracy to the Moslem wolves the right thing to do. Frankly, I despise pretty much everything that the man did. Oh, he did it with good manners, but other than destroying Iraq’s armed forces and allowing the Soviet Empire to continue to crumble, there is precious little good that he did from my perspective. The mere fact that he allowed a reversal of Reagan’s policy on so many issues, and thereby paved the way for the Clintons, is enough to condemn him.
