Then we will just make it about his corruption.
When I was a kid, John Glenn was like Mickey Mantle. Walked on water.
Well, IMO his later behavior is what counts and what I will remember the most. He pissed away all the good. For what?
A man without honor is not a man of any worth. That will always be true regardless of how acceptable dishonor has become in western society.
Although I wouldn’t learn much from discussing the Constitution with Glenn or marital fidelity with Mantle, I would love to talk space, jets, and baseball with them. Both were flawed men — we all are. Glenn’s politics absolutely stunk, to be sure. But I won’t throw out a truly remarkable story of a man who gave years of his life for our country because of his politics.
