”... 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...”

I readily do that with Benedict Arnold. I long ago had to do that with John Glenn, and that was a painful thing for me.

I generally like your threads, but don’t think this one will fly.

I have to tell you, this was painful for me to have to reach this conclusion many years ago that John Glenn...John Glenn was a leftist political hack.

I don’t say that because he was a Democrat, I say that because of the things others have said on here.

I used to think Scoop Jackson and Harry Truman were worthy of admiration, but I have found over the years that both of them, at a critical point in our nation’s history, put the well-being of the Democrat Party before the well-being of the Republic, and I find that appalling.

John Glenn did the same thing, and I take no pleasure in saying that.
