It's a great article, and reading thru his archives was fun, too.
Never had any chance of being a liberal,my father so detested FDR that he would`nt pronounce his name correctly,saying it so it sounded like Ruze-uh-velt.
Politics was the one thing that I never disagreed with him on.
I have since learned he was right on most of the other stuff too.
Scully sells Retro Western but they are kinda $$, but I don't care!
I just got back from a 3.5 mile walk with my puppy and I need to read a Chapter in History and then take the Quiz
Its an online class
We've had a nice week of weather in the 60-70s range, but next week we're supposed to get what passes for "cold" here, not what you would say was cold, anyway!
As a little kid, I do vaguely remember my mom wearng an "I Like Ike" button on her posterior and going to a neighborhood event. I also remember them saying they were voting for Kennedy. Never got the chance to ask them what happened, and I should have, but they voted Republican ever since.
I was among the 18-year-olds that got to vote in 1972, and I was very excited about it. I voted for Nixon, but just to get my dad riled up, and because I was somewhat of a rebellious teen, I told him I had voted for McGovern. Wow, was he ever mad, saying he thought he'd raised me to be a sensible young woman, etc. I 'fessed up eventually and we laughed about it later.
I can't imagine ever, ever voting for a democrat for president, especially not in this particular time. Not to say there aren't "good" dems, I just don't see their party putting anybody up that I would agree with on anything.
My first vote in a Presidential election was for Reagan in 1984 and am proud to be able to say to all the young uns that I was able to vote for him.
Where do the years fall away to?
"Where do the years fall away to?" Man, they fly by like a jet plane, especially after you graduate from high school.
I consider President Reagan to be the greatest president of my lifetme, and I am always proud to say I got to vote for him, too. He was a great man.
My lib friends all knew this, and I was very pleasantly surprised to accept their condolences to me on his passing, w/o any sarcasm or potshots whatsoever.
I want flowers, too. Am I too old to get any?
Although not addressed to me,let me say,not at all.
How's the snodog coming along? Has he had a chance to pull a sled yet? If so, did he look happy or have a sad puppy face.
Pinging to Post #580 for some great tunes
Also Freeper Blurblogger has issued a challenge to other male Freepers, to quote:
“Your mission, should you choose to accept it is to go buy a dozen roses, have them wrapped individually with Baby's Breath and give them out to the nicest girls you can find, before midnight 2/14/06.”
Good evening, everyone!
I am in and out of thread again this evening for the same reason......HOMEWORK
Evenin' RR and All! I'm beginning to regret missing last night's festivities--looks like there were a lot of posts.

Thanks to the HD, I think my gaydar for the males in pairs figure skaiting has improved its detection capability by 30%.
Well hang around as much as you can, we understand!
