This is very nice.

Ford also spoke out against the generals demanding Rumsfeld's resignation.

CLASS!!!!!

Ailing or not, I'd say he looks pretty darn good for 92.

Wasn't Ford a critic of Bush? Good to see no animosity has hung on.

I remember how, during Ford's presidency in the 70's, the late-night comedians ripped Ford apart in their obnoxious routines, I'll never forgive them for that. The country needed healing after Nixon, and the entertainment establishment responded with sarcasm and back-stabbing.

Yeah some good news....for a change.

President Ford had something to many modern politicians seem to be in total lack of. HONOR.

i know a guy who used to work for Ford on the NSC staff. he said that Ford was a terrific athlete, and that he would ski down slopes for hours and the media would watch from afar. The one or two spills he would take on the way down would be the only picture to see the light of day. I hate the media. They're all socialist cowards.

"I'd say he looks pretty darn good for 92."

Yes, I was thinking that too!

Well it does sort of go with the territory. If I am not mistaken, Ford loved the Chevy Chase "stumblebum" routine on SNL and had the clips played for him at the White House. Best thing a president can do is laugh that kind of stuff off.

Remember the Mayaguez incident. Gerry Ford did the right thing then - a message that was not lost on our enemies.

The country needs positive news, we don't need to see our presidents torn down and disparaged.

[DoughtyOne]

I agree. Nice.

Republican past Presidents have so much more stature than the Democrat ones do. Carter and Clinton aren't worth a hoot.

Maybe that works for the Prez. As for me, when I see and hear the attack stuff, it makes me cringe.

George Bush is a good man. Pure class.

OH DAILY DOSERSSS well Dubya was in Ford hood

[bybybill]

Mad Tom, you are so right. Some that post here love to slam GWB, calling him a sell out and traitor. Makes me sick. The fools don`t realize that they are helping our two greatest enemies, the terrorists and the RATS. But they don`t seem to care.

That's for sure! Reagan, GHWB, Ford, and Nixon all exited the stage quietly. LBJ didn't last long, but carter and clintoon have just proved that any American can be President. They're as low class as Americans ever get.
