My dad was a great admirer of Truman..Great article..I am old enough to have lived through all this history. Bush was criticized for the remark.."end on your watch"..So many people are so unmindful of history or else they just want to stick their heads in the sand and ignore the reality of this War on Terror...
(No one ever mentions that we lost 54,000 in Korea either.)
One of Mrs Truman's friends mentioned tha Harry used the word "manure" too often and she should bring it up to him. Bess Just replyed, "No, it took ten years to get him to use that word."
