Oh, good grief. Timmy is using Ford's death to relive Watergate.

Wanna bet Tim doesn't use Brokaw's statement about Nixon, "in the bunker" to equate with President Bush at this time?

Odds are he will tie it in.

Timmy is using Ford's death to relive Watergate.

Ford died on the same date as Truman.

And I think Ford was in congress in 1950, when Truman sent our troops to take part in what he called a "'police action" fighting "bandits" in Korea.

I'd love to know what Ford thought of Truman sending troops to Korea in 1950.

During Truman's remaining 2 1/2 years as president, 30,000 Americans died for Korean freedom.

Under Bush fewer than 3,000 died in the same length of time, fighting for Iraqi freedom.

Did Ford think South Koreans should be under the boot of Kim Jong-Il?
