"I noticed that the man that spoke right after Pres. Carter, the guy in charge of Pres. Ford's museum, started his speech by saying that "no one could accuse Pres. Ford of being an imperialist president"...

Which I immediately took as a slam at Pres. Bush...but then I heard someone on Brit's panel comment that at one point, Pres. Ford was accused of that during his presidency."

Ford attempted to correct and rebalance the "imperial" presidency after Nixon. Remember, Nixon was the one who put the White House guard in uniforms that looked like they were out of a Viennese operetta.

A slam at Bush?!? Am I the only one here old enough to remember the Nixon and Ford presidencies??

Please see my response to Miss Marple at post #1603...I was NOT paying attention.

I won't do that again.
