It's a shame much of THIS country doesn't know him as they should.
History will be very gentle with him, and very harsh on us.

Whenever we in the new media get too puffed up, we should remember that the combination of television news, the music industry, and Hollywood have banded together with the democrats to portray one of the best presidents in our history as stupid, greedy, incompetent, and evil; and we should remember that they have managed to convince a fair number of our fellow citizens of this "fact."
I am beginning to think that this nation would best be served by the abolition of television. I think whatever benefits we gain are far outweighed by the damage it does.

It's a shame much of THIS country doesn't know him as they should. I did not know until his funeral that Gerald Ford was either an All-American National Champion football player or that he was a Phi Beta Kappa. I knew that he had been a good athlete, but not a great athlete. Nor did I know until watching early Sat. Night Live shows that the mocking of him was cone every week.
The MSM had complete power back then. The difference now is that they have given up even the pretense of lack of bias.
