Precisely. And yet he got to enjoy 92 long years of life in America.

Another one world, virulent America hater.

Pardon me if I fail to shed a tear.

Ditto - I was born in ‘60, and all I remember was the nightly body bag count from Uncle Walty.

I remember him saying “he” had inaugurated several consecutive presidents and would stay around for one more. That was Reagan.

I remember his treatment of Tet, like we lost. He betrayed his mission as the most trusted man in America for ideological purposes.

Mark Levin is remembering him for JFK and NASA and the moon landing. Fair enough.

He lived to see his preferences, the politics of the far left, totally in power and victorious. He could leave happy.

****Let me know when CBS will air the special, so I know not to watch CBS at that time (not that it's likely I'd be watching CBS anyway). ****

I was flipping by CBS after I heard about this news and Katie The Dunce said sunday at 7pm they'll have a show. Of course now Fox News dumped Laura Ingraham doing O'Reilly's show.

I always thought Walter's closing remark was cut short of what he should have said: "And that's the way it is according to we the guiding media (day/date). Goodnight."

What can I say?

If you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all.

I'm all broke up. Same as I was when McNamara started pushing up daisies. Those two men caused so much additional death, pain and heartache with their elitist mindset it's unimagineable.

Glorified cue card reader that regurgitated slanted information/major league suck-up/liar, etc... fitting he will be praised nonstop, probably for weeks with the type of corrupt government/media we have assembled here on earth.

Interesting times indeed
