Carter has been lately defending his action in the hostage crisis. He was the wrong president at the wrong time. Just like Obama.

I read this book some time ago (On Wings of Eagles), one of the best I’ve ever read

Never heard of Col "Bull" Simons until I read, "The Raid: The Son Tay Prison Rescue Mission", years ago.
I highly recommend it.

Where is this kind of character in our times? I read the book “On Wings of Eagles” and the things Ross Perot did to gain freedom for his trapped employees was amazing. He showed a real cowboy up kind of leadership. We need this kind of common sense today.

...if I’m not mistaken “Bull” Simmons came out of the old Studies and Operations Group...intel operations that the 5th Special Forces ran along the Ho Che Mihn trail.

I kinda wonder what would have happened if Perot had actually won in 1992........

Somewhere in an alternate universe someone has looked under the hood and the economy is thriving and there are no sucking sounds.

Ross Perot was another egomaniac idiot. Thanks to him... we got 8 years of Clinton.
