Hmmm...Presidents of *my* lifetime:
Truman: pretty good...made the right call in August 1945
Eisenhower: Good
Kennedy: Pretty good.”Let *them* come to Berlin” was excellent.
Nixon: Pretty good.Watergate was just just revenge for 520 Electoral Votes.
Ford: Tolerable
Carter: Second worst of my lifetime,worst until August 2009.
Reagan: Outstanding! Best of my lifetime.
Bush Sr: Good...but lacked backbone.
BillyBob: Horrible
W: Much better than either of his opponents.
Osama Obama: Worst of my lifetime.Certainly one of the worst in our history.
Trump: Quite good so far...but nobody knows what the future holds for him.

"I DONT LIKE LINCOLN."

He wasn't perfect, but at least he wasn't a womanizer, and he didn't sell access to the White House. Back then, people could walk in right off the street, and wait to see the President.

The History Channel used to be great up until the early 00s.

It was always on.

History International was good for a couple of years then went downhill too.

There aren’t any presidential porn parodies already made?

Any of them would be as accurate as whatever bill would produce.

LOL

I can’t type any of the comments that first came to mind as parodies :)

We’re a PG board. :)

After yesterdays story, I am glad you are still around to joke with us.

I pondered for a little bit how we REALLY don’t know everything that is going on in our bodies at any given moment.

Yes pain usually is a helpful hint.

But i’ve known too many folks who had no pain and were dead within months from a disease or occurrence in the body that did not have pain as an indicator.

I’m assuming you ended up there because of pain?

I interned for Ghost Adventures when it started. History offered a slot for them with more money believe it or not. Years later, when I talked to Zak in Vegas and why he chose Travel, he told me those people at History have a demonic scent to them.

Why I don’t watch “History” channel. Exemplified. It’s become the channel of freaks, geeks, and “ancient aliens”.

LOL!! I used to watch Zak and his buddies, but like with a lot of TV shows, I get bored, and lose interest. Ghost Adventures has been on for many years, and they’re still going strong. I see the commercials for them all the time. It sounds like Zak had The History Channel pegged correctly all those years ago. Nothing’s changed, they’re still Satan’s messengers on earth.

The so-called “history” channel has been unwatchable for years and years.

I DONT LIKE LINCOLN.


I think one of the most entertaining ‘what if’ scenarios in American history is if Lincoln hadn’t been assassinated and was able to advocate for his vision of ‘Reconstruction’. Congress was dominated by the Radical Republicans who wanted the South to be punished. Would he have won the political struggle or would he have been impeached like Johnson was? And would he be seen as a hero (by many—not you) as a hero today.
