"he was far more villified then than Bush is now"
Nope! Not even close! The dems were still civilized. This crude, crass, rude, ill-manered bunch today is the brain child of the Clintons.
Agree. Reagan & Tip O'Neill used
to golf together. Try to imaging
Bush being on golfing terms with
Gephardt(pre-Pelosi), Daschle or
any leading Liberal Dem.
"imagine"
Funny you should say that.
I've only had net access for 8 years and we got FoxNews about 2/12-3 years ago.
I found FR just shy of 3 years ago.
I'd never heard such vicious, vitriolic rhetoric before.
Have they always been like this?
I do recall "liberals" in the late 60s/early 70s scaring the bejeebers outta me.
[I was young then, 9-10]
We ran into a pack of draft-dodgers in a campground while we were on vacation in Canada in '69 and my dad had to walk me, my mom and my gramma to the restrooms for fear of our lives.
I knew they were generally crazy but since W got in, they seemed to have gone completely barking mad.
