He had the Senate at times. Amazing what he accomplished given that it all had to get through a Democrat House led by Tip O'Neill.

Thanks for the correction. I remember everything now that I am older and some of the things actually happened. Apologies to Mark Twain.

You just had to be in the right social circles.

I suppose so.

calling them outright “fakenews organization”.

Pure Alinsky at its best. It was glorious. I wonder if Bannon had a hand in the prep.

From 1987-1989 the D’s had both.

How did this happen?
what does it say about american people?

The economy had already improved a lot by that time ...I mean by 1986 election.

Or repairing clothing with a needle and thread. I learned to sew as a young boy, am I'm embarrassed to say that my own kids don't have that skill. Sigh...

[Windflier]

I actually liked shining my shoes. Such a clean smell.

Just hearing you say that, caused me to recall the smell of black shoe polish. My brothers and I all had our own shine kits.

Generally, anything on YouTube stays there, unless it gets targeted for removal by the left. Just use their YouTube search field at the top of the page.

Thanks. I'm glad to see that the great Right Side Broadcasting was the source of this particular video. :-)

when he had both Houses at the beginning

I think it had been 40 years since Republicans controlled the House before the Gingrich revolution took it over in 1994. Gingrich was a visionary, just not a good leader of men.

Speaking of CNN, it's time Trump look into CNN propaganda being the only TV station on at our airports.

Also, a lot of people don't know this, but they are brainwashing our kids in the schools with CNN Student News:

"CNN Student News is a ten-minute, commercial-free, daily news program designed for middle and high school classes."

Here's their website: http://www.cnn.com/studentnews

Right away I'm hit with "explains global news to a global audience." and "Featured this Wednesday on CNN 10: the struggles of Venezuela's economy, the effects of coral bleaching, and the rise and fall of Yahoo Internet company."

I haven't seen any of the episodes, but you can imagine the slant that's sent to our kids.

I hope the new Dept. of Ed pick, Betsy DeVos, looks into this.

Thank you for that link! :-)

That's not the govt's job. that's something we can do.

As for Buzzfeed, I’m getting off their mailing list.

[JimSp]

Agreed. I was impressed.

Already been corrected and apologized for. GW had a short stent, guess I had my administrations mixed up. Old age sucks. All I remember anymore is Dewey beat Truman, I saw it in the Times.

Can we start a petition? Is there a nationwide Airport Association?

Found this: American Association of Airport Executives Start there?
