![]() I was alive 77-81.
![]() I'm proud to say the first Presidential ballot I ever cast was voting this clown out of office. Looking back he played a large part in my choice of party affiliation. |

![]() i'd have to say that we've had some damn bad 'leaders' lately. obama has continued many of bush's policies, and bush was pretty bad. then there's carter...ford...
i'd have to think that winning ww 2 is the high point of our recent history, just about everything since has been pretty bad, other than winning the cold war. but at what cost did we win that? we never kept a huge military til after ww2, and look at our deficit and debt since that time. vietnam; a disgrace and huge mistake. invading iraq. ignoring afganistans history and invading there...now it's dragged on longer than nam.

I remember those gas lines earlier than 77...Long lines at my local gas station and only 2 bucks of gas per person...but my pump operator always gave me 5 gal since i was a regular customer...always wondered what people thought we should do about the hostages...Invade Iran?...bomb them?...was one failed rescue attempt...400 plus days, none of the hostages was killed or died while in captivity...Never thought much of the peanut farmer from Ga but only Bush gets my vote for the worst....on many levels but primary was Iraq...

![]() Ron Paul may be able to find a little traction, he hasn't been quite so nutty as some of the "front runners" to this point. But of the remaining bunch of GOP candidates, i only see 1 guy who hasn't been in front of the camera's making a bloody fool of himself with his foot in his mouth! That's John Huntsman, i know he's pretty far back in the early polls, but he may make some noise as the race moves into the new year. He could just be taking the approach of letting the others run their mouths and knock each other off, which up to this point they have been doing a great job of doing!
