I think you have already guessed the answer Larry.
Pete, I know you didn't ask me, but I'd like to answer anyway.
I think I like Clinton the best.
When he left office we were at peace with the world, we had a budget surpless, and he was an endless source of entertainment...gotta love it when a POTUS manages to sneak some cute intern into the White House for a bit of "lip service", so to speak :shocked:
All kidding aside...he continues to be highly regarded as an elder statesman here in the U.S......he's nowhere near the laughing stock he made out of himself on the witness stand.
I used one of his quotes as the answering message on my phone once---"Hello, you've reached Doug at 555-5555, and I'd like to make one thing perfectly clear....I did not have sex with that woman, Miss Lewinsky. Now that that's settled, please leave me a message."
So very few people left messages...but almost all left lengthy laughter on the machine!!!!
They did call Reagan the Great Communicator....he was OK, nothing great, but he did have a down-home way of making people believe him, whether he was telling the truth or not....and, in his behalf, I must admit that he was WAAAAY funnier than Gee-Dub ever thought he, himself, was :lipsrsealed:
Cheers!!

FDR is one of his favourite Presidents, but he is "flawed" (JC)
Using Jim's own "Reagan armed the Taliban" example of a more flawed President, I could say that Jim's favourite President was personally responsible for the horrific trade in illegal drugs that has cursed America for the past 60 years.
No, I say, not could, I will say it. (these are Jim's rules remember, not mine)
FDR WAS personally responsible for promoting the illegal drug trade in the USA.
For anyone with half a brain, that statement is a simple one to explain, but can Jim?

Usually, there is a time when a sane person, stops, looks into himself and asks himself questions. Only the insane fight, fight some more, fight again and then when all else fails, keep fighting. This is like watching King Canute.
Jim, do you have any desire to meet anyone halfway? If so, then talk, discuss, consider. All we can hear is the drum beating, on and on and on and on and on and on and on.

McGraph never discusses anything he hasn't got a raft of statistics on from Google that appear to back his preconceptions. I was amazed when he said that he had Googled all the things that he reckoned were bad about Reagan. I quite sure that if I was paying attention and was contemporary with any head of state, I would not need to go look up what I thought was right/wrong with him.
For example: Tony Blair was WRONG because he shagged a wide mouth Guppy Fish.
You won't find THAT little factoid on Goggle (sic) either. Ha!

Not so dumb Jack. We're the ones who were dumb allowing that bastard to talk us into Gulf 2.0 the lying little shit.
Without Teflon Tony, who knows, would Son of Bush gone ahead on his own?
I don't think he would have done because the other members of the "Coalition" ha ha don't make me laugh, made the tea and polished tank tracks.
Weapons of Mass Destruction. My sainted ass. He just chose to believe Bush 2.0 rather than his own Intelligence Services who clearly told him there wasn't any, and if there had been, they were probably in Iran or Syria before a berm had been breached.
Which begs the question, if no Gulf 2.0 would there have been a 9/11?
Had Bliar shown some GUTS and demonstrated more interest in serving the nation than his bank balance, who knows? But it's a serious possibility..

Forgotten Larry?
Have you forgotten I'm British and therefore I read unsanitised foreign news?
I suppose you mean the car park attempt. Yes, that should have rang a bell somewhere like the 'pilot in training' guy that actually admitted to his instructor that he wasn't really interested in learning about landing!
You just could not make this stuff up.
We should be all seriously embarrassed for ourselves...no wonder they think we're all soft.

I'll make allowances just this once...
Amen to that.
(And remember, terrorists are not led nor 'staffed' by those who worship at the alter of p.c....'who constantly worry about 'what-will-the-world-think-if-we-do-this-or-that', nor who embrace the idea that they should 'get-a-consensus-all-around-the-world-before-we-make-ANY-move-at-all'. And they DARN SURE don't sweat any foreigner's 'constitutional right' to due process!!! The Founders, Teddy Roosevelt, Harry Truman and the like must be spinning in their graves.)
