Thanks for posting those. A life, indeed. I saw him with all the other living Apollo astronauts in Oshkosh in 1994 for a 25th anniversary thing.

What I remember most was one of the astronauts up on stage reminicing, the sun had gone down, and a Concord took off in full afterburner right behind us, quite a sight.

Everyone turned and looked, and the astronaut said “Everyone stand up and take a look...we are looking up here too!”

I loved it. It said everything about those men, and all of it good.

Obama does not even have the dignity to let the Armstrong Family have a State Funeral.

The fact that Obama has ordered the flag lowered for days at a time for mass shootings does not change that fact.

True.

But it still clearly demonstrates what an absolute screeching P.O.S. little bammy really is.

Now, excuse me for a moment while I say off-camera what I REALLY think about the poofter-In-Chief...

Can you determine another reason for altering the title?

The individual has a "list" he likes to pimp.

I don't use such tactics to scam hits so I can't
tell you how the individual profits from this theft.

Nachum.. explain the business model of your article theft scam.

Dear humblegunner,

My list is dead. The Obama machine killed it. The site was hacked and will likely come down in its entirety after the election. If you log onto the site, Google now lists it as “an attack” site. :) -I guess it is, in a way.

As for profit, the site has never made one. Not much of a business model.

I posted this and left no link to my site, nor to my ping list and only was trying to show that Obama’s belated offering of this hero’s rememberance came only after he carefully put his wet finger to the wind and figured it would be prudent to do so.

I know full well that the promotion of the site rankles some. Apparently it rankles you.

So why make up a fake title?

It is a personal posting. I can link to it any way I like. Besides, as per FR rules, you cannot use USA Today material.

LOL!! Touche!
