I didn’t know he was English, but the paper is in Massachusetts. We need to see the good and the bad to understand how the dems and the media (am I being redundant?) will try to define our candidates and shape the public’s opinions. As a soldier (Intelligence Analyst) in the U.S. Army, it was called “Know Your Enemy” and it is vital to practice it constantly.

Man, Second Div., you let me off easy. I read the article again (not at 3:20 a.m. this time) and I need to delete my prior post.

What angered me was the swipe at President Reagan’s “lack” of military service. Apart from enlisting in the 1930s, he was excluded from combat on account of poor eyesight.

Verifying that I found this link, of which the author seems completely oblivious to: http://www.reagan.utexas.edu/archives/reference/military.html

This is posted because the folks who write for newspapers do not fact check — and then base a calumny on something demonstrably false.

I will stop posting at 3:00 a.m. from now on.

Thanks for your ever-vigilant work against the amnesty legislation a few months ago. And thanks for letting me off light for a bum reply.
