**Father’s Day - the worst thing American President Richard Nixon did***

The worst thing Nixon did was drop the interstate speed limit to 55mph. I got mu first speed tickets then.

The only worthwhile thing Clinton ever did that was restore the speed limits to their pre- Nixon limits.

Either you have full equality, or you fully take account of biological, psycho-emotional, social and cultural differences. There is no well-defined, sustainable middle ground.

Yes, two men broke into the Democratic Party headquarters in the Watergate building...

For history's sake, just how many illegal break-ins were there - on both sides?

***Men are, on the whole, much more involved on a day-to-day basis with their children and noticeably more demonstrative emotionally than their fathers were.***

I beg to differ.

I have no answer for that - but God forbid they would have stolen 100 FBI files!!

They probably would have been hung!

It was the republican congress in 1995 that changed the speed limit. Clinton reluctantly signed it. That was when we had some leadership.

For history's sake we should begin by noting that five men were arrested at the scene of the Watergate burglary, not two.

55mph is the exact speed at which I get sleepy.

The writer stresses the role of church on Mother’s Day. This morning our family went to church to celebrate Father’s Day. The sermon was about the role of the father in the family and why he is so important. I do not consider this day wasted at all.

Nor do I. Fathers are to be revered and respected. Just as I do mine. If we had more fathers acting like fathers the country would be a much nicer place. There are few more deserving of the honor of a day out of the year, than Fathers!

Next to the obama trash collectors Nixon was a saint.
