Re: It was Ike who basically decided that Saudi Arabia would be the richest nation on the planet and allowed those camel riding pedophile worshiping savages to nationalize an American company. F*** Ike.

Sadly, you do not know your 1950s history but that aside, have you ever considered what the world would be like today if, instead of Ike in the saddle from '52-'60, we'd have had Adlai Ewing Stevenson II as President?

Adlai was noted, you know, for his brilliant intellectual demeanor, his 'gifted' ever so eloquent oratory and his never ending promotion of liberal causes.

Sound... familiar?

“Adlai was noted, you know, for his brilliant intellectual demeanor, his ‘gifted’ ever so eloquent oratory and his never ending promotion of liberal causes.”

One of the great liberal myths of all time, Adlai’s brilliance. He flunked out of Harvard Law (Dean Griswold kept his records a secret) and was nothing better than average at Princeton and Northwestern.

Nothing wrong with being an average student, until the press perpetuates a myth that you’re brilliant beyond words.

Kennedy is another great liberal myth, with his ghostwritten books and his bogus Pulitzer.

The 50’s wasn’t so serene for me, either...I was married twice and divorced twice... >:-}
