Admiral Denton— what an honourable, decent man. A hero, who blinked his eyes in Morse Code to alert our intel that the N. Vietnamese/Cong were torturing our men in Hanoi Hilton, while the ho hanoi jane was treating with the enemy.
And beyond that he was a good senator. The old dem machine works the black vote on handouts, and castigates the Republicans as “black loving” (sic) from the reconstruction days. No doubt Dentons catholicism in the whisper campaign. Alabama is a lot of things. And these tactics all to shave the margin. Shelby barely won, and was a dem who “converted”.
My point in this is that the back and forth conversions are suspect if they include policy that is not conservative. Some are true epiphanies.
All this party games, with good men harmed. RIP Admiral Denton, who was married for 61 years inclusive of his imprisonment, torture during which later damaged his heart and its failure at 89. Deo Vindice.
Well said, Sir. Exceedingly well said!!!
He was a true hero. This country needs more like him.
