Oh, goodness, gracious NO! Don’t insult poor Billy Bob like that!
When Gerald Ford was in office a very hard working man I considered to be my godfather even though he was never named as such, a man who served in the Navy in WWII and worked in a towel factory for most of his working life, not highly educated and probably only average IQ, made a statement I have never forgotten. What he said to my father and me was, “I don’t care what anybody says, PROSPERITY will ruin any nation.” It sounded like a contradiction in terms but I knew what he meant and maybe he was closer to the truth than I ever imagined.
Sadly, I have to agree. For most of my life I would have vehemently disagreed but with age sometimes comes understanding. Women make decisions based mostly on emotion, not reason.
“The only thing that could be said in Kaine’s favor is that the other names on Hillary’s short list for VP were even worse.”
REALLY? Is that possible?
Yes. They have a very weak stable of potential candidates. Thats why they are running the wife of a former President.
Oh, please, don’t say that! I watched the Admiral in that debate and he really was totally out of place but do you know anything else about him? James Bond Stockdale, yes, that really was his name, was a medal of honor winning US Navy Admiral who was taken prisoner and tortured in Vietnam. He flew Navy fighter jets which puts him in the top ranks of pilots, he was a man of great accomplishment. To compare him to Kaine based on a “debate” performance is abominable. To have someone who gave so much and accomplished so much remembered only for the mistake of agreeing to run as Ross Perot’s VP candidate is so, so sad. It is hard to imagine what torture it must have been for all those who knew who he really was.
Well stated. Admiral Stockdale was an American hero. I had the privilege of meeting his widow some years ago.
Tom Perez and the Castro kid were mentioned prominently and either of them would have been horrible as President if Hillary died in office. It may turn out Kaine is just as bad but at the time the selection was announced it didn’t seem like he could be as bad as Perez or Castro.
Sorry, I was talking about performance, NOT character, and I guess his wife was not demanding an “open” marriage either !!!
