Definitely one of the better ones in the last half century. The
Abominable No man is gone. Jerry vetoed almost everything that came
across his desk; it's probably the last time that Congrease actually had
to work for a living. He will be missed.

In keeping with the long social/media tradition of emphasizing positive
aspects of a dead President, especially in the short-term aftermath, I
will refrain from mentioning the fact that he was unpopular for making
a deal with Nixon to pardon him from criminality in the Watergate
scandal (and thereby relieving him of going to prison, and thereby
subverting our due process system).
And, I will not mention he was notable in American history for bringing
the rage of women to the assassination stage, for the first time, which
resulted in two attempts on his life, one by Sarah Jane Moore, the
other, by Lynette Fromme (a Manson follower). Both occurred in
September 1975, in California. The nation was is a nasty mood that
year, due in part to Nixon escaping punishment, the aftermath of the
Arab oil embargoes, and the general Watergate 'depressive mood.' Jerry
Ford can't be blamed for all the nation's emotional quagmire then, but
he didn't do much to relieve it.
And, I don't want to mention that Jerry Ford couldn't debate Jimmy
Carter well at all, and lost points galore on his presentation and
demeanor. He was often portrayed as a rather dull, not particularly
smart man, who was characterized as Nixon's 'revenge.'
Lastly, I don't like to mention at this time that the man was
incredibly awkward on his feet, and kept falling and tripping, which
caused the media to howl with laughter and comics to ridicule poor ol'
Ford.
No, I don't want to defame the man in his passing at this time...for
the sake of revised history, glowing eulogies, and convenient omissions
of fact. He was, after all the glamor of power and privelege is
stripped away, basically just another man. He had parents, children,
friends, and a job to do...

Standardized gracious *****, Stevie, but even if Carter really

Well...Stevie...I know you're such a big fan of Ed Kennedy that any
glowing 'tribute' to Ford he gave you'd just naturally regard it with
the utmost respect. LOL!!!
And how about Ed's blistering disdain for Junior? Do you regard it with
the same respect? (Actually, Ed and Big Bush rubbed buns at Texas A&M
not long ago, then Ed went back to attacking his son's policies.) And
did you know that Edward Kennedy was critical of Ford's policies back
in that 1974-77 time frame?
Yes, in all probability, Eddie was doing what most politicians are
notoriously known for -- kissing ***** to further their own public image
and popularity.
There's no doubt Ford was a tenacious personality well suited for the
military and government service. I don't deny his tenaciousness.
Sometimes, though, lack of good judgement and lower intelligence can be
misinterpreted as courage.
My ol' late Okie stepdad used to say, "Either he's got guts, or he's
just damn stupid!" For example, when Ford was confronted by Fromme in
Sacramento, he became visibly ashen-pale ... a sign of extreme fear,
and seemed so frozen that he had to be buckled down by a SS agent from
behind to protect him from the shooter. Later, he refused to mention
the incident, and got accolades and ovations for his 'courage.' But,
was it courage, or was it a political scheme to further his image (he
wasn't popular at the time)? What did his advisors tell him, in secret?
Maybe, "Mr. President, don't mention anything about it. You'll look
stoically laconic and solid that way. Let 'em react to it and keep your
mouth shut." Stevie, so much of public imagery from these leaders is
purposeful, planned to garner the most popularity and support,
especially true when they're down in the polls. It's hard to get
intellectual, emotional honesty from leaders who have their careers
beholden to corporate monied influences, play the public popularity
game for votes, or simply have enormous egos that look forward to
having a monuments built for them, or libraries named for them. Don't
you get it?

I'm not surprised you couldn't agree with me more -- you're into
following people loaded with false-imagery *****, Stevie...public
officials with big egos and rich powerful friends they do favors for.
The mistake you make here, your critical error in tactics for arguing
for the worship of these people, is that you usually assume the whole
world is divided into black and white. And, either, I, or anyone,
chooses the black or the white, or it doesn't make any sense to
you--human existence, that is.
I will tell you this: I can get more intellectual, emotional honesty
from a whino in the streets than I can expect from the people you look
up to, the rich and elite, the celebs, the power brokers of humanity.
That difference in perspective is what greatly separates the usual
'traditional' conservative from the usual 'liberal' ... if you didn't
have this thing for compartmentalization of the ideologies of human
minds going on 24/7, you'd get a bit of illumination about the human
hierarchy and why folks like yourself so avidly support it (that is,
the segment you agree with).
It's like you live this movie-esque moralized fantasy life everyday,
Stevie, where I'd rightly expect you'd want to walk stoically down the
main street of Dodge City, slap some leather with the villain, put him
down, and have the townspeople swoon over your 'victory.' You keep
unconsciously looking for a fantasy of ethical purity and consistently
righteous behavior to believe in, and to put into some form of reality
here, in this chaotic world of gray tones, where black and white are
often elusive, or fleeting at best.

No I don't. In fact, I am able to admire the good works Jimmy Carter
has done since he left the presidency. And I have said nothing about
Gerald Ford that could be constued as "worshiping" him. For that
matter, I defy you to find something I've ever said about Bush that
could be construed as "worship" of him. I have no heroes. There is no
one (nor has there ever been anyone) who is mortal that I would ever
worship.

the rage of women to the assassination stage, for the first time, which
resulted in two attempts on his life, one by Sarah Jane Moore, the
other, by Lynette Fromme (a Manson follower). Both occurred in
September 1975, in California. The nation was is a nasty mood that
year, due in part to Nixon escaping punishment, the aftermath of the
Arab oil embargoes, and the general Watergate 'depressive mood.' Jerry
Ford can't be blamed for all the nation's emotional quagmire then, but
he didn't do much to relieve it.
President Carter disagreed with you. In Carter's inauguration address,
he said, "For myself and for our Nation, I want to thank my predecessor
for all he has done to heal our land." If nothing else, can't you agree
with Carter and give Ford credit for at least that?
Standardized gracious *****, Stevie, but even if Carter really
believed what he said, he could afford to be 'nice' -- he won the grand
prize. No, I don't think Ford played a significant role in healing the
wounds of Watergate. His pardon of Nixon dispelled any notion of doing
that.
Did you read what Ted Kennedy said when he presented Ford with the
Profiles in Courage award? Was that just Ted being gracious, or was he
wise enough to realize Ford had been correct after all?
Well...Stevie...I know you're such a big fan of Ed Kennedy that any
glowing 'tribute' to Ford he gave you'd just naturally regard it with
the utmost respect. LOL!!!
Actually, I asked you what you thought of Kennedy's tribute to Ford.
You answered it. Apparently you think both Carter and Kennedy are full
of crap. And 99% of the time, I couldn't agree more.
I'm not surprised you couldn't agree with me more -- you're into
following people loaded with false-imagery *****, Stevie...public
officials with big egos and rich powerful friends they do favors for.
The mistake you make here, your critical error in tactics for arguing
for the worship of these people, is that you usually assume the whole
world is divided into black and white.
No I don't. In fact, I am able to admire the good works Jimmy Carter
has done since he left the presidency. And I have said nothing about
Gerald Ford that could be constued as "worshiping" him. For that
matter, I defy you to find something I've ever said about Bush that
could be construed as "worship" of him. I have no heroes. There is no
one (nor has there ever been anyone) who is mortal that I would ever
worship.
You mean the Jimmy Carter that you just said was full of ***** 99% of
the time? LOL!!! The word 'worship' applies to your undying support of
human leaders with all sorts of machinations, fallibilities, psychoses,
corruption, et al, and vociferously, obsessively defending nearly every
slight against them in this forum...'a strong devotion and belief in'
is one definition of the word.
It doesn't have to be applied with an alternate definition that
describes a spiritual 'worship' of a non-human entity, or one that is
thought to be so.
It's interesting to note that your admiration for Ford has run smack
into some hard-reality news today that he said in a taped interview he
didn't think he would've started the Iraq War had he been President.
And, he added that he didn't think going around the planet with what he
called "hellfire damnation" on an adversary that didn't directly
threaten the USA' security was a wise thing to do.
So, Stevie, how do you feel about your praise for Ford now? A man who
essentially refutes the Iraq poliicy of Bush, and criticizes his
war-mongering fanaticism? I didn't like him for pardoning Nixon, as I
said, but I have some praise for his pre-presidential life and
retirement years -- especially his handling of the Michigan UFO
situation in 1966.
You're the no-so-artful dodger in the political ball park, Stevie...how
long can you keep going around ridiculously in a circle with your
ego-defensiveness? You have no heroes, you claim...I don't believe
that. Do we have to actually hear you use the word, 'hero,' to clearly
read and acknowledge your glowing praise of, admiration of, devotion
to, protectiveness of powerful human leaders here every week? And,
speaking of heroes, you've also got yourself, haven't you? Keep working
on building up that one...fighting the 'heroic' battle against 'lib
evil' in APN and elsewhere. LOL!!! :)) Kill Doc...kill Doc...kill
Doc...heeheehee...

aspects of a dead President, especially in the short-term aftermath, I
will refrain from mentioning the fact that he was unpopular for making
a deal with Nixon to pardon him from criminality in the Watergate
scandal (and thereby relieving him of going to prison, and thereby
subverting our due process system).
And, I will not mention he was notable in American history for bringing
the rage of women to the assassination stage, for the first time, which
resulted in two attempts on his life, one by Sarah Jane Moore, the
other, by Lynette Fromme (a Manson follower). Both occurred in
September 1975, in California. The nation was is a nasty mood that
year, due in part to Nixon escaping punishment, the aftermath of the
Arab oil embargoes, and the general Watergate 'depressive mood.' Jerry
Ford can't be blamed for all the nation's emotional quagmire then, but
he didn't do much to relieve it.
President Carter disagreed with you. In Carter's inauguration address,
he said, "For myself and for our Nation, I want to thank my predecessor
for all he has done to heal our land." If nothing else, can't you agree
with Carter and give Ford credit for at least that?
Standardized gracious *****, Stevie, but even if Carter really
believed what he said, he could afford to be 'nice' -- he won the grand
prize. No, I don't think Ford played a significant role in healing the
wounds of Watergate. His pardon of Nixon dispelled any notion of doing
that.
Did you read what Ted Kennedy said when he presented Ford with the
Profiles in Courage award? Was that just Ted being gracious, or was he
wise enough to realize Ford had been correct after all?
Well...Stevie...I know you're such a big fan of Ed Kennedy that any
glowing 'tribute' to Ford he gave you'd just naturally regard it with
the utmost respect. LOL!!!
Actually, I asked you what you thought of Kennedy's tribute to Ford.
You answered it. Apparently you think both Carter and Kennedy are full
of crap. And 99% of the time, I couldn't agree more.
I'm not surprised you couldn't agree with me more -- you're into
following people loaded with false-imagery *****, Stevie...public
officials with big egos and rich powerful friends they do favors for.
The mistake you make here, your critical error in tactics for arguing
for the worship of these people, is that you usually assume the whole
world is divided into black and white.
No I don't. In fact, I am able to admire the good works Jimmy Carter
has done since he left the presidency. And I have said nothing about
Gerald Ford that could be constued as "worshiping" him. For that
matter, I defy you to find something I've ever said about Bush that
could be construed as "worship" of him. I have no heroes. There is no
one (nor has there ever been anyone) who is mortal that I would ever
worship.
You mean the Jimmy Carter that you just said was full of ***** 99% of
the time? LOL!!! The word 'worship' applies to your undying support of
human leaders
I don't express "undying support" for human leaders. Oh, and I'm really
not interested in reading paragraph after paragraph after paragraph on
EACH AND EVERY reply you make.
I can't help with your ADD, Stevie...don't blame your correspondents
for the way they reply.
I might read an occasional long winded post from you, but not each and
every time.
Startin' to lose it, ain't ya?
Heeheeheeheeheeheeeheeheeheeheeheeheeheeheehee...

Lose what? What are you chortling about? Does having some strange

compassionate liberal are you? Oh thats right, the usual kind.

I feel like we've been married for years and grown very tired of each

carrying it to ridiculous lengths.
I feel we need a big change in our environment. Perhaps, we can get a
menage a trois going with Mondo...but lately he hates your guts. Or,
perhaps, we could ask Perseid to spice up our failing relationship, but he
doesn't like you much lately, either. I don't know who to turn to...so
many find you 'disagreeable.' The list keeps growing...
And this is as good a time as any, to let you know I'm getting tired of
you hogging the damned toilet here, too, dear...either ***** or get off the
pot.
