I can't help but think that Kennedy and Eisenhower were our last 2 great presidents/military leaders. Both had combat experience and had abundant common sense. I loved Reagan too, but he was just another good ol' boy like Bush.

Is this Iso?

I don't get your point at all, and probably don't care, but a) why would a decent person post something like that and b) Paula Dean got fired and pilloried for saying that word one time almost 30 years ago.

Oops, Iso shot from the lip again. It is Paula Deen, it wasn't 30 years ago, and she fairly recently had the level of cluelessness to be planning a civil war dinner party with the black servers dressed up as slaves.

What do you expect from an overweight southern woman who thinks that the diet she expouses is healthy? Here's her own words--from the new South and the post-racial world:

Quote:
Lawyer: Do you recall using the words “really southern plantation wedding”? Deen: Yes, I did say I would love for Bubba to experience a very southern style wedding, and we did that. We did that.
Lawyer: Okay. You would love for him to experience a southern style plantation wedding?
Deen: Yes.

Lawyer: That’s what you said?
Deen: Well, something like that, yes. And -–

Laywer: Okay. And is that when you went on to describe the experience you had at the restaurant in question?
Deen: Well, I don’t know. We were probably talking about the food or –- we would have been talking about something to do with service at the wedding, and –-

...

Lawyer: Is there any possibility, in your mind, that you slipped and used the word “n----r”?
Deen: No, because that’s not what these men were. They were professional black men doing a fabulous job.

Lawyer: Why did that make it a -– if you would have had servers like that, why would that have made it a really southern plantation wedding?

...

Deen: Well, it –- to me, of course I’m old but I ain’t that old, I didn’t live back in those days but I’ve seen the pictures, and the pictures that I’ve seen, that restaurant represented a certain era in America.

Lawyer: Okay.
Deen: And I was in the south when I went to this restaurant. It was located in the south.

Lawyer: Okay. What era in America are you referring to?
Deen: Well, I don’t know. After the Civil War, during the Civil War, before the Civil War.

On the original subject of America being a laughingstock, this is nothing compared to Gingrichs pursuit of a blowjob. The so called liberal press made that worldwide nonstop news 24/7 for almost a year.
Some foreigners told me that it made regular Americans seem more human to see that we had ass(Wink&es hounding us in our country just like they did.

Sorry wrong thread.
