I understand that each event involved politicians, but sometimes it's best to appreciate things for what that mean to us as Americans beyond the political sphere.
New,
Not trying to score any "political points". Just find todays idea of a federal government as intrusive and wrought with political favoritism and featherbedding. One of the Democrats Idols, JFK, would be considered a radical conservative by todays standards.
If I were king for a day, I would institute two time term limits for ANY voted in office from union president to US President and all positions in between. Someone needs to be concerned about the future of the US, and not just getting reelected.
