Post #158,756 by dmarker 6/7/04 6:21:23 AM Reply	Tis only today I twigged. Ifn u'd said Teflon, Ida known who I like the old bastard. Not many can smile to the nation while they wipe people out (Contras in Nicaragua). Not many can look congress in the face - tell them a barefaced lie, & get clean away with it despite everyone knowing the he lied (IRAN Affair). I still liked him. They didn't call him the teflon pres for nothing. History will judge him kindly, although he was the face of the people who took down the USSR. That has it good and bad sides (I lean to the good). Ahh well - he made life interesting. Doug M _________________________________________________________ "Blinding ignorance does mislead us. O! Wretched mortals, open your eyes!". -- Leonardo Da Vinci
