  1. They knew in the early 1950's this was some really nasty toxic stuff. The powers that be ignored the warnings, however. Back in 1990 I worked at Admiral Zumwalt's new home. I was unaware at the time he was the Commander of the U.S. Naval forces from 1968 to1970 in Vietnam. He ordered the increased use of agent orange to help along the rivers. He son was of those on the patrol boats. His son would die from the exposure to Agent orange. It also has affected his grandchildren.
  2. if he was in Vietnam there is a good chance he was exposed to agent orange at some point. That chemical was so toxic. How they ever approved that chemical to be sprayed all around are men is unbelievable. It was used to kill the thick underbrush, but it also killed are soldiers.
  3. War is "hell". War is "hell". War should be avoided at all costs. President Reagan had it right. Peace through strength.
  4. No one should have gone to Vietnam. Losing well over a half million Americans for what reason? Worst mistake in American history.
  5. I have a hard time finding fault with anyone who tried to stay out of going to Vietnam. The worst military debacle in American history. 58,281 names on the Wall in Washington DC. Over 94,000 Vietnam vets died from suicide after coming home. Over 300,000 died from being sprayed with Agent Orange and ingesting it in their food and water. To top it off they were treated (by Americans) like dirt when they arrived home from Vietnam. The way our leadership had our military fight the war the war was criminal. Read up on it. One of the awards I received in high school was in honor of a former wrestler who was killed in Vietnam.
  6. Reporting seems a little off. It concerned 2 homes. But they both were considered secondary homes by the bank. If you have 2 homes one is your main residence the other is the secondary home. Maybe just a typo. I didn't know Cook was gone. I thought she was still there.
  7. Fever has shown some real grit and perseverance playing without Clark and 3 other teammates. I don't generally watch the WNBA, but I started following them since Clark moved up from college last year.
  8. Last sentence. Why I was wrong. Just helping.
  9. Reflect Politics has like 4 followers. She laid out a bunch of her opinions. She is quite the show boater. It's all about her.
  10. You are correct it was not the FCC. It was the ABC franchise holders. They are under no obligation to run what ABC sends them or have the right to refuse them which they did.
  11. Beating Yoshida was incredible. As you know she has 16 Olympic and World Gold medals. It Just might be the best win of all time for the women.
  12. You aren't the least bit spiteful are you.
  13. But the Liberals aren't in charge. Elections have consequences. I wonder who made that statement famous.
  14. The Zoo just put out the CLOSED for renovations sign. Maybe North Korea is looking for a very capable person to add to their country or maybe Iran.
  15. It's too bad we have American Football. We would probably have the top 25 heavyweight wrestlers in the world.
  16. He does and 5 gold medals.
  17. Burroughs has 7 gold medals. She also tied with Kyle Snyder with 5.
  18. Isn't it 5 Gold for her now. 1 Olympic and 4 World? Total of 11 medals.
  19. Inciting violence with hateful speech. Threatening violence with hateful speech. This does not fall under free speech. I'm sure a little time in jail with some friendly roommate's might be just what the doctor ordered.
  20. They tried twice so far. Only missed by 3/8 of an inch the first time. The second time the assassin screwed up by sticking the barrel of his rifle through the fence 6 inches. Otherwise Trump would have died.
  21. So you live under a rock with no indoor plumbing. Just out doing a little baiting last night I see.
  22. Or in a box 6 feet underground.
  23. Now after a multitude of poor decisions he will get the death penalty. Poor decisions have consequences.
  24. A what age do you become accountable for your actions? At what age can you stop (or should stop) blaming your parents for your failures or your poor decisions?
