"Who am I? Why am I here?"


Just reminded of the last Admiral to run for high office.

Great resume, not great on TV. Will Wes be treated as harshly?

3. I hate to admit it,
but when Stockdale said that line I laughed for five mintues.

Seems like times were more "innocent" back then, strange to say.

5. just a thought....
reminded me of something that really bothered me in '92 regarding the press treatment of Adm. Stockdale...I would have liked to seen any of those media whores make it through an 8-year stay at the Hanoi Hilton, then see how stable they appeared on TV. Made me sick to my stomach.

If those media jackals can disrespect and ridicule a prisoner of war, I shudder to think what they'll do to Clark. And I'm a Dean supporter, by the way.
