Here is an objective observation. Only Nobel Peace prize winner to bomb another Peace prize winner. Wonder if that will be remembered?

I hope so, but in the context of the average American History textbook, no way, and unfortunately that matter the most.

He wanted to drop atomic bombs on China for a preemptive attack. There is no way you can argue this to me. Truman tells him no, MacArthur says Turman=Chamberlain, so Truman fires him. It was the right thing to do and saved us from WWIII.

Yes he did, little overboard but understandable. Truman wouldn't even compromise with a conventional bombing campaign, Truman didn't even want to cross the Imjim river. You can thank Truman for the existence of N. Korea.

Or I can thank the 260,000 screaming chinamen that poured across the board once they saw N.Korea about to fall.

You could say IKE was more responsible for North Korea than Truman was.

Not a republican, but if everyone is going to try and nitpick everything you have ever said and done. It would behoove you to point out the clown in the White House currently is the absolute worst president we have had in close to a century.

Everything Obama has done or said has been nit picked. The issue is: he's not running for president.

All of the candidates have things they say nit picked. But with the one you're trying to defend, no one has to nit pick anything because of all the ignorant **** that comes out of his mouth.

I don't agree with a lot of what Trump has to say, but maybe the populace has had enough of the community organizing type of government and have had enough of the touchy feely crap that comes out of their mouths. Ignorant? Maybe. But you can't dismiss his popularity as being a fluke at this point. Many have had enough of the douchebag in the WH and his potential narcissistic replacement.

OK, you and -88 have both referred to Cankles ad a neocon. Please explain this stance
Click to expand...

Her foreign policy is exactly like Rubio's, or Bush's or whatever neocon we want to point to.

Neocons love government provided health care (Trump is saying replace Obamacare with a similar program, W passed $40T in unfunded medicare liability, etc.).

She's been bought by big pharma (after villainizing big pharma for years).

Valid point... but Obama's Nobel Peace prize was pretty much the equivalent of Kaitlyn Jenner's Courage Award.

Hell, at least Jenner actually did something that required a modicum of courage, regardless of how undeserving it may have been in comparison to the other nominees.

Obama got the award based on false rhetoric.

If you think Trump gives a rat's ass about anything you want, you're unfathomably gullible. Dude only cares about promoting Trump.

I wasn't talking about myself. I have said a couple of times on here that I don't like Trump. It is obvious to me that MILLIONS of people are buying what he is selling however. They deserve representation.

I don't want anything from the government. I want nothing from any politician but to be left alone. I have taken care of myself financially for as long as I will live......unless I live to be about 135, and then it will be close because I am retired, and 70 years would be a rather long retirement to fund. Even then, I might be okay if inflation doesn't get too bad, or if I get a good return on investments.

Yeah, way more deserving than Lauren Hill...

Sex change = courage

Raising over a million dollars for cancer research prior to dying of inoperable brain cancer = not brave enough in the face of political correctness

And Jenner didn't go back on what won her the award.
