    Looks like a bogus document to me, there is terminology in it that would never be used in an actual court document

    Yeah, even the Q-anon people would think that stuff is too crazy to believe.

    Must of been written by a rival party to discredit him then?

    Pretty sure the Q people know all about those charges. Some of those charges were even reported back in the 80s in the Washington times the MSM DC news paper that is still in business today.

    Just did a little reading up on the subject. Seems as tho the entire human race is getting to be a conspiracy. My next train stop is 20 years (I hope!) down the tracks and when I get off at the station, I wont look back. Its sad to see what we have all evolved into.:( ws

    Interesting tidbit about the '92 election. H.W.'s campaign had planned a whistle stop tour in the southeast just weeks prior to the election and it was scheduled to stop in my hometown of Gainesville, Ga. The Secret Service had everything mapped out, which streets to cover, which buildings to scope out and set up lookouts, etc. What the Secret Service forgot was the fact that opening day of deer season was the day he was to stop in our town and the locals were all over the place in their pickup trucks with rifles racked in the rear windows and in their cases in vehicles. The train kept a rollin'.

    Funny!! I met the train in Cornelia (they let me keep my pocketknife at the checkpoint) and I stood about 30 feet away from him. Unfortunately, Mr. Bush made a statement that cost him my vote. At the time our district of Northeast Georgia was very happily represented by a well respected local democrat named Nathan Deal, who was opposed in the House race by a right wing crackpot loon, yet GHWB suggested we all vote for him. His picking the loon because of ignorance or party instead of keeping his mouth shut was all I needed to vote for Perot. (I took Bush’s endorsement personally; the Deal family was local. Two of his kids were classmates, his wife was a substitute teacher at my high school, and he was very much involved in the school. Good people. He switched party a year or two later, served in Washington as a legislator and is now our Governor. The loon? No one knows...)

    People who are open to at least hearing another point of view, even if they disagree with it.

    Eight years of that point of view convinced me I didn't want to hear any more of it.

    Where are we Keith? Let's face it, all politicians are dirty in one respect or another.

    By the way, you can keep your doctor.

    1972Mach1 Just some M.M.O.G. guy.....

    No matter who is in office, I get up, go to work, pay my bills, eat some food, drink beer, go to sleep, repeat. I'll have some fun in there, too. It really, really, really doesn't matter in my world. I pay little to no attention to politics or the "news". Honestly, my life has changed very little over the 21 years I've been considered an adult, no matter who has been in office. I have my own political views and I'm sure most of you know where I stand, but I have too much going on to pay attention to. When a good man dies, I acknowledge it.....

    We will wait for history to analyze this chapter, and it’s not going to be kind.

    This thread has run its course to commemorate the passing of a former President. The moderators do not wish to sort through and moderate the political stuff now being injected into this thread. For this reason the thread is closed.
