The Miser 18 Posted December 23, 2012 I think that he is a must list, with Bob Dole; but I do think this board and the DL will lean towards having conservatives die quicker then libs. No sample siz but I've been looking at this page long enough to observe the dislike Thatcher hope bet (Nancy R. will make the next list). B Graham is a good pick but I bet he is higher that Jimmy Carter. The DL picks are more leaning then the DDP or the news after...just saying. I don't like any politician so I have no ground to defend. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

P.S. there is a little heatwave in Victoria at the moment and I completing this post having just come in from the wading pool for a fresh beer - I think I'll be doing this for the rest of the night.

msc 18,436 Posted December 28, 2012 "Barbara and I mourn the loss of a true American patriot and one of the great military leaders of his generation."A distinguished member of that Long Gray Line hailing from West Point, General Schwarzkopf, to me, epitomised the 'duty, service, country' creed that has defended our freedom and seen this great nation through our most trying international crises. "More than that, he was a good and decent man - and a dear friend. Barbara and I send our condolences to his wife Brenda and his wonderful family." BBC's attributed comment by Bush is fairly lucid for someone on his way out immediately...unless they knew this was coming and had it to hand. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Phantom 2,532 Posted December 28, 2012 I'm not sure this is the right thread, but General Norman Schwarzkopf, who commanded George Bush's US forces during the first Gulf War, has died. I was going to start going through the list of people connected with H.W. Bush this weekend and Schwarzkopf was going to be the first. He could have had the decency to at least hold on for a couple more days or given us some indication as to his current health. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
