Though I think Reagan served more honorably as a union president and as a soldier than as a politician (which pretty much destroyed his reputation and permanently tainted his legacy; after he got elected to Governor of California he stopped being honest about acting. He should have won an Oscar for Best Actor for his 1981-1989 role). >> W (whatever you think of him, he *does* have moral >> fortitude). > > ..huh???

"It's the right thing to do if the contractor's shareholders profit." I deplore this political climate as well. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
