I suppose that to someone that is a conservative like me anyone on the left would seem far left. I stand corrected.

and you are really questioning why you would be insulted?

I never knew Eisenhower was so old back then.

Every American should have to watch his farewell address especially the part about the military industrial complex.The entire definition of being "conservative" went out of the window before Reagan.
And a lot of those ideals have steadily went into the toilet.

To me the rise of the wacko right coincided with Goldwater's presidential campaign. I mean how many people heard of the John Birch Society before Goldwater ran for president. It was already there in a very minor status until he ran. Kind of like the alt-right's rise to power now.i suppose that if someone were a true conservative they would realize they have been sold fear, hate and lies by the Republican party for decades and see that Donald Trump and the alt-right are the culmination of those fear, hate and lies and he has nothing to do with being truly conservative.
The military industrial complex was born of necessity.Every American should have to watch his farewell address especially the part about the military industrial complex.
Yes WW2 taught us that a strong defense is necessary to the security of the nation. He was warning the public to not allow for it to supersede other concerns and our defense spending is the highest percentage of GDP among western nations.The military industrial complex was born of necessity.
I like how he spoke about balance. We have certainly lost that.

Ike couldn't get elected today for anything in the republican party, the republican platform back then sounds like a far left manifesto compared to the current republicans.
He was in his early seventies. But now vane guys get the eyes tucked, dye their hair, get hair from the back of top of their neck and put it on their head. Shit, some of those uber rich elderly males look like the walking embalmed. I'll take old grand daddy looking Eisenhower any day, Hell, I'm starting to look like him myself.I never knew Eisenhower was so old back then.
Haha, what I mean is that during his prime from when I remember him in history he was already pretty old. The values of people from that time and people like him are 2 generations ago, not just 1 like I thought. Its actually pretty remarkable. Einhower's kids are about up for retirement. The world is alot further removed from the values of that time than I thought. To me... I just thought it was remarkable is all.You ought to see George Washington these days.
He's really showing his age.
Donald Trump’s campaign has confirmed their candidate’s surprise guest for tomorrow’s debate: President Obama’s Kenyan born half brother, Malik Obama – a Trump supporter.
Hopefully this time he won't acknowledge him as "my African American".lol what the f? his guest for the next debate is....Obama's half brother.
One of my best times in P & N happened years ago in some war related thread where I took that speech and put contemporary references in where it might reveal its source and posted it as my opinion. I was told I didn't have the military judgment or experience to make such a case. Naturally, had I posted it with source some other excuse wouYou ought to see George Washington these days.
