I posted pros and cons, while stating my opinion briefly. While I can respect the fact that he was the leader of our country at one time and he has passed on, I think we as Americans should look at his whole presidency and not only the pick and choose the policies and practices we agreed with.
Growing up in a military area I can appreciate the funding and dedication he provided to the military. But I can also disagree with his stance on not funding AIDS research because he thought it was a gay disease.
I choose not to respond to Rudey because he can make offensive statement but have his posting rights rejected for stating his opinion unlike some others on this board. I don't have a problem listening or even considering another's opinion,I think that's how we grow as people, I just don't wish to give certain individuals on here my energy.
