Ike screwed over the two people responsible for what is likely, the most important project in the history of the planet, ever.

Eisenhower was one of only 20 men who was ever awarded this Soviet medal. The award was supposed to have been made with diamonds but when he took it to a jeweler he found out the stones were fakes. Which is one of the most, "Russians being Russians" things I've ever heard of.

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By PoiDog: I was born earlier in the same year he was elected. So for most of his terms, I was just a kid. My memories of his terms were influenced by people and reading done later. They're positive, especially compared to what followed. On a school trip in '66, we had his Gettysburg farm house pointed out, but I don't think he was in residence then. His warning about the Military Industrial Complex still rings true all of these years later. Unlike several recent presidents, he was a patriot and loved his country. Created the same monster, did nothing to stop it. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By MikeJGA: He acquiesced to the OSS killing Patton. Spent 20+ years building up the MIC then gave a half harted warning on his way out. He acquiesced to the CIAs Bay of Pigs invasion then stalled it long enough to drop it in JFKs lap. He got us involved with Vietnam. He condemned Israel, UK and France in the Suez cannal war. In short, Deep State POS with a good PR machine. Amen! |
