Right up until he died, he maintained that his stance didn't move at all, but that the Overton Window (my term, not his) continually shifted left until he found himself on the right. Kind of like what happened with Reagan. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Originally Posted By TheOTHERmaninblack:

History indicates that Conservative Americans only have three speeds: silence, peaceful protest rallies, and Total Industrialized Warfare. They excel at the latter.

At that age I managed to navigate that huge ass airport by way ot the plane train and make my connecting flight alone. I got to go up front on both planes. The first plane was a puddle hopper and the cigarette smoke was so thick you could barely see the cockpit from the rear of the plane. Different times.
