Yeah, Grenada was a real military coup for the US

Many of the US military deaths were friendly fire when the airforce bombed their own guys.

Those liberal dinky-doo's just can't get over the fact that Ronald Reagan was a Republican and all they have to compare to him are the likes of J.
Carter, B. Clinton and Obama.

Farbauti,
I was commenting (cynically) on a particular act of President Reagan's. That is not meant to disrespect a "dead US president". Obviously I have a
particular political philosophy, but my respect for most politicians is pretty low. It is a dirty game with too many "political capital" debts and
obligatory paybacks.They are governed by special interest lobbyists and I rarely feel represented by them.
My comment was in response to a conversation already started by others on this string. And yes, this has wandered far from Baja. That is not good.
Please do not think you made a "mistake by joining". I welcome your opinions.
I do not consider political opinions to be uncivil, whereas personal attacks on other Nomads would be, in my opinion.( I am not referring to you in
the previous sentence). I welcome open dialog and opinions of all persuasions.
Sometimes I do respond with sarcasm; an attempt at humor. Sometimes it is not taken well and I apologize if any offense is taken.

Bullsheeit, Farbutt...There are no presidents free of criticism here...hopefully, nowhere.
If you can't understand that, you should do what you suggested........back up and move out. AMF

Me too, DT! I feel like Rodney Dangerfield. "I don't get no respect" for my age. I thought the babes would consider me harmless and thereby let down
their guard. But they see that look in my eye (that I have tried to conceal to no avail).
