A woman rang in to say that her husband had been bipolar with great highs but terrible lows and, following medication, had lost the lows...but the highs had gone too and the exciting man she loved to be with, and had married, was now just a bland shell of the man he had previously been. It was sad to listen to.

      Regardless of what people think about Pres Nixon, no one can deny he fought to where he got in life and was a prolific reader. He also was very intelligent and was the last of our presidents who personally authored books without ghost writers. It’s sad that he had such a huge flaw of paranoia. People point out his faults but fail to recognize the good he did. He opened up relationships w China that had a 5th of the world’s population, kept Chile from becoming communist and supported Gen Pinochet, who was a right wing dictator, was brutal, but no worse than the communists. Pinochet set up capitalism and Chile is still one of the most prosperous of S American countries. Last Nixon established the EPA which has its faults but has cut back on air and water pollution.

      @@YasukeNakamoto Then you should look more into what he actually did as POTUS instead of forming your opinion on him based on 60-second clips from interviews that his estate chose specifically because it frames him in a positive light.
      You realize he's the only POTUS who was ever going to be FULLY impeached and potentially sent to prison, right? The only reason it didn't happen is because after being impeached and once the ultimate result of his impending trial became clear, he quickly resigned from office so that his Vice POTUS could immediately give him a Presidential pardon upon being sworn-in. Which is exactly what happened (even though Gerald Ford said numerous times he wouldn't give Nixon a pardon if he resigned or was fully impeached....then Nixon resigned and the first thing Ford did was pardon Nixon.
      Which is an admission of guilt on Nixon's part, as you don't need a Presidential Pardon if you are innocent of any crimes.
      That's not even touching on how he and his POTUS campaign intentionally sabotaged peace talks that could have ended the Vietnam War during Johnson's administration so that his opponent Hubert Humphrey wouldn't get the boost in polls that would naturally have resulted from successful peace talks and so that he could then engage in peace talks after being elected and thus take credit for them.
      Oh yeah and that little matter of personally orchestrating a breaking & entry and burglary of the DNC headquarters in 1972 as part of his efforts to illegally sabotage his opponent's POTUS campaign.
      And the way his administration specifically created the war on drugs to try and derail the civil rights movement and anti war movement, with members of his own administration flat out admitting that they waged a propaganda campaign to associate blacks with heroin and college students with cannabis and then criminalized both drugs as heavily as possible so they could have the pretext needed to smash up the headquarters of civil rights movement chapters and anti war groups by claiming they got an "anonymous tip" that therte was drug trafficking going on.
      The list goes on. Dick Nixon is objectively the most sleazy and corrupt POTUS of the modern era.

      Nixon, wanting to distance himself from that same 3 letter agency hired to assassinate Castro and his brother, was framed and setup with the Watergate scandal. Only just recently was a recording of it disclosed. Nixon was a great man and president.

    - The first US president to ever visit China which ended 25 years of no diplomatic ties or communication between the US and China
    - He reduced tensions with Russia
    - SALT I (the Strategic Arms Limitation Talks Agreement) and Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty were signed by the US and Russia under Nixon. De-escalating the Arms Race and creating a safer world.
    Basically, no President in the last 50-70 years did more for US National Security or had such a lasting positive effect on the daily lives of American Citizens, yet all most high school textbooks typically teach about him is Watergate. They never want to teach that for his reelection campaign he won by 18 million votes, 60.7% of the popular vote, the widest margin in US history for a presidential election. He was a Great American President they we probably take for granted more than any other because of a media and department of education smear campaign that doesn't look at his body of work. Not to mention he served honorably as an officer in WWII and received two Medals of Commendation from the Navy and Marine Corps for "meritorious and efficient performance of duty as Officer in Charge of the South Pacific Combat Air Transport Command" and "meritorious service, tireless effort and devotion to duty." We would all do ourselves a favor to reexamine his accomplishments.

      Some call Social Security an entitlement. We paid into it with every job we ever had. The man I married had a job since he was 8 years old. He sold melons door to door, he was a paperboy, he worked in fast food and in National Shirt Shop in his first years in High School. So he paid a lot into it! He worked until June and he died in July. He was 70 years old. I also worked 31 years in the public and much more and raised three children.

      Since Barack Obama has been in the White House, high ranking military officers have been removed from their positions at a rate that is absolutely unprecedented.Things have gotten so bad that a number of retired generals are publicly speaking out about the 'purg' of the U.S. military that they believe is taking place. As you will see below, dozens of highly decorated military leaders have been dismissed from their positions over the past few years. So why is this happening? What is going on right now is absolutely crazy especially during a time of peace. Is there a deliberate attempt to reshape the military and remove those who don't adhere to the proper 'viewpoints' ? Does someone out there feel a need to get officers that won't cooperate out of the way?
      Throughout world history, whatever comes next after a military purge is never good.
      If this continues, what is the U.S. military going to look like in a few years?
      Perhaps you are reading this and you think that 'purge' is too strong a word for what is taking place. Well, just consider the following quotes from some very highly decorated retired officers:
      -Retired Army Major General Paul Vallely:The White House protects their own.That's why they stalled on the investigation into fast and furious, Benghazi and Obamacare.He's intentionally weakening and gutting our military, Pentagon and reducing us as a superpower, and anyone in the ranks who disagrees or speaks out is being purged.
      -Retired Army Major General Patrick Brady: There is no doubt he (Obama) is intent on emasculating the military and will fire anyone who disagrees with him.
      -Retired Army Lt. General William G. Jerry Boykin:Over the past three years, it is unprecedented for the number of four-star generals to be relieved of duty, and not necessarily relieved for cause.
      -Retired Navy Captain Joseph John:I believe there are more than 137 officers who have been forced out or given bad evaluation reports so they will never make Flag (officer), because of their failure to comply to certain views.
      A Pentagon official who asked to remain nameless because they were not authorized to speak on the matter said even young officers, down through the ranks have been told not to talk about Obama or the politics of the White House. They are purging everyone and if you want to keep your job just keep your mouth shut. Now this trend appears to be accelerating.
      General Vallely's comment:
      Absolutely every communist regime on the planet did this as soon as they got in power. I am surprised this communist traitor with his feet up on our furniture in the white house hasn't done this until now!
      SO WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO ABOUT IT? I am doing my part. How about forwarding this.
      Paul (General Paul Vallely)
