Is this the high point in his legacy? http://www.whitehouse.gov/lgbt Does this group claim him as their man? Do you think he will get an Aircraft Carrier named in his honor? What LGBT member of Congress would start the ball rolling?
For Sly. We have the: USS Eisenhower, Roosevelt, Lincoln, Washington, Truman, Reagan, and Bush. And I will tell you Sly, I have served 6 years in the US Navy, 40 years in business and several years working for myself. I know of no one that thinks this fellow is of the stature of the names on that list. But perhaps they exist. Now if you don't think this is a valid topic for an off topic forum, then step up and ban my ass, you have the hammer. Bringing a snarky ass comment just won't cut it.
LOL! You posted this in the Blazer basketball section of this forum instead of the Off Topic section. I moved your thread to the correct section and then made my comment. Please note that I said main forum. I do think your post is a valid topic for an off topic forum. That's why I moved it there.
No USS Kennedy, Johnson, Carter, or Clinton? Did the Republicans forget or something? And why won't Republican socialists sell naming rights to private enterprise? The USS Dunkin Doughnuts. The Comcast Pentagon. The USS UPS For All Your Shipping Needs.
So why isn't the "Eugene" thread moved here, or the slimy thread by crandc smearing Mike Rice Sr. for the idiocy of his son? Mike Rice Jr. doesn't deserve a thread on the main forum, and KS's thread about Eugene is baffling to me in terms of being on the forum.
I already knew that Carter got a small one (not an ICBM sub), and that Kennedy got a big one. I was just picking on Marazul's sentence. Strange how every Republican, even a minor one like Ford, gets a supercarrier (except Nixon, who still embarrasses them), while Johnson (who was brought down by his party for being pro-war) and Clinton (the Republicans got ships while alive) have been left out. When Johnson finally gets only a destroyer in 2018, he'll have been dead 47 years. Republican Theodore Roosevelt has a supercarrier. Democrat Franklin Roosevelt, a generation closer in time with WW2, and stopping the Depression from destroying us, gets a destroyer.
What, you weren't picking apart that sentence to get a reaction from the poster? Besides, I'm the only one here who can genuinely make you upset, because I've been reading the same nonchalant act for 10 years. When you get called on your bullshit posts and bullshit approach, you get angry, because at time you want to be serious, yet you're viewed as a poster who posts nonsense 99% of the time.
In the thread about the ignore feature, you came in only 3rd place. Jealous, you now pretend to be with the board majority. Dude! You are disliked by many. Read their comments. Wake up! I am probably your best friend on the board! Don't blow it with jealousy over who's #1.
Why do you think I care at all about who "dislikes" me on this board? Obviously, after 15 years on the internet, I kind of know my posting style, and how it aggravates some people. At least I've stayed consistent. You've gone from a serious poster on ESPN to a goofball act here. Why?
The vast majority of my writing here is serious, not humor. Not that there's anything wrong with it. Speaking of that, why do you post so much in the gay threads?
