"Don't publish this until I'm dead."

[Ilsa]

Generally speaking, I try not to speak ill of the dead. But when someone like Ford writes a long opinion piece like this book that is being published, I think I'll change my mind. "Dear President Ford, no one gives a damn what you think anymore."

1. LOL

No shit!! Like we need to hear more from another dead/dead-in-the-head/dead-eyed Repukelican...

[NightWatcher]

2. the ultimate act of cowardice in a long life of cowardice

[mitchum]

19. You really did sum up the man

a perfectly apt discription

[karlrschneider]

Keepin' up the legacy of klutz...

3. Chris Matthews sure does.

Nothing gets him going more then the Clintons.

[Eurobabe]

8. Yeah he really has a hard on for both of them

Just watching Hairball now, and Tweety is wound tight tonight. :eyes:

[babylonsister]

4. I wonder if he left any reminisces about *. God knows we're not hearing

about them. :eyes: And if this guy is such a hot-stuff writer, what's he doing writing for the NY News? :crazy:

[kimmerspixelated]

6. That's what I was thinking.

WHo knows? Unless we read it. There might be some real dirt!

[Breeze54]

5. We all knew he was lying to the public, this confirms it.

:(

[yorgatron]

7. could this push him higher on the "worst presidents" list?

1.shrub
2.Nixon
3.Reagan
4.Hoover
5.Ford
maybe i should put him above Hoover now?

[Breeze54]

9. What does it matter, except for the current asshat? Any repub

should be on the Worst Presidents List !

[Renew Deal]

10. huh

I kind of like getting the dirt. Too bad we didn't have it sooner. It's a little gossipy, but it's political, so I can't resist.

[book_worm]

11. He didn't have the guts to do it when he was alive

so now that he's dead we are supposed to think he was a sage?

[Breeze54]

12. Ford didn't write the book.

His lies are quoted in it.

[book_worm]

14. I know he didn't write it, but he said to publish it after he died--he didn't have the guts to say

these things when he was alive.

[Breeze54]

17. My mistake. And yes, he was underhanded.

What an asshole!! :grr:

[Rex]

13. Well he said he was going to Hell for pardoning Nixon.

Guess he wanted something to watch on 666TV.

[Breeze54]

18. LOL! They're all watching!

All the Rethug lying asshole prezidents.

[SoCalDem]

15. Extreme Book-writing ...

It's the logical extension of what politicians & "news people" have been doing for ages.. They remain quiet while they are in a position to actually do something about or comment on an issue...actually withholding important facts that we should know about..and save them for "their book", which people then have to pay money for.
This is escpecially annoying to me in the news arena, since they are PAID to ferret out the news and report on it while it's... well.. news.. Instead they tease us all with a dribble here and a dribble there, but the best stuff they save for themselves..

Truthfully.. Ford was a milquetoast guy who was handpicked by the crook he later pardoned.. That's what Ford will be remembered for.. and he liked to play golf.. ho-hum

16. Revenge is a dish best served cold

I'd say this is pretty damn cold.
