Well, I’m thinking about making the 4 hour trek up to The Boat for the first time in a long time.

There is something very cool about The Boat. I can’t help to shake the feeling we may have met each other at some point.

I’d like to think we’d enjoy a glass of beer at Ragnar’s or preferably the dive on the lower North side of the mountain. That place reminds me of Dana’s!

The national commander of the VFW on the former president's remarks about the Medal of Honor:

These asinine comments not only diminish the significance of our nation’s highest award for valor, but also crassly characterizes the sacrifices of those who have risked their lives above and beyond the call of duty.

So who are y’all voting for? The crotchety old crook narcissist, or the communist incompetent cringy crook?

Paul, I had to search to actually find Trump’s comments and after doing so I realized that you are not to be taken seriously.

Don’t take me seriously. No problem.
But as a lifetime member of the VFW, I would urge you to take the words of the National Commander seriously.
Those weren’t my words. Perhaps you couldn’t tell.
They were his.

So wait, you were in a war fighting communism, now you are voting for it?

Nice deflection.

Thanks.

I happen to know a lot of recent Veterans and I will not speak for them.

My thoughts. The quote is not nearly as nefarious as you make it. It was more about how most MoH winners are awarded posthumously. Which is wrong.

His comments are indefensible.
