Um, 50 years from 1941 was 1991, the GWH Bush administration, and 50
years from 1945 was 1995, the Clinton administration. Which one did
you have in mind?


I believe that should be GHW Bush.

He was, what one could consider, a Classical Hispanic-American
Philosopher. He did remain a Spanish Citizen throughout his life.

Yes, but Bill has been out of office for some time now so it is time
to let it go.



Care to get specific there?


Or are you just one of the anal retentive types that equates oral sex
with attempted genocide?

I was as specific as was the email to which I replied.



Um, no you weren't

Well, the rise of th eThird Reich puts it firmly in Reagans era, actually.

And lets not forget the cow who seemed to think it was a good idea to put
an airplane load of civilians in harm's way for a clearly military
objective.

Does it matter which administration it was? The United States is not
Nazi Germany and never has been. The assertion that any administration
was like the Nazis is reprehensible in the extreme.

Not a different administration, just transposed initials.

Naming a name is far more specific than the mythical "administration."
