RE: Who is the finest first lady of them all? - Beaker - 03-06-2016 If we're talking fine as in "damn, she's fine" then Jackie Kennedy....I'd still dig that shit up and hit it today.

I'd think many other first ladies did much more to be ranked above her if that is your two best reasons.

A First Lady should be glamorous: You do not get much more glamorous than a Hollywood actress. A First Lady should have a social consciousness; The Just Say No campaign is one of the most known drug abuse awareness campaigns ever launched. She was one of the biggest advocates of Stem-Cell research and she was personal care-tacker of a Former President. The good thing about list is: You can have yours and I can have mine. Not sure I'd say yours is wrong.

Nor did I say you were wrong. Just interesting that those were your two reason. I'd say Mrs. Kennedy was more glamorous and that "Just Say No" was a failure as a campaign. But you are correct that it can come down to personal opinions.

You would be ok with his wife taking over a position she wasn't elected? Wasn't Reagan suffering from Alzheimer's during his term and had a lot of help from Nancy?

It would depend on the specific help. Was she making decisions as if she was president and her husband was fully incapable? Did george bush have a role?

When you provide me with evidence that she basically took over the office of the president like ER did then we can have that discussion. Of course you won't even read the book that lays out what happened lol RE: Who is the finest first lady of them all? - GMDino - 03-07-2016 (03-07-2016, 09:11 AM)StLucieBengal Wrote: When you provide me with evidence that she basically took over the office of the president like ER did then we can have that discussion. Of course you won't even read the book that lays out what happened lol The book you suggested makes assumptions. But those assumptions agree with your strongly held view so you don't question them and accept them as fact. So we have confirmed that Mrs. Reagan used an astrologer to decide when Ronnie should do certain things and who he could meet with and when...but he said that didn't affect his policies. But it had to. If she decided who he talked to and when that had to affect his decision making. But he was so enamored with "Mommie" that he probably didn't even realize it. this article was from when St. Ronnie was still in office. http://www.nytimes.com/1988/05/04/us/white-house-confirms-reagans-follow-astrology-up-to-a-point.html Quote:White House Confirms Reagans Follow Astrology, Up to a Point Please also remember that he couldn't remember anything about the sales of arms to Iran. So to suggest that she was pulling strings behind the scenes is no more fanciful that your assertion that Elanor Roosevelt should have been put in jail.

So I guess you are trying to explain bad behavior with what you perceive to be bad behavior? They followed astrology.... I bet they also read their fortune cookies and had a laugh when they went to eat Chinese. As far as what ER did or didn't do.... When you want to join me on the topic just give it a quick read. It shouldn't cut into your meme time.

I'm using a real example of the president and his wife admitting they use astrology to determine aspects of his decision making. And admitting that SHE is the one who made those decisions for the POTUS. Versus A book that claims to make a better guess at the physical ailments of FDR some 50+ years after he died that you are using as solid proof that Elanor Roosevelt was making all the decisions for four terms. If you can't read one article correctly why would I believe you read an entire book. And understood it?

Don't you know there's gotta be something sinister about Nancy Reagan, her husband was Republican after all. I believe there is a difference between image and reputation. She protected his reputation, something a good wife would and should do. Consider Hildebeest Clinton and her task of trying to protect her husbands image...one such instance when she the called the half dozen women or so who came forward accusing Billy of sexual harassment and rape "sluts" or something of the sort. Yeah they were all just gold diggers. Then post Monica Lewinsky publicly announcing a spiritual meeting with The Very Very Very Reverend Jesse Jackson at the White House...then to emerge hours later in front of cameras for all to see ..Hillary, Bill, Chelsea, and the dear reverend all holding hands smiling, we are all good, everything is forgiven. Consider the hypocrisy of the left and how it reared it's head in this case. No woman feminazi group or person spoke up against Clinton in behalf of those women. The criteria wasn't met. Clinton needed to be a Republican. Nothing here sinister about Nancy Reagan. http://www.slate.com/articles/news_and_politics/obit/2016/03/nancy_reagan_obituary_how_she_protected_ronald_reagan.html RE: Who is the finest first lady of them all? - GMDino - 03-07-2016 (03-07-2016, 12:10 PM)Vlad Wrote: Lol...Dino's meme time. So because you don't like Hillary or anything she has ever done then Nancy is OK by you. It is interesting that to defend Nancy you attack and name call someone else rather than just based in a fact. I mean Hillary sticking with her husband shouldn't be viewed any worse than Nancy controlling all of his meeting...right?
