Ike and Mamie Eisenhower

Strange title to the video, since their marriage was hardly "from hell." Certainly not easy, but what one might expect for a career military officer and his spouse at the time. Difficult due to constant separation, relocation, and the tragic loss of a beloved son. Overall a good video.

Honoring President George H.W. Bush

Rush Limbaugh: Bob Dole stands to salute his rival

Bob Dole stands for George H.W. Bush

Rush was very good today explaining this. I encourage you to read what he wrote (and said today on his show).

President Donald Trump salutes President George H.W. Bush

The leftist media mocked this too, so bitter. 

It is ok Mr. President, the media even ran a hit piece on President Bush's service dog.  

Joy Behar even called Meghan McCain a b*tch. 

Rush Limbaugh: We remember the 1988 Campaign, Where Was This Love For George H.W. Bush when he was President?, Joy Behar can dish it out but can't take it, My Memories of President George H.W. Bush, and The fawning coverage of Bush 41 is all about Trump

Instapundit: Joy Behar should try to act with a little more class and stop calling Meghan McCain a b*tch... and Slate wrote a hit piece on GHWB's service dog?,

EBL: Democrats are only friends with Republicans who lose to them and George H.W. Bush, RIP

Don Surber: Hillary at Bush 41's funeral and Joy Behar may quit The View

Ladies of Andrew Jackson Rule 5

While I am good with gun-toting Harriet Tubman bumping Andrew Jackson off the $20, that is not to say there are a lot of things to like about President Andrew Jackson (even if he was a Democrat). It was the "Corrupt Bargain" of 1824 that led to the Democrat Party (many Trump and Sanders supporters suspect that is happening again now). So why not a Rule 5 post on the Ladies of Andrew Jackson? Just don't say anything disrespectful of them, or Andrew Jackson will come back from the grave and challenge you to a duel (and you will deserve what ever you get).

Rachel Donelson Jackson (a very lovely woman)

Rachel Jackson died before Andrew Jackson's inauguration, so she never served as First Lady.  That ceremonial role was shared by her niece Emily Donelson and his daughter in law Sarah Yorke Jackson. Andrew Jackson never forgave the rumors raised about his wife and blamed that gossip on her untimely death.
