Nixon started his political career with money he made running illegal card games and lotteries while in the Navy, thereby being the world's most legit POG

And Joe Biden did his part in the Cold War by selling counterfeit blue jeans and dried up raisins rolled in to cigarette papers to the Soviets, further assisting in their economic collapse

Sherman was being pushed to be the Republican nominee in 1884 but threw that poo poo in their faces: "I will not accept if nominated and will not serve if elected." Then he dropped the mic, burned the building down, and hosed 15 women he met walking away from the scene while putting on his sunglasses.

Genocide Tendency posted:I like the dude at the end when she apologized for running over her time. He's all "it's cool. I wasn't going to get in the way of that steam roller you just drove over that dude." He also killed his wife last year. Thank you for your service.

Booblord Zagats posted:Supposedly Harry is a really loving good Apache pilot and overall leader. He also did a stint in Afghanistan as a JTAC, in addition to the Apache pilot bit. Anyone who goes to Helmand and kills Taliban and then goes to Vegas to gently caress strippers is alright in my book Zeris posted:Ike dropped the mic and it's still laying there Phanatic posted:What? Nixon never saw any combat. Probably thinking of LBJ. Who "almost got shot down" insofar as "he flew on a B-24 once on a combat mission, the B-24 turned around well before it entered enemy territory because of 'mechanical trouble,' for which LBJ received a Silver Star." I always like trotting that story out when people start ranting and raving about decoration inflation.
