I had respected him as a teacher and as a man. I knew that he hated the Kennedys because he feared they would work toward socialized medicine as had just begun in Great Britain. His wife was a physician and he feared a loss of income. However, that he or anyone could take please—much less act it out in such a way—impacted my 18-year-old self in ways that I still carry inside me.<BR/><BR/>abby: I don’t understand his behavior, especially in a high school corridor, either. Perhaps he thought no one was there. Seeing Candy and I in that hallway must have been a chock to him, not to mention her scolding of him. Unfortunately, in my life, I have encountered many teachers who I felt should not be teaching. I have no idea where they come from or why that teach.<BR/><BR/>Thomas: I agree. Many people do so politics as a game just as many see war as a game. Both “games” are too serious to be left to those types of people to play. I have no idea how he would have acted head he been in Dallas that day. That is something I will think about and probably blog. I agree about Michael Moore and Rush Limbaugh. When I heard Limbaugh rationalize his behavior by calling his radio show “entertainment,” I felt like vomiting. To me if that is “entertainment,” its only counterpart is the Roman coliseum with its gore and murder. I fear you are on target regarding future comments if—God forbid—another of our leaders is murdered.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16939152657551690867noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12709723.post-1132730048916539962005-11-23T02:14:00.000-05:002005-11-23T02:14:00.000-05:00That story is scary.
