Just saw his story as a USAF ace in Vietnam on the History Channel. I remember hearing his name mentioned here and there... what is he like as a politician?

Quoted:
Duke was a good guy back 15 year ago or so when I lived in the San Diego area. Guess he fell into line with the rest of the scum sucking dogs ... but got caught big time in aces.



When you lay down with the dogs, you're going to get fleas.

My ex-congressman. Voted for him every chance. Power corrupts, I guess.

He was my congressman. I thought he was a good congressman but I was very disappointed in his corruption. Oh well, I guess I'll vote for another pro-gun Republican instead of that idiot Busby.
