Well yes I'm sure he meant dead and buried, as most people do weight till one is buried before punching out the relatives |

Yeah we would'nt want to honor his wishes to release his comments after he died. |

Why is it tacky? He made the comments during an interview and asked that they remain private until his death.
He died, they were released. What's tacky about that? |

If this was his wish, then no it wasn't tacky. |

Absolutely not! If these comments were released at the time they were spoken perhaps it would have gotten us on the path to finding a solution to the problem that G. Bush got the country involved with. |

Nope. The deal was to embargo it til he died. He's dead. Voila. |

Okay, look at your answers. This was Gerald Ford's request, not to release HIS analysis; until after he was dead. Why he chose to speak out, after death can be interpreted as a final act of patriotism. Too many quiet "governmental persons of interest"exist, to me.
There is too much silence. |

No. I think his wish, of waiting for his death before voicing his opinion WAS tacky. This is a serious issue and ALL citizens have a reponsibility to get in there and use their voice NOW, not for the history books. |

Not tacky. It shows that many Americans just can't handle the truth. Ford was right. |

No I don't think releasing a man's words before a funeral is tacky. I hope they release George Bush's words soon. The timing won't be tacky but I bet just like the man the words will be. |

I would call it "classless." Woodward likes to write and sell books. It looks like he is once again going after the free publicity. |

Absolutely. And blatant liberal media bias trying to bash the war. |

Yes. |

It really was in bad taste, in fact, I thought a lot of the news coverage about President Ford was in bad taste. |

Yes. All war critics should be silenced. |

That's our liberal press. |

Who cares, it sounds like the guy was clueless anyway:
"I don't think I would have ordered the Iraq war. I would have maximized our effort through sanctions, through restrictions, whatever, to find another answer." Shouldn't there come a point when sanctions and resolutions become futile? And wouldn't 17 resolutions fall under that category?
I'm sad to see the man pass away, from what I know of him, he was a good and decent person, who served his country with distinction, but he was wrong in his assumptions about the war. |

Yes. It's similar to a terrorist walking into a crowded cafe, unmasking himself and then shouting out some Islamo-facist statement before blowing himself up.
For those of you who don't get it. It's similar to being a coward and hiding your true face, then showing the world who you are before you make a boom and not suffering the consequences of your actions. |
