Four Senior Males Recent Remarks - "God Help Us If Hillary Wins Presidency - My Head Hurts.

Just came home from golf course where I had dinner. There were four senior men probably retired and on Social Security and Medicare. They were super right wing GOPPERS. One guy remarked his dad never voted Dem until he voted for Kennedy because he liked him. The same guy also remarked that he liked Kennedy because he chased women and was a great bullshitter and smoked Cuban cigars. I figure he did no like his politics.

Later in the conversation they were talking about Eisenhower and who was the most intelligent politician. They were talking disdainfully about having intelligent people being entertained in the White House. As the conversation went on an Werner von Braun came up. And one guy remarked that he was watching the History channel and believed the the Germans got their technology from UFO's because of some interview with von Braun he looked up when asked how he learned about rockets.

My head hurts.
