Gerald Ford, RIP
» WaPo: Former President Ford Dies at 93
Ford was just before my time, so it's hard to really wrap up any grand appreciation for him beyond the multitude of stereotypes he left us (not the least of which was his lack of knowledge about tamales while campaigning in Texas). Still, it's an American President that we mourn the loss of and there's a respect that ought to go along with that.

I will always remember Ford best for his opening statement: "Our long national nightmare is over." I remember breathing a sigh of relief, and it felt like the entire nation was sighing with me.
Now the question is, when will our current, longer, national nightmare be over?
