It’s been said your life changes the moment you have a baby, which might be the most obvious under-statement since “it hurts when you fall from a 70-story building”. Where once your life’s pronoun dynamic was a duality – “you and I” – a baby makes it a trio – “you, me and
the baby”. It sounds so ominous and important, it almost needs to be capitalized, like a deity: The Baby! The little critter becomes the still center of the turning wheel of your life for the next two decades, as omnipresent as idiots on Twitter or Charlotte Flair on WWE programming. This tiny, fragile, completely dependent human being in your life that you made isn’t going anywhere, not anytime soon. Never mind that it also functions as a living countdown of your own mortality. On the other hand, it’s also a reminder of that one time your wife wore the sexy Pebbles Flintstone costume and asked for the piledriver position out of nowhere.
majesty s government had about initiating action. i m absolutely convinced that was one point where the queen and mrs. thatcher who didn t see eye to eye on everything certainly saw eye-to-eye. america has always been a great ally. so when the u.s. went into grenada and didn t let the queen know, that was a tricky motion. this lasts just four days. i think you better look at the shots of the queen and ronald reagan riding at windsor to realize grenada was a hiccup. margaret thatcher and the queen may agree on the grenada invasion, but in 1986, an article surfaces regarding disagreement on apartheid. the institutional racial segregation plaguing south africa for decades. the times newspaper in the u.k. published an article under the headline queen dismayed by uncaring thatcher. and the article went on to talk about how she was not doing enough to end apartheid in south africa.
menagetwe, i guess. in an attempt to thwart a potential communist threat, t british government is completely unaware othe operation. we communicated to the united states our doubts that her majesty s government had about initiating action. i m absolutely convinced that was one point where the queen and mrs. thatcher who didn t see eye to eye on everything certainly saw eye-to-eye. america has always been a great ally. so when the u.s. went into grenada and didn t let the queen know, that was a tricky motion. this lasts just four days. i think you better look at the shots of the queen and ronald reagan riding at windsor to realize grenada was a hiccup. margaret thatcher and the queen may agree on the grenada invasion, but in 1986, an article surfaces regarding disagreement on apartheid. the institutional racial segregation plaguing south africa for decades.
observed as everything is in politics but he articulated the cause of restraining government, of respecting the taxpayer, of respecting the citizen in that way. that was a powerful message. i want to talk a little bit here about the role that these libraries play, these museums play in the legacy of all ex-presidents. you did this piece for american life which was just great. you went to the reagan librarian you watched school kids try to re-enact the 1983 grenada invasion from the perspective of the oval office. it s similar to the decision point to bush s thing where the kids, they have a part, a really thorough re-enactment where young children go and flay role, they either play the role of the press or go to the war room or go to the oval office. they have to decide whether or not to invade.
did you feel threatened? dragging out credentials is not something i feel comfortable doing but this demands it. it did three tours of duty in vietnam in the 1960s a correspondent for nbc news. troops in combat are what i covered. troopsly always admire and support because of this experience. i also covered israeli troops in combat during the yom kippur roar in 1973. the british army in the northern ireland trouble in the 1970s. the india-pakistan war in 1971. the grenada invasion in 1983, et cetera, et cetera. in those days you see networks have the money and commitment to send correspondents to wherever a shot was fired. covering combat was very much on the foreign correspondent daily menu. there is an enormous difference between covering war as a correspondent, and fighting it as a soldier.
