I used to think that the Civil War was our country's greatest tragedy, but I do remember that there were some redeeming features in the Civil War in that there was some spirit of sacrifice and heroism displayed on both sides. I see no redeeming features in Watergate.

Früher dachte ich, der Bürgerkrieg sei die größte Tragödie unseres Landes, aber ich erinnere mich daran, dass es im Bürgerkrieg einige erlösende Züge gab, da auf beiden Seiten ein gewisser Geist der Opferbereitschaft und des Heldentums gezeigt wurden. Ich sehe keine einlösenden Funktionen in Watergate.

Armed Forces Day on May 21, and the Memorial Day weekend that follows, is a time to honor, remember and recognize those who serve and have served our country, as well as those who have died in service. As we reflect, let's not forget the many sacrifices made at home as well in support of our men and women in uniform.

You think that religion is a thing that is there to help you and to see you through life, and then you wake up one morning and find the entire Irish situation, the civil war that's based on religion.
