President Gerald Ford Turns 93
2006-07-15
Gerald R. Ford, the nation's oldest living former president, began his 93rd birthday Friday with a note of praise and best wishes from the White House. "Since leaving office, President Ford has set a high standard for grace and character," President Bush said in a written statement. "He has never forgotten his roots or lost sight of the things that matter, including his deep love for his wife and partner, Betty." Ford has made few public appearances in recent months and has had some health setbacks, including a 12-day hospitalization in January for pneumonia.

#3  "Celebrates birthday at favorite gentleman's club."

Ever since the movie Beverly Hills Cop II, it has been a running gag that president Ford is a regular at some of the finer strip clubs in California.

#2  Certainly better than Ol Jimmah when he croaks. Ford had a tough job when he took office, and did well all things considering. Happy Birthday President Ford, and many more to come I hope.

#1  ...Many happy returns and best wishes to him. A good and decent man who will be better remembered by history than we think.
