And why would a man who claimed to hate war spend almost his entire adult life as a soldier?
And Harry Callahan was a cop, not a soldier. Try to stay on topic.

If you want to pin me down to a "perfect" president, in our history, fuck off.
I will never claim Ike was perfect. I will argue that many in American history took war seriously and did not look at it as a default position.
Many doctors can tell you they hate operating on gunshot victims, but they don't get into the field just to say, "Shoot people so I can make a living."
So, my 'try to stay on topic' advice didn't take. As expected.
