For many years I have chafed at the names Dulles because his foreign policy prolonged the Cold War. To me, the man who has not been given adequate recognition is Harry Truman who was a truly great man and great president. Maybe Republicans and Democrats can agree on that.

Oy vey. Well we can take comfort that the Washington left might occasionally be forced to use Reagan National Airport. He is plenty nemesis for them and has the benefit of being a genuinely great national leader, not a narcissistic loud mouthed cartoon.

Yes, the liberals I know still call it by the former name, "National."

Ha. I am generally opposed to renaming things already named for someone but where it's just named with a generic word it's ok.
