    I am not a fan of Bennett, he saw nothing wrong with the 911 event!

    From the Howard Stern show interview:
    “To start a war in Iraq was a tremendous, tremendous mistake internationally,” he said.

    Stern then asked Bennett about how America should deal with terrorists, specifically those responsible for the 2001 attack on the World Trade Center.

    “But who are the terrorists? Are we the terrorists or are they the terrorists? Two wrongs don’t make a right,” Bennett said.

    In a soft-spoken voice, the singer disagreed with Stern’s premise that 9/11 terrorists’ actions led to U.S. military involvement in Iraq and Afghanistan.

    “They flew the plane in, but we caused it,” Bennett responded. “Because we were bombing them and they told us to stop.”

    Tony Bennett was born and grew up in Queens, New York.

    Because of the San Francisco song many believe that he was from that city.

    Don't know his political persuasion. I'm assuming he was a patriot. He served in the military during the war. Most of his generation did.

    The year he was born.

    I have posted this one before. It may be one of my favorite coins even if it's nowhere near my most expensive.

    Woah, Ricko. That’s a rare error. Both sides got struck sideways!!!

    Rotated dies with the obverse and reverse dies having the same exact degree of rotation. What are the odds? :o

    Actually, one is +90 degrees and the other is -90 degrees. Does that make it more rare or more common?> @TwoSides2aCoin said:

    It's just a joke. This thread was starting to look like a VB thread when an homage to Mr. Bennett turned immediately negative.

    All comments reflect the opinion of the author, even when irrefutably accurate.
