Do not needlessly endanger your lives until I give you the signal.

I intend to live forever, or die trying.
Politics is the art of looking for trouble, finding it everywhere, diagnosing it incorrectly and applying the wrong remedies. -Groucho You don't appreciate a lot of stuff in school until you get older. Little things like being spanked every day by a middle-aged woman: Stuff you pay good money for in later life. -Emo Phillips

Another from Mrs. Parker
Somewhere around 1928-1929, Dorothy Parker's friends were worried about how much she was drinking. After going to an Alcoholics Anonymous meeting, Dorothy was asked by her pal Robert Benchley, "Are you going to join?"
Dottie: "Certainly not. They want me to stop now!" (This story, reported in every bio of Mrs. Parker, is impossible, as AA wasn't founded until 1935 . . . but like the concept of Heidi Klum skydiving naked, there are some things that ought to be true even if they aren't.)

But that trait does not guarantee that doing the "right" thing (in your mind) will actually result in that thing being right. In the case of Bush, in stark contrast to Truman, you have a man who does not read, Truman was a prolific reader of history, us and the world. Truman's Marshall plan shaped the world in a positive way up to the present. Bush in contrast has no clue what to do with puny little Iraq in comparison, and is making a fine bungle of that. I think history will show that Bush was no Truman, (to paraphrase Lloyd Benson). Truman was a man caught up in huge events which he did not choose. Bush is a man caught up in a war that he started for God know what reason and who cannot cope with an event which, on a scale of ten, with ww2 being a ten, is about a .075. Truman is perhaps my all time favorite politician. Bush? as The Don would say....... pffft! Tom W

Elwood: It's 106 miles to Chicago, we got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark, and we're wearing sunglasses.
Jake: Hit it. "Trying is the first step towards failure." -Homer Simpson Some of my favorite Mark Twain Quotes: Suppose you were an idiot and suppose you were a member of Congress. But I repeat myself. In the first place, God made idiots. That was for practice. Then he made school boards. It could probably be shown by facts and figures that there is no distinctly American criminal class except Congress. Never put off until tomorrow what you can do the day after tomorrow. (My personal credo )

"Political Correctness is a doctrine fostered by a delusional, illogical liberal minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end."
