Two brothers, both diametrically opposed on issues as R vs D, were on C-Span this morning when someone unexpected called in.

"We cannot learn from one another until we stop shouting at one another--until we speak quietly enough so that our words can be heard as well as our voices."

Nixon didn't send the National Guard to Kent State. That was Ohio Governor Rhodes, may he rot in hell.

Since 2001....not nearly long enough!


I know, but Nixon was Supreme Commander.  He bears ultimate responsibility - the whole "buck stops here" thing....

That was Truman.

I believe Nixon's was "Well, I am not a crook."

Clinton didn't inhale. I'm not sure about the others. Rumor has it that Truman enjoyed a fattie now and then
