Great quote from Richard Nixon


during the Vietnam war, he said "If we do not prevail in this conflict, free speech will be wiped out for the whole world"
Overheated rhetoric like this makes me think of our current president and his henchmen.....

hmmmm, possibly he was simply trying to garner support any way he could for an unpopular war?? Remember, the President never (almost) writes his own speeches...Ben Stein was a speech writer for Nixon.

Nixon had his own grand view of the world, that doesn't quite seem right to the rest of us.

Every politician lies, exaggerates, and stretches the truth.

Most are dishonest in nearly every aspect of their existance. The nature of politics is you are never your own person. You belong to those that got you elected and those that paid the bill for you getting elected.

A few (Nixon, Clinton, Regan, soon to be Bush) get caught.

The sooner you accept this about politics, the less this will annoy you
