Unfortunately, socialism is alive and well in America. FDR started the socialist programs and each succeeding democratic adminstration keeps expanding these ideals. Whatever happened to the rights of the individual? This is what Clinton said:

"We can't be so fixated on our desire to preserve the rights of ordinary Americans ..." (President Bill Clinton, USA Today, March 11, 1993, Page 2A)

Dncan,

President Coolidge was a rara avis: a pragmatist who insisted that value be realized for action and/or expense.

One of my favorite Coolidge anecdotes concerns the time Mrs. Coolidge was ill and was unable to attend Sunday morning church services with the President. When Silent Cal returned from church, Mrs. Coolidge asked him what the minister had talked about. "Sin," he replied. Mrs. Coolidge then proceeded to ask him what the minister had had to say about sin, to which he replied, "He was agin' it."

Mr and Mrs Coolidge were touring a farm. The owner showed off his prize rooster.

Mrs Coolidge asked "Does this rooster perform one or multiple times a day?"

The owner said "Oh dozens of times a day"

Mrs Coolidge said " Tell that to Mr Coolidge."

Mr Coolidge asked " Is that dozens of times with one chicken or multiple chickens?"

The owner said "Oh dozens of chickens."

Mr Coolidge said "Tell that to Mrs Coolidge."
