Wow. Unless a man is honest, we have no right to keep him in public life; it matters not how brilliant his capacity This is a particularly significant phrase. The fact that so many people seem unable or unwilling to grasp this concept is the one thing that troubles me most about this entire situation. Thank you for a most appropriate and pertinent quote. -BLT

Darrell Youngblood, channeling the spirit of Teddy Roosevelt, said: "Under the higher law, under the great law of morality and righteousness, he is precisely as guilty if, instead of lying in a court, he lies in a newspaper or on the stump; and in all probability, the evil effects of his conduct are infinitely more widespread and more pernicious." ...and no Republican has ever lied in a newspaper or on the campaign trail? Think again, dude. To turn the old GOP mantra against you, Roosevelt wasn't a "Founder", so his opinions shouldn't count for much in a Constitutional matter, should they? Bonus trivia question Which musician performed in the White House for both Theodore Roosevelt and John F. Kennedy? Sorry, there's no prize for the correct answer except for braggin' rights on the 'net and an interesting ice-breaker for parties. Joel Irby Austin, Texas
