HOLY CARP!!!

As I recall, FDR savaged Hoover pretty badly. But then, FDR had the heart of an assassin. |

Civilisation, I vaguely realized then - and subsequent observation has confirmed the view - could not progress that way. It must have a greater guiding principle to survive. To treat it as a carcase off which each man tears as much as he can for himself, is to stand convicted a brute, fit for nothing better than a jungle existence, which is a death-struggle, leading nowhither. I did not believe that was the human destiny, for Man individually was sane and reasonable, only collectively a fool. I hope the gunner of that Hun two-seater shot him clean, bullet to heart, and that his plane, on fire, fell like a meteor through the sky he loved. Since he had to end, I hope he ended so. But, oh, the waste! The loss! - Cecil Lewis | |

I am so adjective that I verb nouns!

I doubt Reagan ever said much adverse about Carter after the election. He didn't have to since the people made the point for him. I don't think he ever publicly criticized Carter for the hostage situation since he understood the importance of a unified front against a common enemy-- unlike ... well, you can figure out the rest of that one. |

I Owe It All To John D'Oh

Or, make sure that everyone understands that, if they build and it gets knocked down again, they're on their own. But I agree. |

If you want trouble, find yourself a redhead

Yes. I t makes no sense at all to rebuild. You can point to Holland s a successful , but Holland doesn't get hurricanes. |

Finally
|
Because he's been openly critical of subsequent presidents. I don't recall him being critical of his predecessors. At least not saying that they broke promises. |
