@achewood I once had the idea that, if only for a moment each night, everyone in the world was asleep at the same time. It made the world manageable.

Oh yeah, come on, Clinton was smart. Lack of book-learnin' was not that man's problem.

The dude had hell of book learnin', but I don't think he made very good decisions.

Of course, W. likes to think of himself as The Decider so maybe it's better some people know their limits and don't decide too much.

This is why a contrarian congress is a good thing.  Any time one party ends up dominating the executive and legislative branches, the hoss of Government grabs the bit between its teeth and runs headlong into disaster.  People ask me how I'm going to vote in upcoming elections and I always answer, "Gridlock".  Sometimes all Phil Hartmann as Admiral Stockdale-style.

Gerald Ford was your ideal president. I think we could use a Ford if there wasnt so much deciding that needs to be undid

I think we could use another Roosevelt.

No, not that one.  The other one.

My friends call me the Mayor.
My enemies don't call me anything.  'Cuz they're all dead.
