I can't believe I am saying this... but I have to agree with LBJ. It seems as soon as the man gets elected.. he is fair game for all to kick around. The hail storm of critics!
Many truths there. As an old lady once told a friend of mine running for office.."I have known you all your life Phil but I will not vote for you. You are a decent man and I want you to stay that way."
Those were good. I don't understand why anyone would want to be President. Damned if he does and damned if he don't. It's a no win situation to be in.
These are wonderful--one of my favorite quotes is from a relative of your husband!
"Gentlemen, why don't you laugh? With the fearful strain that is
upon me night and day, if I did not laugh, I should die."
-- Abraham Lincoln
Yep, laughter sometimes is better than tears when relieving tension!
LOL--have a wonderful week!
All The President's Men..lol.. yes, US president is no joke.. all eyes are on him.
Quotes very interesting Patty.
I like very much the one told par JF Kennedy. Do not wonder what your country can do for you but what you can do for your country.
And I love too what President Obama said "Yes, We can" and I hope he will be able to do all what he wants to do for his country.
