Happy Presidents Day
I believe there are more instances of the abridgment of the freedom of
the people by gradual and silent encroachments of those in power than by
violent and sudden usurpations. James Madison  1788

       Bad Joke Monday
George Washington is the only president who didn't blame the previous 
administration for his troubles.  Author Unknown

I had rather be on my farm than be emperor of the world.  George Washington

       Over Heard in the Capitol Cafeteria
Lobbyist:  "If he just said what he thought, he'd be speechless."

Legislator: Being defeated is often a temporary condition.
Lobbyist:  Yeah I know, Giving up is what makes it permanent.

Freshman: The less important you are to the committee,
                                the more they notice your absence.

If men were angels, no government would be necessary.  James Madison

     Thoughts While Waiting For President's Day
           Quotations About George Washington
Let him who looks for a monument to Washington look around the United States.  Your freedom, your independence, your national power, your prosperity, and your prodigious growth are a monument to him.  Louis Kossuth

Then honor to the day that gave him birth, For it is also Freedom's natal day.
~Arthur J. Burdick

George Washington is one of the beacons 
placed at intervals along the highroad of history.  Orestes Ferrara

More than all, and above all, 
Washington was master of himself.  Charles Francis Adams

Washington's is the mightiest name of earth - long since mightiest in the cause
of civil liberty; still mightiest in moral reformation.  On that name no eulogy is expected.  It cannot be.  To add brightness to the sun, or glory to the name of Washington, is alike impossible.  Let none attempt it.  In solemn awe pronounce
the name, and in its naked deathless splendor leave it shining on.  A. Lincoln

         Jokes that go over like a lead balloon
If one morning I walked on top of the water across the Potomac River, 
the headline that afternoon would read:  "President Can't Swim."  Lyndon B. Johnson

       Good Service Tip Of The Week
Order without liberty 
and liberty without order are equally destructive. Theodore Roosevelt

Leaders are visionaries with a poorly developed sense of fear

Nothing so conclusively proves a man's ability to lead others
as what he does from day to day to lead himself.  Thomas J. Watson

A leader is a dealer in hope.  Napoleon Bonaparte

Leaders don't create followers, they create more leaders.  Tom Peters

I suppose that leadership at one time meant muscle; 
but today it means getting along with people.  Indira Gandhi

Ohio claims they are due a president as they haven't had one since Taft. 
Look at the United States, they have not had one since Lincoln.
Will Rogers

As President, 
I have no eyes but constitutional eyes; I cannot see you.  Abraham Lincoln

           OWIM (Oh Well It’s Monday)
  I couldn't help but say to [Mr. Gorbachev], just think how easy his task and mine might be in these meetings that we held if suddenly there was a threat to this world from another planet.  [We'd] find out once and for all that we really are all human beings here on this earth together.  Ronald Reagan, 1985

     The Writer's Block
What They Said About George Washington
This was the man God gave us when the hour

The flower imperishable of this valiant age, A true American!  Clinton Scollard
