I Guess The Second-term Team Is Not

The 2008 Election Settled Nothing, Not Even For A While. Our National Politics Are Reflecting What Appears To Be Going On Geologically, On The Bottom Of The Oceans And Beneath The Crust Of The Earth: The Tectonic Plates Are Moving.

Most People Aren't Appreciated Enough, And The Bravest Things We Do In Our Lives Are Usually Known Only To Ourselves. No One Throws Ticker Tape On The Man Who Chose To Be Faithful To His Wife, On The Lawyer Who Didn't Take The Drug Money.

Speeches Are More Important In Politics Than Talking Points, As A Rule, And Are Better Remembered.

Speeches Are Not Magic And There Is No Great Speech Without Great Policy.

Wit Penetrates; Humor Envelops. Wit Is A Function Of Verbal Intelligence; Humor Is Imagination Operating On Good Nature.
