HI Quiettoolong.

I haven't really read a lot about the Grant Presidency, but from what I have read he seemed to have followed a lot of bad advice and had too many corrupt people to running things.

SAMWolf, this last quote reminds me of you :)

Hey! are you calling me irate or tireless?

Who demands what is required of American Citizens
If ye love wealth greater than Liberty,
the tranquility of servitude greater than
the animating contest for freedom,
go home from us in peace.
We seek not your consul, nor your arms.
Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you.
May your chains set lightly upon you,
and may posterity forget ye were our countrymen.

Samuel Adams

Heck, I've known several people in uniform of the same personality type as Gen Grant.
That is somewhat a scary thought.
Becasue they were usually the guys who didn't want to be in charge but would grudgingly do the job if they culdn't personally find anyone better.

Yeah, and _Jim who on a previous thread went off on supposed 'magic'.
I don't know the outcome yet, or what is being 'done' about the harrassment session.
*chuckle*
But that has been going on since roughly 8 last night!
Oh brother...
