Haha! The man made fools out of the press and they thought he was the fool.

A few (unposted) favorites of mine:

We don’t have a trillion-dollar debt because we haven’t taxed enough; we have a trillion-dollar debt because we spend too much.

You know, I like your White House photographers’ motto, “One picture is worth a thousand denials.”

The United Sates has much to offer the third world war.

"The man made fools out of the press and they thought he was the fool."

Yep, exactly. Here are a couple of other gems:

"Government's first duty is to protect the people, not run their lives."

"Government does not solve problems; it subsidizes them."

"Governments tend not to solve problems, only to rearrange them."

"History teaches that war begins when governments believe the price of aggression is cheap."

"I favor the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and it must be enforced at gunpoint if necessary."

You wrote "Haha! The man made fools out of the press and they thought he was the fool."

I agree & I had never seen that quote before. I am still laughing & grinning from ear to ear. Great quote! Maybe we should just ask Scott McClellan to read & re-read quotes from Ronald Reagan instead of fielding questions from a grossly disrespectful & hostile press corps, and him looking foolish & weak in the process.

This is a GREAT thread!
