The early 1980's saw us recovering from another recession as well as run away inflation and high interest rates. It was not an easy time but I do remember feeling very confident about our leadership in Washington.
Here are a few quotes from my favorite President during my lifetime. I hope you enjoy...
"Socialism only works in two places: Heaven where they don't need it and hell where they already have it."
'Here's my strategy on the Cold War: We win, they lose.'
'The most terrifying words in the English language are: I'm from the government and I'm here to help.'
'Of the four wars in my lifetime, none came about because the U.S. was too strong.'
'The trouble with our liberal friends is not that they're ignorant; it's just that they know so much that isn't so.'
'The taxpayer: That's someone who works for the federal government but doesn't have to take the civil service examination.'
'I have wondered at times about what the Ten Commandments would have looked like if Moses had run them through the U.S. Congress..'
'Government is like a baby: An alimentary canal with a big appetite at one end and no sense of responsibility at the other.'
'It has been said that politics is the second oldest profession. I have learned that it bears a striking resemblance to the first.'
'Politics is not a bad profession. If you succeed, there are many rewards; if you disgrace yourself, you can always write a book.'
'No arsenal, or no weapon in the arsenals of the world, is as formidable as the will and moral courage of free men and women.'
'If we ever forget that we're one nation under GOD, then we will be a nation gone under.'
ENJOY YOUR DAY!!
