9. Good FDR quote
FDR "A conservative is a man with two perfectly good legs who, however, has never learned how to walk forward."
"Let us never forget that government is ourselves and not an alien power over us. The ultimate rulers of our democracy are not a President and senators and congressmen and government officials, but the voters of this country."
"The test of our progress is not whether we add more to the abundance of those who have much it is whether we provide enough for those who have little."


Says exactly what's wrong......the ones who have too little are in the way of the neocons. And the ones who have too little multiply everyday because of the jobloss and continuing outsourcing of U.S. jobs to cheap labor foreign countries. We do need to always remember, those peacocks in DC are our employees and if they don't come though, they can be fired. Just too bad it takes an impeachment to get rid of some of them.
