This whole thing makes my respect for Grover Cleveland grow and grow. His motto was "Tell the Truth." He came up for re-election ... and lost. But HE was no loser, and came back four years later to win.

Cleveland was one of the last truly Constitution-adhering Presidents we have had. Nothing like the "let the Supreme Court decide" for him. If a bill laid in front of him was un-Constitutional: he did NOT play politics by passing the buck, demurring to popular fads, or sending forth teams of spin controllers. He would refuse to sign it and say clearly and simply whyfor.

Cleveland would have never contenanced spin-doctoring economic figures, nor would he have let the King-Fools of fiat money throw every economic baby we have out with some "free-traders" bathwater.

Cleveland would never even had considered a second that there are "jobs Americans will not do". He KNEW the Truth -- Americans will do what it takes whenever they have to!

A fierce commitment to Truth. Where has George W. Bush's gone? He had it ... he had to have had it to succeed against the bottle, to go as far as he got ... Where has it gone?

"Where has it gone?"

The 200 million dollar question. What happened to the man who had principles on 9-12, and now has none.
