Political Quote of the Day

"The dogmas of the quiet past, are inadequate to the stormy present ... As our case is new, so we must think anew, and act anew. We must disentrall ourselves, and then we shall save our country."

A most damning indictment of dogma bound right & left thinkers.

For bonus points, without googling, tell me who said the quote.

I could be wrong, but didn't ARNOLD just say that the other day.


how about "Let us never negotiate out of fear, but let us never fear to negotiate." (Something I wish this administration understood.)

An F for cheating? You left your answer laying there for everyone to see. I should get at least a D for effort.
