1. Why not, indeed?

I'd rather exhume Nixon's corpse and prop up the moldering old stiff in the Oval Office if it would mean getting the Chimpinator out of there...

9. Ahh yes. A Unity ticket.

But would TR be willing to take the VP slot? We might have to offer him extra brains to consume...

10. You might have a point there
we may have to bribe him with extra brains or add in digging a canal somewhere. He was always fascinated by that.

6. Some great quotes about Nixon
Richard Nixon is no-good lying bastard. He can lie out of both sides of his mouth at the same time, and even if he caught himslef telling the truth, he'd lie just to keep his hand in.

Harry S Truman

It is quite extrodinary! He will tell a lie when it is not convenient to. That is the sign of a great artist.

Gore Vidal

He is the kind of politician who would cut down a redwood tree and then mount the stump to make a speech for conservation.

Adalai Stevenson

The integrity of a hyena and the style of a poison toad.

Hunter S Thompson

8. You are welcome
I was at a used book store the other day and bought this book of quotes called the "Portable Curmudgeon." You thread made me think of the presidential section it has and the great Nixon quotes in it. I thought I would share.

11. Sad but true
Nixon looks good in comparison to Bush. Oh, how we have fallen as a country. :cry:
