Regarding history "The longer you look back, the farther you can look forward".

Oscar Wilde: "The one duty we owe to history is to rewrite it".

John Fitzgerald Kennedy; "We must face the fact that the United States is neither omnipotent no omniscient- that we are only six percent of the world population; that we cannot impose our will upon the other 94 percent of mankind; that we cannot right every wrong or reverse each adversity; and therefore there cannot be an American solution to every world problem"

Arthur M Schlesinger Jr: "History is never a closed book or final verdict. It is forever in the making. Let historians never forsake the quest for knowledge in the interest of an ideology, a race, a nation. Becaus in the end, a nations history must be both the guide and the domain not so much of it's historians as it's citizens."

You would almost have to see this to believe it, but my word is true and accrit. Bumper sticker on a car with many anti Bush bumper stickers, for example BUCK FUSH, sez WHEN FASCISM COMES TO OUR COUNTRY IT WILL BE WRAPPED IN THE AMERICAN FLAG AND CARRYING A CROSS. Them DFLer's are real high class people.

Words by Edward Lotterman, Thursday Pioneer Press. Regarding e-coli and trans-fats contanimation of food and maintaing the safety of food. "Governments generally should not act when private markets meet society's needs. When markets fail, government action may improve things. Government actions are not invariably successfu, however, and often produce unintended consequences."

Also said in different words by economist Thomas Sowell "There are no solutions, only trade-offs". This can easily apply to our current smoking ban.

New York City is first to ban trans fats, while at the same time, looking at labels that say 0 trans fats shows that the market prevails. While the conservatives encourage personal responsibility, the liberals say "pass a law"

Latest bumper sticker "YUCK BUSH", probably meant to replace "Y" with "F". Does it take a genius to display a hate Bush bumper sticker, or a fool? Among many others, too numerous to display, are 'BUCK FUSH', ""BUSH SUCKS", www.BushURAloser.com. and "JESUS IS A LIBERAL" accompanied by the fish symbol with Darwin inside. Not too bright, you can't support Jesus and Darwin at the same time. Jesus believs in creation and Darwin in evolution, you can't have both. I have seen only one against a Democrat and that was "VIETNAM VETS OPPOSED TO KERRY" , and this is not a personal attack.
