A true observer of human nature - like Mark Twain - his wisdom is still relevant. My favorite of his:
"I am not a member of an organized political party - I'm a Democrat".
"I am not a member of an organized political party - I'm a Democrat".

I was born about 25 miles from where Will Rogers was born. He was born in Oologah, OK, and he one of the most famous persons from Oklahoma. If you ever go to Tulsa, rent a car, and go to his museum in Claremore. It is worth the trip.

Was it Will Rogers who said "we got about as much government we can afford." Do I have quote right or just close.

Unfortunately, many of the younger generations haven't a clue as to who they are as they've both been PCed out of the curriculum. But, they will push books like "Catcher in the Rye" for the reading list. Go figure.......

The people who PCed them had no idea what they said or meant. Sometimes we have to think About it for a few minutes.
