Liberalism faltered when it turned out it could not cope with truth. D. Moynihan

Some in my party threaten to send a message that they don't know a just war when they see it, and more broadly that they're not prepared to use our military strength to protect our security and the cause of freedom. Joe Lieberman

Somehow liberals have been unable to acquire from life what conservatives seem to be endowed with at birth: namely, a healthy skepticism of the powers of government agencies to do good. Daniel Moynihan


When we are planning for posterity, we ought to remember that virtue is not hereditary. T. Paine

He was well before your time Mike.
Look him up on the net.
Shame to see him go.
I'll bet he kicked his own butt after letting Elvis' contract go so cheap though. help

Sam Phillips was a pioneer in early rock & roll. If he wasn't around we would all be listening to Canadian music eek! wink
