History corner

The fundamental business of the country . . . is on a sound and prosperous basis. -- Herbert Hoover, Friday Oct. 25, 1929

The Government must in increasing degree supervise and regulate the workings of the railways engaged in interstate commerce. Such increased supervision is the only alternative to an increase of the present evils on the one hand or a still more radical policy on the other. -- Theodore Roosevelt, December 1904.

Hmm. Apparently Jena McCain't went to bed as Herbert Hoover and woke up as Teddy Roosevelt. We wonder who he was at 3 a.m.?
