"The principle of spending money to be paid by posterity, under the name of funding, is but swindling futurity on a large scale." --Thomas Jefferson

Tidbit

Here's a factoid that will do you no good except maybe one day in a game of trivial pursuit. When was the last time the Republicans won the White House without Nixon or a Bush on the ticket? Give up...? 1928. If only the Grand Old Party could have convinced Jeb Bush to run, perhaps they'd have had a chance against the "chosen one".
