The history nerd in me found this article from the New York Times incredible fun to read. The author took quotes from Theodore Roosevelt(one of my personal favorite Presidents!) from the historical record and applied them to questions about today's politics and the 2008 Presidential Election.Some of the answers will have you shaking your head and wondering if maybe ole' Teddy wasn't actually alive somewhere taking interviews from the New York Times editorial board.
My personal favorite?:
Q. How will you feel if Sarah Palin is elected?
A. I shall feel exactly the way a very small frog looks when it swallows a beetle the size of itself, with extremely stiff legs.
