There are apparently versions of this being circulated around the internet. This is the original passage, from a letter that President Eisenhower wrote to his brother:
I love that. That said, if here were still alive, I honestly don't know if old Ike would be happy with Shrub or not. Regardless, it makes interesting reading considering what's going on in the world.
Should any political party attempt to abolish social security, unemployment insurance, and eliminate labor laws and farm programs, you would not hear of that party again in our political history. There is a tiny splinter group, of course, that believes you can do these things. Among them are H. L. Hunt (you po2.0/ssibly know his background), a few other Texas oil millionaires, and an occasional politician or business man from other areas. Their number is negligible and they are stupid.
I love that. That said, if here were still alive, I honestly don't know if old Ike would be happy with Shrub or not. Regardless, it makes interesting reading considering what's going on in the world.
