And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

Babe Ruth donating his autobiography to the captain of Yale baseball team & future president George H.W. Bush, 1948.
The Babe shoulda' swung for the fences on Bush's head.
ReplyDeleteMy great-uncle was the last living pitcher to have pitched against Babe Ruth. He was inducted into the HOF at, I think, age 95.
He ( Bush ) may not have been a great President, but he was a fine Naval aviator.

ReplyDeleteHe'd already earned a DFC and three Air Medals in combat with the Japanese, long before he went to college. Yale was nothing special.
Wonder how much Prescott paid the Babe?
