Ordered by popularity

Can anyone imagine an American president saying words like these?

Shake off all the fears of servile prejudices, under which weak minds are servilely crouched. Fix reason firmly in her seat, and call on her tribunal for every fact, every opinion. Question with boldness even the existence of a God; because, if there be one, he must more approve of the homage of reason than that of blindfolded fear.

--Thomas Jefferson

The quality of our political leadership has fallen quite a bit since Jefferson was around.

The quality of political leadership, and also of society in general. It's quite sad. People like Jefferson fought to establish this country. And now (this is my opinion) we are digging our grave.

This one would really chap our current politician's hides:

"The Government of the United States is in no sense founded on the Christian religion."

Who said it: John Adams, 2nd President of the United States and a framer of the Consitution...

*sigh*

Yeah...they'd crucify him now for saying that. It's so weird that the US started as a secular liberal state and is now where it is.
