I personally think this is what everyone has got to do in this day and age (especially with what is happening after Katrina).

You know, Leona, I really like this quote! In looking at all of the events that have unfolded throughout this President's time in the White House, I am amazed at his abililty to stay focused on the best interests of mankind. He doesn't get all wrapped up in the criticism. Because of it, he takes a lot of crap, even from his peers. But he is an example to all of us and a really good man. Not perfect by any stretch. What really bothers me about most of his opponents is that they are visciously attacking him from the other side of the rope! And their weapons of choice are maliciousness, mean-spiritedness, and filthy lies! Disagreeing about which direction the country should go is one thing, but doing it the way some are doing it is making them no less than the enemy within! All of that said, the quote is a very good one, and I appreciate your sharing it. Politics aside, it holds up in all of life as well. I know that I am in the running for a promotion at work. This quote serves to remind me that I will do much better in my new position, should I get it, if I manage with the wisdom of Tommy Lasorda's words.
