Dear Sen. J. Borden;

Google has a gadget titled: BEST PRESIDENTIAL QUOTES: I do understand that you may be too busy keeping things straight at The House; but it takes only about 30 seconds to gather some wisdom from a homepage site. Example:
"I have never been hurt by anything I didn't say."
President John C. Coolidge.

Apostle James said: The tongue is a great evil; even a ship can be controled at sea by the small helm which turns it thus and so, as a horse may be controled by the bit, and rein; but the tongue is set on the fires of hell and it's damage is not to be measures. Therefore it is known that a man who can control his tongue, is able also to control himself.

Another great had the power of confession. He habitually confessed to his comedic shame "I have a biiii-iig mouth!" Jackie Gleason.

Are you big enough to stand shoulder to shoulder with any of those old soldiers in honesty? I mean to confess why you were really led from within to apologize for those who in your estimation shakes down people down for doing the almost unforgivable to America?
Well, sir; I hope they may help you a bit. In all due respect, our elders used to tell us the same things; remember? 'Think before you speak, girl/boy!' All good advising.

Sincerely;
JSB
