Will RogersSpend, spend, spend! Promise, promise, promise! So here we are now. The money is spent and the promises are all broken. Last election, a whole bunch of legislators went down appropriating and are now looking for employment, just as Will Rogers said in his quote from 1932. The only thing stimulated by the all …
Will RogersFrom this quote, do you get the feeling that Will Rogers wasn’t too keen on the game of golf? I think it was too slow of a game for Will. As you look at the pictures in the Will Rogers blog posts, you will notice that Will is always active. In the picture on …
Will RogersWill Rogers’ published this quote and made the observation in 1929. We might think of those days as a bit slower and relaxed, but can you imagine what Will Rogers would think if he could see us today? Cars, trains and airplanes are faster now.

Will RogersWhere congressmen used to carry suitcases full of money away from Washington in the past, today it’s boxcars full of money! When “old man interest” starts gnawing away at us, the big boys roll the empty freight cars to the capital for help. Requirements and intent of a Federal program such as TARP, don’t make …

They’re vagrants! Actually, I don’t think Will Rogers was patient enough to play such a slow moving game as golf. He would …
This Will Rogers quote is from 1929, and we are still trying to figure out today if we are crooks or martyrs when it comes to the income tax form. It’s kind of humorous that today we have a Treasury Secretary, in charge of the IRS, that goofed up (in his favor) on his own …
Watch the Federal Reserve! That’s the message from Will Rogers in 1929. We’re still watching today, and things haven’t changed much. Mix the Federal Reserve manipulation of interest rates with Democrat meddling in the mortgage banking industry, and what do you get? Forclosures! Over 1 million Americans seen losing homes in 2011. The Democrat solution is, …
Will RogersThe stock market crashed on October 29, 1929, and as you can see, Will Rogers wrote this quote 2 days later. This bit of Will Rogers’ common sense would have been a solution to the wild speculation prior to the crash. Will Rogers seemed to find humor, in just about anything. It was his …
Will RogersThose poor Democrats, along with the mainstream media, just can’t seem to denounce anything these days without making a mess of it. It looks like they haven’t changed since Will Rogers published this quote in 1930! Whoever is advising them, doesn’t know the difference between gasoline and water when it comes to putting out …
