There was a class room where the teacher explained she would recite famous quotes and ask the class to identify the source and the date it was spoken. She asked who said, ”œYou have nothing to fear but fear itself.” Class who was that she asked? Johnny in the front row raised his hand, where upon she called on him and he said, Franklin Delono Roosevelt, 1932.””œCorrect,” the teacher said. Next she asked who said, ”œI have nothing to offer but blood, toil, tears and sweat?” Once again Johnny was called and said, ”œWinston Churchill, 1940.” ”œCorrect Johnny” the teacher said. Again the teacher asked, ”œwho said, My fellow Americans, ask not what your country can do for you — ask what can you do for your country.” As expected Johnny answered, ”œJohn F Kennedy 1961.
“Before the teacher could confirm the answer, Frankie in the back of the room, fed up with the teacher’s pet Johnny, blurted out, ”œ Fuck John F. Kennedy!” The teacher turned to the class and said, ”œWHO SAID THAT?” Frankie replied, ”œRichard Nixon, 1960.”
