"You can't fix stupid.."
Ron White - Comedian

Stupidity in the defense of patriotism is no virtue. It was stupid to invade Iraq and create the conditions we now have in the world. It is even more stupid to support the invasion. You simply cannot fix stupid. Those with diamonds in their eyes and those that see the greatest speech since the Gettysburg Address are simply stupid. S-T-O-O-P-I-D !

1. There are only two lines in speeches which may even begin to compare to Lincoln's
Gettysburg Address. They were uttered by FDR and JFK. That is it. There are no speeches of living beings worth comparison.

4. FDR's was
"the only thing we have to fear is fear itself."

JFK's was "ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country."

Hence, why I said "lines" as opposed to the entirety of the speech itself.

6. Not to speak for your respondant but I'm guessing:
"The only thing we have to fear is fear itself", and
"Ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country"

Just my supposition...?
