Right you are. Back in Teddy Roosevelt's time. ...

Saw a Theodore Rossevelt quote the other day that is as apropos
today as it was when it was uttered in 1918:

"To announce that there must be no criticism of the president,
or that we are to stand by the president, right or wrong, is
not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable
to the American public."
--Theodore Roosevelt


You didn't post that in 1998 ;-)
