33. Humphrey Bogart's character Rick, in Casablanca, never said, "Play it again, Sam."
34. No stunt man died during the filming of 1959's Ben Hur char**t race scene as rumored. The rumor was that the stunt man who was carried off the race track, actually did die.
35. St. Paul never said or wrote that money is the root of all evil. He did write that the love of money is the root of all evil. I don't agree with either but do believe that power, as exemplified by progressives, is the root of all governmental evil.
36. Calvin Coolidge did not say, "The business of America is business." That was a quote by a progressive historian to discredit Coolidge whose major object was to eliminate the national debt that was accrued during Democratic r****t, progressive president Woodrow Wilson's war 'to make the world safe for democracy.' Coolidge was the best twentieth century president IMHO.
