A Hell of a Quote From a Hell of a Man

 

If you give the Republicans complete control of this government, you might just as well turn it over to the special interests and we'll start on a boom and bust cycle and try to go through just what we did in the twenties. And end up with a crash -- which in the long run will do nobody any good but the Communists.

President Truman (1:00 mark)

Subsitute the word "terrorists" for "Communists" and it's even more true.
