While President Bush has never acted as though he were concerned by inequality within America, his administration’s under-funded and ill-wrought educational policy is doing more for the redistribution of global wealth than the pinkest of bleeding-heart liberals ever could. Kids who get Cs in math might still be president, but in a global marketplace they can’t be too much else. However, if our children have to be poor, our hearts are warmed by the fact that they will be poor so that formerly struggling regions might be prosperous. Pass the standardized...
Having no crystal ball to foretell the Legion's future actions, the next best indicator is the American Legion Magazine which follows the party line pretty well.

Even the pinkest of labor leaders would admit, privately, that as long as the U.S. has prosperity-uneasy as it might be-the Taft-Hartley Law would work few hardships on labor. But for tactical reasons, and because it feared that the combination of the law and a depression might do them mortal harm, both the left and the right of organized labor stood...
...with complete good will and inexhaustible curiosity, Eleanor Roosevelt looked at every facet of English life. No one was any longer the least bit surprised where she turned up. In the tiny Kentish village of Barham, the proud members of the pig war club informed her that their chubbiest, pinkest piglet was named Franklin. Holding Franklin, who is being fattened even more for a Christmas raffle, Mrs. Roosevelt said soberly: "I shall tell my husband that I've seen...
