#4 Thanks, AC, but my computer-challenged brain fried just reading those admittedly simple directions.

The good news is you're now in charge of making such links for me! ;-p

Seriously, I'd love to know more about that line. What was the reaction in theaters? Was it even noticed? Who wrote it, and why? The Dems were the majority party in 1940 - yet even then at least some people thought of them like we think of them now. I wish there were some way to find out more about it in the context of the times.

Ah, well - guess I'll just have to settle for laughing my a** off. :-D
