The More Things Change...

The More Things Change...
By Ed Scarce — October 2, 2013

Plus ça change, plus c'est la même chose.
--Jean-Baptiste Alphonse Karr, 1849

The more things change, the more they stay the same.

John Boehner, giving the Republican response to President Clinton's radio address in Nov 1995, on the then impending shutdown of the U.S. Government. Boehner even made a quip about President Clinton golfing too much.

Sigh.
