A good man undone by his loyalty to his friends. Isn't it tragic how his virtue and decency made him the scapegoat for the sins of those closest to him?
Im getting into Harding more and reading alot about him. Not sure if he took the fall for the Tea Pot Dome scandal or not. However, he did appoint the men who did the philandering of it. Also, he would then what Newt Gingrich is now. Harding had low morals, had a large sexual appetite and fathered many bastard children. However, I guess he was a nice guy. Guess thats all it takes to be president.

Harding, a great American who gave us peace, prosperity, common sense, and enormous good will; he was probably murdered.
