So finally they impeached him

So finally they impeached him

And all voted for

They were tired of his blather

They were tired of his war

They were tired of his stealing

They were tired of his threats

Enough with the murders

Enough lawlessness

The army, the economy

They did not want to wreck

They wanted someone in the White House

With more self-respect.

Français

Alors finalement ils en avaient assez

Alors finalement

Ils en avaient assez

Ils l’ont mis en accusation

Et contre lui voté

Assez de divagations

Assez de guerre

Assez de vols, de menaces aussi

Assez de meurtres, de l’anarchie

Et l’armée, et l’économie

Les échecs manquaient de cachet

Ils voulaient quelqu’un de compétent

Et qui respectait la position.

Español

Así que, al final, lo acusaron

Y así, al final, fue sometido

y todos en su contra votaron

Y contra sus robos, y contra su guerra

y contra las amenazas y los asesinatos

De la anarquía estaban hartos

Carecían de sello los fracasos

De las Fuerzas Armadas, de la economía

No les interesaba la destrucción

Querían a alguien competente

y que su posición respetara.

— Poem(s) and photograph by William Eaton

I note this exchange between President Abraham Lincoln and a citizen. On November 18, 1863, the evening before Lincoln pronounced his now-famous Gettysburg Address, a boisterous crowd was urging the President to make a speech.

Lincoln: In my position it is somewhat important that I should not say any foolish things.
A voice from the crowd: If you can help it.
Lincoln: It very often happens that the only way to help it is to say nothing at all.
