MORE FUN WITH RUTHERFORD B. HAYES:

UPDATE: A reader emails: “I’m enjoying the Rutherford B Hayes riffs. As a Civil War general, Hayes surely knew the value of the telegraph and would have had an even greater appreciation of the telephone. Obama can’t open a door without hitting himself in the face it seems. His memory and legacy will receive far more justifiable mockery over the next century than Hayes’ did during the last one.”
