Contrary to popular belief, he also did not coin the phrase "what the fuck" in Porch.

No need to get so nasty friend, I was just referencing a post from a few weeks ago where someone else theorized that the phrase WTF got popular in the 90's due to Ed and Porch, figured those of us who had read that thread would get a laugh.
No need to litter me with personal insults.

The line was lifted from Ann Richards' speech at the Repub Natl Convention in 1988...
Here's another of her memorable lines from that same speech:
Poor George, he can't help it — he was born with a silver foot in his mouth.
and:
He was born on third base and thought he hit a triple. [about George Bush, Sr.]
I was alone and far away when I heard the band start playing!
...I was always a DeadHead, but when I first heard Winston Rodney, aka the Burning Spear, sing, I became a SpearHead too!

you don't read much, do you?
fail
where did you find those retarded facts? it was Jim Hightower, Texas agriculture commission, it was the DEMOCRATIC convention in 88, and it was said about HW, not W.
it was originally said by a CONSERVATIVE about FDR's admin
but don't let the facts confuse you since your mind is already made up
Just to clarify, this book seems to be saying that the phrase "born on third base" signifying a life of privilege is from the 1930s. The earliest cite it has for "born on third base, thinks he hit a triple" is the one from 1986.
Interesting book, like the Oxford English Dictionary for quotes. Useful.
There is nothing like coming on here and getting whipped for being just a little more un-informed or inexperienced in the ways of the world.
Fuck.
there's nothing like someone asking a question, several people doing some research and finding answers (with links), and then having someone oblivious come along 8 or 10 hours later and chiming in like an expert with info that's completely wrong, without having taken a look at the minimal number of posts ahead of him that contain the facts....this place is almost famous for it.

Yeah, that expression is pretty old.
The first time I heard it from a mainstream source was the 1988 DNC when Anne Richards said the same thing about Bush Sr.

Just did a quick google search and the expression goes back as far 1935 when an unattributed conservative referred to FDR's Brain Trust as such.
Barry Switzer ex Cowboys coach said it 1986 and is also attributed with the quote.
