“He is the kind of politician who would cut down a redwood tree, then mount the stump to make a speech about conservation.”

--Adlai Stevenson on Richard M. Nixon

“[Al Gore} . . . reminds me of Richard Nixon . . . the kind of politician who would cut down a tree, then stand on a stump and talk about conservation."

-- Bill Bradley in the 2000 New Hampshire Democratic presidential candidate debate, January 26, 2000

"George Bush is the kind of politician who would cut down a tree and then climb on its stump to give a speech about conservation.''
