Calvin Coolidge actually said...

"It is a satisfaction to realize that a change has come over public opinion."

"General Lee is reported to have ranked him even higher, saying, 'Meade, in my judgment, had the greatest ability. I feared him more than any man I ever met upon the field of battle.'"

"Everyone with even the most elementary knowledge of American history knows that Meade was victorious at Gettysburg."

"America has ever been the most generous to those who have rendered service in time of war."
