Apres Moi, Les Deluge?
Yeah, I'd definately have to concur here.
The "Miss Buffalo Chip" thing is hilarious (depending on Mrs. McCain's sense of humor) but giving Sarah Palin any amount of governmental power above "Congressional Toilet Clenser" made my vote for Obama a no-brainer.
Why are all the powerful conservative women such idiots (michelle bachman, sarah palin, orley taits, and that AWFUL Christine O'Donnel).
I suppose Condelizza Rice at least knows her shit and at least hasn't been in the news for saying stupid things, but still - compared to the democrats who have people like Nancy Pelosi (agree or disagree with her politics - she's a smart and capable woman), Hiliary Clinton, and that woman whose name I've forgotten who was first in line to lead the Customer Protection Agency but EVERY REPUBLICAN hated the idea (for good reason - at least as far as their biased opinion goes).
Those are GREAT examples of powerful and smart women.
If today you can take a thing like evolution and make it a crime to teach in the public schools, tomorrow you can make it a crime to teach it in the private schools and next year you can make it a crime to teach it to the hustings or in the church. At the next session you may ban books and the newspapers...
Ignorance and fanaticism are ever busy and need feeding. Always feeding and gloating for more. Today it is the public school teachers; tomorrow the private. The next day the preachers and the lecturers, the magazines, the books, the newspapers. After a while, Your Honor, it is the setting of man against man and creed against creed until with flying banners and beating drums we are marching backward to the glorious ages of the sixteenth centry when bigots lighted fagots to burn the men who dared to bring any intelligence and enlightenment and culture to the human mind. ~Clarence Darrow, at the Scopes Monkey Trial, 1925
Politics is supposed to be the second-oldest profession. I have come to realize that it bears a very close resemblance to the first. ~Ronald Reagan
