Quote of the Day I

Doug Bandow, writing in The American Spectator, cracking wise about the health care reform proposals being considered in Congress:
It's a lot easier to campaign against the incompetent, big-spending, war-mongering Republicans than to convince the American people that they would be better off if the post office provided their health care.
I love that line: "convince the American people that they would be better off if the post office provided their health care." It reminds me of the satiric view of the post office taken in the film Men in Black II - as a place mostly staffed by space aliens.
