Quotes of the Day II

Michael Graham, writing for the Boston Herald, about the Times Square bomber and Washington's reaction thereto:
So who is surprised by the headline “Muslim terrorist tries to blow up New York?” It’s such an obvious plot device they don’t even use it on “24” anymore. The only people naive enough to find it a surprise are the innocents of the Obama administration.
Later in the same article Graham concludes:
It turns out that, the more Americans understand what their government is actually doing, they less they trust it.
Less trust of government is sadly wise.
