Quote Of The Day

"Taxpayers in New York send way more to Washington than they get back so more can go to places like Alaska and Louisiana. Which is fine, as long as we don't have to hear their governors bragging about how the folks who elected them want to keep their tax money to themselves. Of course they do! That's becuase they're living off ours." -- Gail Collins in the New York Times. A perfect summation of the right-wing "I got mine, now you get yours" philosophy that forgets that "mine" was given to them by "you."
