Quote of the Day

"What it shows you is there are a lot of cynical people who try to fan controversy and, let's face it, in a country of 300 million people there are a lot of stupid people too, because if you believe that it's somehow unhealthy for kids for the President to say 'work hard and stay in school,' you're stupid! I'm not sure those parents are smart enough to raise those kids." -- MSNBC's John Harwood today on the "controversy" about a video from President Obama that is to be shown in schools, on a voluntary basis. Wingnuts are peppering their school districts demanding that the video not be shown, or are threatening to keep their children home on the day it is shown. Subject? As Harwood notes, "work hard and stay in school." Why that's Socialistic propaganda!
