paraphrasing Rachel Maddow:
"The republicans aren't trying to pretend that they're not dumb, they're just trying to portray the democrats as weak, and the American public says that, 'hey, we don't mind being dumb, but we don't want to be weak.'"
I tell my kids that I don't believe in dumb. and I lie to them.
I do believe in dumb. and I believe that there is nothing more powerful than dumb. because dumb is loud and dangerous.
knowledge is power, in every way possible. Dick Cheney is not a dumb man. he has a lot of knowledge. and apparently Osama bin Laden has a lot of knowledge, too, and he has used that to hurt people. big time.
let's not surrender ourselves to people who are way more dedicated to studying things than we are.
let's not be dumb. that's all I have today.
