Quote Of The Day

"Every so often, I read something written by other people that I wish I had written.

For instance, Thomas Paine observed over two centuries ago: 'To argue with a man who has renounced the use and authority of reason, is like administering medicine to the dead.'

In 21 words, Paine perfectly summed up the frustration faced by a conservative every time he attempts to debate an issue with a liberal."

--columnist Burt Prelutsky

    Nice try.....but NO.

    John Boehner uses facts in his discussion. Something that the Democrats run away from.
