Quote of the Day: Political Parties
The Democrats are the party that says government will make you smarter, taller, richer, and remove the crabgrass on your lawn. The Republicans are the party that says government doesn’t work and then they get elected and prove it. — P. J. O’Rourke
True when he said it. True today.

This is an entry in our member all-volunteer Quote of the Day Series. We seem to be in the summer doldrums for those volunteers, which means that I’ll soon be filling in by quoting the lyrics made famous by a purple dinosaur, unless someone signs up for the next few days. Only you can prevent that, so wouldn’t you like to sign-up right now?

What it does is lie and retreat, sadly.
