Poor America
Blame our financial woes on poor spellers, like the intellectual charity case in the White House.
By Garrison Keillor [2008-03-26]

  • It Ain't the Ignorance, tho

    It's the greed.

    Whether a guy can spell or not isn't the problem. It's whether that guy believes he should get out of bed to go to work every day because that's how society works.

    The "bad guys" all believe you go to work for a few years until you've pulled the right scam, and then you get to stop.

    THOSE are the American values of the post-Reagan world.
