Quote of the Day

From Burt Prelutsky's article today at Townhall.com:

However, I also believe that after taking a good look at America today, they’d shake their heads and wonder how, after such a glorious beginning, we’d wound up in this pitiful condition. How did we go from George Washington to Barack Obama in, historically speaking, the blink of an eye; from the man who refused to be king to the man who would be czar?

Go read the whole thing. Burt is by turns sarcastic, sardonic, and has a dry humor that I enjoy reading.
