Grandpa Fred and the Commies

A quick example of how far the GOP is fallen: Fred Thompson, who at this point is probably one of their top 5 candidates for 2008, is worried about the Soviet Union, among other things. This guy probably wakes up, throws his false teeth out the window, and sticks his alarm clock in his mouth.

FO gives a rundown of the best quotes from around the NFL this week - it always makes for a funny column.

I didn't have a chance to watch it, but Stupid in America sounds like a pretty excellent documentary. You can watch the whole thing through the link. Not to get too much into it, but I think the main problem with American education isn't time, money, or curriculum (although those are all factors). It's simply that many people today - not just school-age kids - are too complacent about their place in the world, and don't understand how to better their situation. Please, if you only read one book in the next year, read Dark Ages America.

Those dirty Marxists, with their sensible ideas!
