"Thought" du jour - 9 August 2011

''If we took away the minimum wage - if conceivably it was gone - we could potentially virtually wipe out unemployment completely because we would be able to offer jobs at whatever level.'' - Michelle Bachmann

Thus do we begin a week of choice quotes from the leading contenders for the 2012 Republican presidential nomination, just so that we can all remember who they really are, and what they really represent.

New Frontier

New Frontier

Soul grifters...

time drifters -
no longer
heavy lifters,
Independence,
but no longer
independent,
Pluto towns
Jupiter frowns…
faces like the aftermath
of a nuclear weapons test.
The irradiated chickens
(half lives and half wits)
have come home
to roost
on the new frontier –
pick a channel
and watch them
cluck.
