"When I was a child, I was told anyone could become president. I'm starting to believe that is true
-- The late Adlai Stevenson II.

Other than the obvious shrub relevance, I think it is merciful that Mr. Stevenson didn't live to see the rise of the teabaggers. They're STILL making noise about Palin as a "serious contender". :wtf:

2. Hell, he had the bullshit figured out before I was born and died when I was two.
Unfortunately, the bullshit has only gotten worse.
