"She is too stupid to deserve an answer."
"She is too stupid to deserve an answer." - Gore Vidal, responding to Michele Bachmann's claim that she became a Republican after being horrified by Vidal's "trashing" of the Founding Fathers in his 1973 novel, Burr.

3. She just wants to pretend she reads
Republican politicians seem to think this will make them look smart. Bob Steele, "It was the best of times, it was the worst of times", from his favorite book, WAR AND PEACE!?!11?

Vidal responded appropriately. His name is now in red.

4. Indeed, this has been a challenging week...
