Quote of the week

First, some context: in Wednesday's debate, John McCain accused ACORN (a non-profit organization that focuses on registering minorities and low-income earners to vote) of "committing one of the greatest frauds in voter history in this country; maybe destroying the fabric of democracy"


"Thank you Senator. The fabric of democracy is being destroyed by ACORN. I am so tired of hearing people say it was being destroyed by concentrating unchecked power in the executive branch, or politicizing the justice department, or condoning torture, or warrentless wire tapping of American citizens. It was actually destroyed by homeless people filling out registration forms with the name Mickey Mouse!" ~Stephen Colbert, Thursday, Oct 16
