Quote of the Day

"We all have to get together in this country and stop this right now and stand up to those who would demagogue. There is nothing- absolutely nothing- wrong with criticizing our government, on any topic, and challenging it to live up to the democratic ideals. It is not unpatriotic. In fact, what could be more patriotic?"
-NYC Mayor Michael Bloomberg (to graduates at the University of Chicago)
