From the rebuttal to the president's State of the Union address, by Mitch
Daniels:

"In word and deed, the President and his allies tell us that we just cannot
handle ourselves in this complex, perilous world without their benevolent

wrong mortgage, the wrong school for our kids; why, unless they stop us, we
might pick the wrong light bulb!"

mangers and xmas trees
