Why Didn't I Think of That?

This morning I was listening to news that counts, Howard Stern. Howard (we’re on first name basis) played a clip from one of America’s leaders, William Bennett.

“But I do know that it’s true that if you wanted to reduce crime, you could, if that were your sole purpose, you could abort every black baby in this country, and your crime rate would go down.”

- Bennett, Morning in America, 9/28/05

For those of you unfamiliar with the man, let’s start by saying the Bush family is a proud supporter. For the record, yes, you can judge a person by the company he or she keeps.

Bennett was the Director of Education under the Reagan administration. Education of, oh the entire United States of America, hm, kind of an important role. Under George (no-W) Bush, he was the Michael Douglas of Traffic, the US Drug Czar.

With his education and anti-drug campaigns, he naturally is the author of several novels on morality. I mean, thank God someone’s teaching morals around here.

I bet Bennett did an, "Uh-Oh did I do that?"
