From Pine View Farm

QOTD 3

A caller to the Diane Rehm show (about 38 mnutes in):

My question is . . . why it is that our legislators can find a way to turn over $900 billion dollars a year to our Department of Defense to discover new and better ways to destroy people, yet there is a hue and cry from many of them over spending $900 billion over a 10-year period to help the people of this country.

There is no moral answer.

    I bet the caller didn’t get any answer either.

    Um…which hour?  It’s a 2-hour program.

    Was this a guy from Benton KY?  I just got an e-mail from the program director in Murray saying a regional call was picked up at about 10:35 (central time)
