Randolf P. Squires, in finest military trim, is saying, "And I say this to the Department of Education: 'Literacy is overrated!!!'"

And a wild cheering ensued.

1. Where do they get these genius???

2. Yeah dumb down the population so

they can really believe Fox, Rush and Palin.

3. PS

Folks you can see...that is why the red states are cutting education funds, throwing out teachers and trying to ruin our Department of Education. The more people the dumb down, the more they think they can sucker them into the republican tea bags.

4. It's the Karl Rove plan.

"Once they get educated, we lose them."

From the mouth (eeewwww) of the genius himself.

6. Wow ... do you have a source for that quote? I'd like to pass that one around.

MTIA!

7. I've been passing it around for months...so I'm glad you asked me for a source..

..because apparently I've been misquoting him. I can't remember where I first heard it...but here's what I've found on several "quote" websites... two of them are thinkexist.com and politicalhumor.com.
They agree on the words...but I couldn't find sourcing on the websites about where or when he actually said it.
Here's the quote:

“As people do better, they start voting like Republicans - unless they have too much education and vote Democratic, which proves there can be too much of a good thing”

Mea Culpa. I'm going to continue researching to make sure he actually said THAT!
Thanks for holding my feet to the fire.
I'll report when I get more solid sourcing.

5. "And when GeogeWashington was at his lowest at Valley Forge,

and just about to give up, he heard the Gipper's voice come out of the blizzard, 'Win one for the Gipper,' it said. And do you know what? He did. And went on to win the Super Bowl as well!!! . . . What do you think of that? . . . Boy, it sure pays to know history."
