Houston Mayor Annise Parker [L] with Mike, just before the show. (Dec. 7, 2015)
An educated electorate is a prerequisite for a democracy.
SIGNOFF QUOTE[s]:
There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there always has been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that “my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge.”☛ Newsweek: “A Cult of Ignorance” by Isaac Asimov, January 21, 1980, p. 19. PDF. [Thanks to http://aphelis.net for the full quote and it’s citation]

SIGNOFF QUOTE[s]:
“We do not know one promise these men made, one pledge they gave, one word they spoke; but we do know they summed up and perfected, by one supreme act, the highest virtues of men and citizens. For love of country they accepted death, and thus resolved all doubts, and made immortal their patriotism and their virtue.” ~ James A. Garfield, May 30, 1868 Arlington National Cemetery (Member of the U.S. House of Representatives from Ohio‘s 19th district, March 4, 1863 – November 8, 1880. Chairman of the House Committee on Military Affairs, March 4, 1867 – March 4, 1869) Source: http://www.pbs.org/national-memorial-day-concert/memorial-day/history/

SIGNOFF QUOTE[s]:
“You know, comrades, that I think in regard to this: I consider it completely unimportant who in the party will vote, or how; but what is extraordinarily important is this — who will count the votes, and how.”~ Joseph Stalin (A historical source has been found for one version of this quote. The source is Boris Bazhanov’s Memoirs of Stalin’s Former Secretary, published in 1992 and only available, so far as I know, in Russian. The pertinent passage, which appears near the end of chapter five, reads as follows (loosely translated with the help of Google)

SIGNOFF QUOTE: “A lie can travel halfway round the world while the truth is putting on its shoes.” ~ This quote has been attributed to Mark Twain, but it has never been verified as originating with Twain. This quote may have originated with Charles Haddon Spurgeon (1834-92) who attributed it to an old proverb in a sermon delivered on Sunday morning, April 1, 1855. Spurgeon was a celebrated English fundamentalist Baptist preacher. His words were: “A lie will go round the world while truth is pulling its boots on.”

Vladimir Putin can make this statement thanks exclusively to the Bush/Cheney Admininstration.
[A]sked about the 10 Russian “sleeper agents” caught in the US in June and later deported to Moscow. Putin claimed that they had not harmed US interests, adding: “The methods employed by our special services differ in a good way from those used by US special services. Thank God, neither the agents in question or any other Russian intelligence officers are known to have been involved in creating secret prisons, kidnappings, or torture.”

So the question again remains: When will this nation have the courage to clear its good name and indict our homegrown war criminals?
