Doonesbury Say What?

"Glenn's like the high school government teacher so many wish they'd had."
-- Sarah Palin

"Please, America, take this man for what he says....Read Mein Kampf."
--Glenn Beck on Obama

"Is this where we're headed?"
-- Beck, showing photos of Hitler, Stalin and Lenin

You know, I've had a couple of morons over the years. I had an electronics teacher who, in 1978, thought transistors and vacuum tubes were a swell idea and integrated circuits were a passing fad. I had a computer teacher in college who thought Cobol wasn't used much any more (it's STILL the largest installed base of code in the world and now supports an object model including inheritance and polymorphism, along with database functionality). But if I had a teacher like Beck, I'd change schools to get as far away from him as possible.

Speaking of Beck, well, speaking of Birthers, Hawaii passed a law that the department of vital records can ignore repeat requests for Obama's birth certificate if they receive more than one from the same person in one year.
