QUOTE OF THE WEEK

Posted By Cliff Tuttle | January 10, 2011

No. 562

“You’re simpletons; you’re idiots if you don’t get that!”

These immortal words were spoken by the Governor of Pennsylvania to Leslie Stahl on 60 Minutes on Sunday night, on the subject of whether slots are on balance a plus for the state because gambling addicts would have just spent their paychecks in New Jersey, Delaware or West Virginia.

Gee, its too bad Ed Rendell will be leaving office so soon.  After eight years, he has become so entertaining of late. By contrast, the new Governor of Pennsylvania is so cautious he may not be quotable at all.
