Quotation for Today: Kids' Parents Vote Against Narrow-Mindedness Too

William O'Brien is the Republican speaker of the New Hampshire State House.  According to The New York Times article, ""Keeping Students From the Polls," Mr. O'Brien spoke the preceding words in a meeting with a Tea Party group.


Perhaps Mr. O'Brien needs reminding that students have parents who also vote; and many of them, like their children, see through the greed and narrow-mindedness of conservatives like the speaker of the New Hampshire State House.
