A Good Quote

Bill Richardson isn't that good of a campaign speaker, but he did get off a good one today:

Democratic Presidential candidate Governor Bill Richardson, campaigning today in Iowa, issued the following statement regarding the recent “spying” incident involving the National Football League’s New England Patriots:

“The President has been allowed to spy on Americans without a warrant, and our U.S. Senate is letting it continue. You know something is wrong when the New England Patriots face stiffer penalties for spying on innocent Americans than Dick Cheney and George Bush.”

I like that. After all, politics is often compared to football, sometimes with very tortured analogies. Hopefully we'll see more like this.
