Quote For The Day

By The Daily Dish

Sep 16 2008, 5:46 AM ET

"Fascist writer Westbrook Pegler, an avowed racist who Sarah Palin approvingly quoted in her acceptance speech for the moral superiority of small town values, expressed his fervent hope about my father, Robert F. Kennedy, as he contemplated his own run for the presidency in 1965, that "some white patriot of the Southern tier will spatter his spoonful of brains in pubic premises before the snow flies."     It might be worth asking Governor Palin for a tally of the other favorites from her reading list," - Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. (Hat tip: Danny.)
