Two quotes stand out this week as both bizarre and funny at the same time. First, Miss Teen South Carolina is asked why a fifth of Americans can't locate the U.S. on a map. As if that isn't a sad fact in and of itself, look at her response:
"I personally believe that U.S. Americans are unable to do so because some people out there in our nation don't have maps and I believe that our education like such as in South Africa and the Iraq everywhere like such as and I believe that they should our education over here in the U.S. should help the U.S. or should help South Africa and should help the Iraq and the Asian countries so we will be able to build up our future for."
And finally, our good friend Senator Larry Craig explains how his feet happened to bump into an undercover officers feet under a bathroom stall:
Officer: Okay. Did you do anything with your feet?
Larry Craig: Positioned them, I don't know. I don't know at the time. I'm a fairly wide guy.
Officer: I understand.
Larry Craig: I had to spread my legs.
Officer: Okay.
Larry Craig: When I lower my pants so they won't slide.
Officer: Okay.
Larry Craig: Did I slide them too close to yours? Did I, I looked down once, your foot was close to mine.
Officer: Yes.
Larry Craig: Did we bump? Ah, you said so, I don't recall that, but apparently we were close.
