Idiocy of the Day

Here's a fun quote from North Carolina State Rep. Drew Saunders (D-ugh), spat forth in the process of making the argument that a $200 reporting requirement for gifts from non-family members was too low:

"Even Baby Jesus accepted gifts, and I don't believe it corrupted him."
True. And heck, if gifts didn't corrupt a depraved reprobate like the Christ child, then surely politicians can stay above the fray. Yeah.
