Quotes for the week.

I have come to conclude, prematurely maybe, that the week is too long and events (both here and abroad) too numerous to just have one quote for the week. So until there is only one notable quote in an entire week, I shall not limit myself to choosing one quote for the week. I shall instead let events as they unfold dictate to me how many quote(s) for the week we will have. I hope you continue to come back (or sign up for email updates) to find out. Thank you for reading, and here goes this week's quotes for the week:

1) "It's like saying everybody can have a meal but only people with [a particular] skin can get the dessert".
- Justice Anthony Kennedy, U. S. Supreme Court Justice, in a quote that suggests the flawed logic, and probable dooming, of public school diversity programs that use race as a factor in deciding where students go to school.

2) "Ernie Fletcher is the David Koresh of Kentucky Republican politics. He's boarded the windows and locked the doors and said, 'Take it from us, we'll burn it to the ground."
- Ted jackson, KY Republican campaign consultant and U. S. Rep. Anne Northup's campaign chairman, "dissing" the Gov. and infuriating his staunch supporters.

3) "It is a report to solve American problems, not to solve Iraq's problems."
- Ayad al-Sammarai, an influential Sunni Muslim politician, showing disatisfaction with the Iraq Study Group report, while obviously oblivious to the reality that Iraqis will have to eventually control their own destiny.
