WHAT is America but beauty queens, millionaires, stupid records and Hollywood?

Adolf Hitler Former Chancellor Of Germany

Where ideas are concerned, America can be counted on to do one of two things: Take a good idea and run it completely into the ground, or take a bad idea and run it completely into the ground.

George Carlin Comedian
