Stupid people are the handful of bored tenants in this building - single men - who stand around in the lobby because they're so bored, & when I come home about 8 pm on a pleasant, brisk evening, feeling good, having walked back from the library with some fresh books & maybe having stopped by Dunkin' Donuts to watch CNN & look at the pretty college girls working the counter, say to me, "It's too cold to be out," like I'm the stupid one.

More Bushshit:

WASHINGTON - Two contract employees for the State Department have been fired and a third disciplined for inappropriately looking at Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama's passport file, a spokesman said Thursday.

Spokesman Sean McCormack said the department itself detected the instances of "imprudent curiosity," which occurred separately on Jan. 9, Feb. 21 and March 14. He would not release the names of the employees.

Similar breaches involving public officials have happened in the past.

During the 1992 presidential campaign, officials in the administration of President George H.W. Bush searched the State Department files of then-Democratic nominee Bill Clinton. An inspector general's report called the search improper and said it was aimed at finding material that would be damaging to Clinton's campaign.
