Quote of the Day

"I'm in total agreement with Rand Paul [that businesses should be allowed to determine whether they are going to discriminate on the basis of race]. You can call it public accommodation, and it is, but it's a private business. And if a private business wants to say, 'We don't want any blond anchorwomen or mustached guys,' it ought to be their right. Are we going to say to the black students' association they have to take white people, or the gay softball association they have to take straight people? We should have freedom of association in America."—Fox hack and total genius John Stossel.
