"When a man loves cats, I am his friend and comrade, without further introduction." (Mark Twain)

Боб Дорнан - один из самых придурочных конгрессменов в американской истории. В 1977 его выступление завершало анти-феминисткий митинг в Хьюстоне под фашистским лозунгом "Бог, Семья, Страна". В 1995, объявляя о своем решении баллотироваться в президенты США, Дорнан призывал к закрытию министерства образования:
"Under the circumstances, it is absolutely a no-brainer to abolish the Department of Education. Bob Dole has called for this, Lamar Alexander, a former Secretary of Education under George Bush, Bill Bennett after he left that position and went to another job in the White House. I think before this race is over, all nine of us will be calling for the abolition of the Department of Education, as are most people in the cloakroom that I have spoken to here on the Republican side of the aisle, the majority side.
Again, some of our friends who call themselves conservatives do more harm than good on this issue as they attempt to play to the very natural interests parents have in the education of their children. All we hear about from some so-called conservatives is how we need to train our children to compete in the world markets of the 21st century. More math, more science, more national goals and standards.
Well, whether we like to hear it or not, Mr. Speaker, it is just New World Order mumbo-jumbo in the main. All this talk of remaining competitive, the best, the best in the world, the best this, the best that, all of this for economic purposes only is global baloney. Global baloney. It is funny how we did not need this kind of political leadership to become the most industrious Nation that had ever existed. Only social engineers talk about America in macro terms as if they know better than parents what is best for their children and how to train them and how to educate them."
