The New Graphic...

Well, finally a new banner graphic for ye old blog. Last time I did it around the time of the last State of the Union. But as much as I liked the "Win The Future" speech, it didn't catch me like his defense of the Social Safety net did. Hence, the quote is from that speech. If there had been room, I would have put in a quote I found by FDR: "We've always known that heedless self-interest was bad morals; we know now that it is bad economics."

Same thing really.

I also came dangerously close to using a quote of the President's from October 7, 2008 promising to kill Bin Laden, and paralleling that with his statement about the death of Bin Laden. But having those quotes along with that image would have been really, really inappropriate.
