During a discussion of Ronald Reagan:
PROFESSOR: What do we know about supply-side economics?
DUDE IN THE BACK: It doesn't work.
Shortly after, another student answered the same question, or a very similar one (I can't remember which):
STUDENT: It involves, um, tax cuts for the wealthy...
And near the end of class:
PROFESSOR: I am, as most of you probably know, a very partisan Democrat.
CD'S INNER MONOLOGUE: Really? I could've sworn that your warnings against using "jingoist nationalism" in papers and your proud announcement of being a card-carrying ACLU member made you a hardcore conservative!!!
That's it for now. I'll have Stinchisms of the week on Thursday. He didn't say enough memorable stuff today to justify a post yet.
