Quotable

Here are two gems from Richard Cohen's column yesterday. You can read the full column at the NY Daily News.
"Alchemy is the purported science of turning base metals into gold. It does not exist. Political alchemy is the ability to turn hard failures into gossamer triumphs. It does exist. The inauguration of President Bush for a second term proves it."
and ..
"The result [of Bush's economic policies like the "reckeless tax cuts"] has been a burgeoning national debt that can be paid off only if space exploration discovers a planet of suckers willing to buy U.S. bonds. Is the universe that big?"
