Quote of the Day (P.J. O'Rourke, on America’s Problems and Politicians)

“Our nation faces a multitude of puzzling, complex and abstruse problems. Most Americans aren't sure what to do about them. But we lack politicians who have the courage to say, ‘I’m not sure what to do about them either.’ We even we lack politicians who have the courage to say, ‘I’m not sure what ‘abstruse’ means, either.’”—American satirist and libertarian conservative P.J. O'Rourke (1947-2022), “Who Knows What We Need? Not Me,” Washington Post, Jan. 23, 2020
