I was browsing old issues of National Review (don’t ask) when I found these pithy aphorisms. Enjoy!
From the pages of NR, Sept. 11, 1987:
Everybody knows everything.
Who says A must say B.
Just as good, isn’t.
You cannot invest in retrospect.
Wherever there is prohibition there’s a bootlegger.
In every project there’s a Schlamm.
You can’t divorce yourself.
Every member must pay his dues.
No excuse, sir.
If there’s no alternative, there’s no problem.
As I understand it, Rule #6 refers to Willi Schlamm, who was the sort of person who’s often right but always is a walking hemorrhoid.

Besides being funny, this video proves that Nick Gillespie owns something other than black t-shirts.

The RNC is being catty (H/T ):
National Republicans turned the tables on their political counterparts Wednesday by redirecting angry telephone calls coming into their switchboard to the Democratic National Committee.
The DNC released a Web video early in the morning accusing the GOP of inciting mob activity at town hall meetings.
At the end of the video, the DNC instructs people to call the Republican National Committee to express outrage. Callers who dial the RNC’s main number to voice their concern about the DNC’s charges are told to press 1, which sends them to the DNC’s main switchboard.

Tom notes below, the beer summit was a touch staged. Hops we can believe in, perhaps. I think if XKCD today had happened, the nation would be better off.
