Thomas Aquinas in a Leotard

Salon has a great article on the Young Republican's Convention that was held recently in Washington. As is to be expected, there are plenty of amusing anecdotes about those strange creatures that feel the need to rebel against authority by joing a party that controls all of the Federal Government, most state houses and dominates large portions of the media. However, I'll skip these stories (a good number entertaining, as well as alarming) and tell you about the possibly the greatest psuedo intellectual ever, the ex-WWF wrestler, Warrior (his real name). You might not think someone with a one word name would be a font of wisdom, but you'd be wrong. The wise Warrior offered listeners at the convention these gems:

"[The conservative movement] needs people ready to actualize the entirety of their human potential."

and

"Knowledge of good and evil is the best fruit on the tree of knowledge."

With great minds like these, it is know wonder the Republicans are winning the battle of ideas.
