Eddie Izzard: Grade the lies. Hitler saying, “We’re not killing the Jews” when there’s six million dead is a different thing than… lying about double-parking. There are different levels of lies.

From an email…
For the next time someone tells you race doesn’t matter in education.

If you check out my Twitter profile right now (it’s just before 2 AM EDT), you’ll see that I’m very close to two “milestones.” I currently have 1,994 followers, and I’ve tweeted 19,974 times since creating an account on July 5, 2008.
