"Nattering Nabobs Of Negativism"

Yesterday Variety posted this article about John Edwards' squabbles with the media. The author admits that most of Edwards' attacks are directed at Fox News, not exactly a risky tactic for a Democrat, and then hearkens back to the days of Nixon and Agnew to put Edwards' relationship to the media in perspective.

The reference back to Agnew was great, not for perspective it brought, but so the author could use one of the best political quotes of all time "nattering nabobs of negativism." I think we need to do a shirt that works that quote in somehow. For more Spiro Agnew awesomeness click here, the man was a sound bite machine.
