14 Heartbreakingly Adorable Quotes From Winnie-The-Pooh

http://www.dailykos.com/story/2014/01/20/1271184/-Republican-senate-candidate-is-pro-machine-guns-in-schools

South Carolina state Sen. Lee Bright, a RepublicanOfCourse, is mounting a primary challenge to insufficiently conservative Sen. Lindsey Graham. He wants high schoolers to learn how to use guns in school, and doesn't think the damn gubbermint has a right to tell you whether or not you can bring your own personal grenade launcher or futuristic death robot to school if you feel like that sort of thing. You know, Freedom.

“Piglet sidled up to Pooh from behind. "Pooh?" he whispered.
"Yes, Piglet?"
"Nothing," said Piglet, taking Pooh's hand. "I just wanted to be sure of you.”
