Quote of (Last) Year

Had I been blogging at the time, this would have been the 2006 QOTY. It's from a May 15, 2006, page 1 Washington Post article by the sublimely named "Darryl Fears," headlined Immigrant Supporters To Counter Bush Speech, specifically the second graph (emphasis added):
The We Are America Alliance of 41 immigrant resource groups, unions, churches, day laborers and Spanish-language disc jockeys opposes House legislation that would criminalize illegal immigrants, but it will lobby Congress and compromise to realize its goal of obtaining legal residency for many of the 11 million people who live in the shadows.
After May 15th 2006, I stopped mixing mass media with breakfast cereal—why chance chortling 'till milk spews out your nose?
