Bill Bennett Thinks You're Stupid

A ways into his interview with Hugh Hewitt, we witness this delightful exchange, in which Bill Bennett recalls meeting the toast of PBS whilst in-flight:

BB: I’ve been the drug czar, so you never know, you know? And I look, and it’s Ken Burns, little bearded face. He says Mr. Bennett, I’m Ken Burns. And I said oh, I know who you are. He said you gave me my start. I gave him a grant when I was chairman of the National Endowment for the Humanities, for something called The Brooklyn Bridge.

HH: Oh, yes. His first.

BB: It was a film he made about...

Wait, don't tell me!

(Is it any mystery why the GOP is running away from these guys faster than Carl Lewis?)
