Rick just appeared on CNN's "Inside Politics," and repeated his convoluted argument comparing abortion to slavery. He went on to say that he hopes every Pennsylvanian reads his book because, "90% of what's in this book, 80% of Pennsylvanians are going to agree with." We're still trying to figure out what that means, much less how he arrived at those numbers. What's that old line about statistics?
But in the interview's finest moment, Rick claims that his book represents "the mainstream of thought in Pennsylvania." We respectfully disagree. Here's the clip:

Brian Fantana: They've done studies, you know. 60 percent of the time, it works every time.
Ron Burgundy: That doesn't make sense.
