Simpsons Spoof on Harvard

The Simpsons aired a parody on the Lawrence Summers/Harvard controversy tonight, whereby Principal Skinner was fired for stating that girls might not be as good as boys in math. Like Lawrence Summers, Principal Skinner was forced into retirement for his insensitive comments. (Well, he stayed on as assistant groundskeeper.) Skinner summed up the ridiculousness of Harvard's position when Lisa asked him for his thoughts on the subject:

Skinner: "I don't have any opinions anymore. All I know is that no one is better than anyone else and everyone is the best at everything."

Perhaps that's what Summers should have said.
