List of voters for the quote

Teacher: George Washington. Who can tell me who he is? Sherman: [raising his hand] Oh, me! I can! I can! Teacher: [looking through her student checklist] Uh, Sherman. Sherman: The first president of the United States of America. Teacher: Good job. And when President Washington was a little boy, what kind of tree did he cut down? Sherman: [raising his hand again] Oh, oh, me, me! Me, me! Teacher: [as Penny raises her hand] Penny? Penny: A cherry tree. Sherman: Apocryphal. Teacher: What kind of tree is that? Sherman: It's not a tree; it's a word. Apocryphal. It means that story is not true. Teacher: Really? Sherman: Yeah. George Washington never cut down a cherry tree, and he never said he couldn't lie. People made those stories up to teach kids a lesson about lying, but they're not true. He did cross the Delaware River Christmas night, 1776, though. My dad took me there this summer. We crossed it, too. I fell in. [The class, except Penny, laugh] Teacher: [astonished] Well, looks like someone really knows their history, huh, Penny? [Penny glares and growls jealously at Sherman and snaps her pencil in half]
