“Canon law has always been at odds with civil law, and until the church is made subservient to the state these abuses will continue. I lived in Ireland off and on for years, and only when they joined the EU and EU human rights law went into effect, did womens rights, gay rights, and childrens rights progress into the 20th century.”

“Do as Ry Cooder said; Bopp til ya drop!”

“If Nadir wants to make himself useful he can run against that corporate crony Lieberman. Running against Dodd would just cinch Ralph's legandary status as a serial jerkaholic.”

“Perhaps Perino misspoke. I think she means there were no terrorist attacks while Shrub was on vacation..”

“What are they afraid of? Apparently, everything.”

“Let it go, Sarah. Harping on your past embarrassments makes you sound petty, vindictive, and not too bright.”

“Perino gives a Dikipedia assist to Cheney, widening the Bush administration credibility gap to a chasm that can be seen from the moon. Have a nice flight, Dana.”

“Come off it. Anything Bill did may have been petty, but it was redundant. Carolyn Kennedy had her own embarrassing moments on camera, y'know? She was ill at ease, unprepared, marginally coherent, and self destructed with no help from anyone.”

“Sometimes words make all the difference. I believe in that price range, the proper term would be 'consort.'”

“I knew conservatives would reveal their latent racism when Obama took office, but I had no idea their world view could be flipped like a light switch: One day they were cock eyed myoptimists, and the next, Cassanramatics; prognosticators of doom.

At this point, we should pay them some small mind only to keep an eye on how history is being rewritten.

Swing voters tend to be critical thinkers, and I don't think they're buying. Even dim bulb Joe the Plumber has a certain simplistic skepticism, and I doubt even he can be swung by more calculated panic and pig in a pokism.”

“If they want to dignify themselves and their movement Teabaggers should take a lesson from their namesakes and stuff one anothers ba¶¶s in their mouths.”

“Here we have the latest crop of mediocre narcissists, emboldened to see one of their own rise far past her level of competence, clearing the way for similar weak minded ideological sycophants to aspire to dream the impractical dream of ruling over their betters.

This is where all doomed dictatorships begin, and where the dream of American exceptionalism ends.”

“Joe Lieberman needs to be primaried next year and run out of the senate once and for all. He's a shill for corporate insurance; always has been, always will be. He'll do and say anything to maximize his media exposure and his corporate campaign donations. He's no Democrat, and he's a pretty lousy Independent as well. History will not remember him fondly, and the sooner he's history the better.”

“Lets hope Schumer is right. He's been calling the game so far...”

“gotcha journalist creep Sean Hannity fooled Sara into making the same simple mistake as the Bush administration. Though she made the mistake repeatedly, thankfully she was out of office at the time...”

“Conservative activists goooood...­.. Liberal activists baaaaaad..­...”

“Irrefutable proof that you can fool 20% of the people all of the time.”

“You can't be innovative unless you acknowledge that things change. America used to be a place where things changed fast and people weren't afraid of that fact. Many of us, however, have been smug and complacent since the fifties. We found a lofty perch we liked, and decided things were going to settle down and stay the same from now on.
Only they didn't.
Anyone who's been to a class reunion has see the former football star, now a middle aged, desperate to hold onto the glory days in high school; hold onto that self righteous attitude even as the circumstances that warranted it have changed.

America, wake up: High school is over.
If corporate pump and dumps, winning in the cash flow business, and new improved ways for banks to screw their customers are the sum total of modern American innovation, then we deserve to lose our place of privilege. Our bonds will become junk the way our way of living and thinking have become junk. The rest of the world will have learned to take the best of American innovation, mixed in a bit of their own, and left the trash behind.”

“I hear a lot of brave noise from Republicans about cutting waste in government, but when someone actually tries to cut waste in a program they never wanted in the first place, they go on a fault finding mission devoid of facts. This is the worst kind of double edged hypocrisy for political gain at the expense of the public good. McCain should be ashamed of himself, shut up on this subject and focus on something he knows something about; bloated military expenditures greater than the rest of the world combined that are bankrupting us.”

“Suborning perjury is a crime. It's punishable by law in all 50 states, with up to five years in prison. Ms. Taitz would also stand to be disbarred, assuming she has actually passed the bar anywhere..­.

So....woul­d her owners, for her own sake, please muzzle this rabid poodle?”

“This has been your daily shooting rampage, brought to you by Smith and Wesson, Colt, the N.R.A. and bought off members of you state and national legislatures. Have a great day!”

“What about Dr. Strangelove? Doesn't the cold war count?”

“Bull, bull, and more bull! Pumping and dumping is not work. This guy needs to go, and his whole cadre with him.”

“Too big to fail = too greedy to live.”
