“So the president is just a liar now. I guess it's fine to be strident when one is filled with perfection. I have chosen to work with what is...not what I wish it to be. Otherwise, I would get nothing done at all.”

“Ooh goody. Let's all keep turning on each other. That will move the agenda forward...right off the cliff.”

“Because he has been so reliable in the past. Why does our president not get the benefit of the doubt? Because he's made some choices we don't like? Lieberman does that for sport. But hey, turning on the president will really help us with other big issues coming down the pike....and we all know that the other democrats who ran for president would have been completely honest about everything...say...John Edwards for example?”

“In those private meetings were you? What else did you hear while there?”

“Oh...snap!”

“That's why he's risked his presidency and the wrath of everyone? Sorry, I don't find him self destructive in the least.”

“Sounds like a year of fantastical impatience to me...Oh how I wish that things were that simple.”

“If you believe Lieberman, your problems aren't with the president...”

“Ah...Lieberman. The bastion of integrity and truth. He flipped before his flops even flew from his lips...”

“There is no end to the depths we sink in coverage is there? In the scope of the history of relationships, is there any thing at all new here? Why do we have to continue to affirm the blurred (non-existent) lines between news and entertainment? We are covering the mothers of celebs personal lives too? The stink hole grows...”

“Thanks for choosing the "opt out" approach. We work hard to replace them....but you know that, and that's why you are blasting me. Stop stirring the pot...sorry, you can't. The industry has the dollars and resources to flood sites and the so called "media."”

“Excuse me Russ...you had the opportunity to run for president and YOU opted out. Look to your peers in the senate. You were more of a "moderate" until the Iraq war, so check your own history...remember McCain-Feingold? One of your best buds is John McCain. Don't blame the prez because he used what he had in real time to start the process. You know what is sorely missing in this discussion? The fact that republicans have systematically dismantled education that would provide children, teens and young adults the ability to understand civics and government. You think that was a coincidence? Think again. Those lessons have been replaced by organized right wing religious fever.
It's great to sit on the sidelines and preach about peace, war, healthcare and involvement by this president. I think Rahm should be gone and some other house cleaning issues solved, but this circular firing squad we insist on conducting, is ridiculous. Ask yourself...are there any people "planted" to stir this up in our progressive base? Just sayin'....”

“Wow. Now that's what I call "projecting." Time is running out, isn't it?”

“Ouch!”

“That's right...put politics above all else, always, no exceptions. A majority of people hated civil rights legislation too. I am sure there are some who still think that shouldn't have passed either. They are now the fringe minority...Elections have consequences. Olympia Snowe's side lost. If that changes, we can deal with her then. Right now...treat her like every other republican in congress. Like the non working, check collectors they are.”

“This is news? Seriously, I wish people would stop giving her attention.”

“Ok, we get it. Now can we please stop complaining and get rid of some people on Capital Hill? These constant gloom and doom headlines are getting us nowhere....”

“Absolutely. That's where I attention needs to go. Replacing these people. There has to be someone in each of these states that can do that.”

“The republican definition of bipartisanship: Vote the way republican tell you to 100% of the time or you are wrong and unpatriotic.”

“Brilliant!”

“I am just hoping that this wonderful young couple have a fantastically romantic holiday. They deserve it after all of the post elation, actually governing period of them being our "First Couple." Here is one suggestion to them...
Have the White House chef plan a fabulously romantic dinner...
Have Michele's mom situated and entertaining her friends ( or a special friend) with another great meal...
Dress in your most relaxing and sexy evening clothes...
Put "This is Christmas" on by Luther http://music.barnesandnoble.com/This-Is-Christmas/Luther-Vandross/e/886971110425/?itm=2&USRI=luther+vandross+this+is+christmass+christmas
After your own base has ended the love affair, cherish the one you still have with each other. It is by far longer lasting, more important, and sustaining...unlike people who decided to walk away after 11 months.”

“Yeah baby....”

“I did a show in Nebraska once. That was enough. They aren't even aware enough to figure out who he has been protecting all along. I fear that all of the young people who are wise enough to know who he is, have already left the state. Like Kansas...they are stuck in the days of "June and Ward Cleaver." They've left it to "Beaver" Ben to keep it that way.”

“Start saving up. IMHO you would have done better to have given money to Maddoff. Your opponent will lose. But hey...everyone has the right to blow their stash...”

“No, actually not. That would be the name for the man he replaced, and the 40 men of "NO" that were left behind.”
