“Good evening. I`m Sarah Palin`s left hand. All of us hands have been written on but when was the last time you were written on for something that wasn`t either trivia, stuff that the brain figured it was going to forget, you know, peanut butter, gravy, Diet Dr. Pepper.”
“To illustrate to Republicans how to lie, the Democrat`s proposals to help small businesses would really hurt small businesses, Frank Luntz used a picture of a Democratic congressman happily standing in front of his small business. And by the way, Congressman Shower is a complete supporter of the Democrat`s financial reform proposals.”
“So "The New York Post" lifted from an NPR blog, which lifted from Laura Bush`s ex-press secretary`s blog, which lifted from Daily Finance`s blog, which left out details that makes the whole meme nonsensical.”
“So if you criticize American health care, you get on a list in Japan? Or if you criticize American health care you get on a list in America? Or Michele Bachmann just believes every random stranger who comes up and tells her a story about Japan, and she assumes it`s going to come true here?”
“He was not someone willing to give up everything he had to stop what he saw as an unforgivable sin. He was not acting from some deeply felt conviction. He was a man who simply, like a million men before him, latched onto a cause, used God as an excuse, and murdered someone, and then tried to get away.”
“It's nice to see the president is responding quickly and decisively. Too bad it's not to the needs and desires of his own party, more importantly, the majority of the American people.”
“Some people rightly fear right-wing media bias. Some claim there is a left-wing equivalent. The real threat to journalism and thus to democracy is its blinding lack of thought, of effort, of imagination. As I said in sports--get a roll of stamps and mail it in.”
“It is almost literally true that any political science fiction nightmare you can now dream up, no matter whether you are conservative or a
liberal, it is now legal. Because the people who can make it legal can now be entirely bought and sold. No actual citizens required in the campaign fund raising process. And the entirely bought and sold politicians can change any laws. And any legal defense you can structure now can be undone by the politicians who will be bought and sold into office this November, or two years from now.”
“Scott Brown is an irresponsible, homophobic, racist, reactionary, sexist, ex-nude model, teabagging supporter of violence against women and against politicians with whom he disagrees. And all the rabid right-wing howling about that only helps prove it. The response to lies is to offer the truth. The respond to truths you don`t like is to simply call them lies.”
“In Scott Brown, we have an irresponsible, homophobic, racist, reactionary, sexist, ex-nude model, teabagging supporter of violence against women and against politicians with whom he disagrees. And if he or you don`t like that characterization, my answer to you is simple: disprove it, because he hasn`t.”
“In short, in Scott Brown we have an irresponsible, homophobic, racist, reactionary, ex nude-model, tea-bagging supporter of violence against women and politicians with whom he disagrees.”
“It is one thing to antagonize half the nation when one injects into the subject of charity hatred against one of the political parties. But what are you gaining? Whose interests could you possibly be serving when you come out wholeheartedly and defiantly, again and again, against human charity?”
“After yesterday having projected his own hatred into the sad and somber equation of Haiti, Limbaugh today discouraged Americans from contributing to Haitian earthquake relief.”
“Mr. Robertson, Mr. Limbaugh, your lives are not worth those of the lowest, meanest, poorest of those victims still lying under the that rubble in Haiti tonight. You serve no good. You serve no God. You inspire only stupidity and hatred.”
“Rudy Giuliani, desperate to relive his glory days politicizing terror, has now broken the international record for the most corrections of the same false statement.”
