Describing Condoleezza Rice.

“[Condoleezza Rice is President Bush's] ‘House Nigga’.”

Comparing George Bush with Adolf Hitler.

“Lately we’re being told that it’s either (a) inappropriate or (b) untrue to refer to Bush’s illegitimate junta as Nazi, neo-Nazi, or neofascist. Because, you know, you’re not necessarily a Nazi just because you seize power like one, take advantage of a national Reichstag Fire-like tragedy like one, build concentration and death camps like one, start unprovoked wars like one, Red-bait your liberal opponents like one or create a national security apparatus that behaves like something a Nazi would create and even has a Nazi-sounding name. . . Of course there are differences [between the Bush administration and Hitler]. Hitler, for example, was legally elected . . . I’ll be happy to stop comparing Bush to Hitler when he stops acting like him.”

Bush is using 9-11 for his own political gain.

“We’ve been treated to some astonishingly vile images over the last two weeks: office workers hurling themselves into a hundred-floor-high abyss. A gaping, smoldering hole in the financial center of our greatest city. George W. Bush passing himself off as a patriot, even as he disassembles the Constitution with the voracious glee of a piranha skeletonizing a cow. Now we know why 7,000 people [initial casualty estimates were high] sacrificed their lives — so that we’d all forget how Bush stole a presidential election. . . . Bush has capitalized on a nation’s grief, confusion and anger to extort a political blank check payable in young American blood.”

Liberals are superior.

“Why shouldn’t those of us on the [East and West] coasts feel superior? We eat better, travel more, dress better, watch cooler movies, earn better salaries, meet more interesting people, listen to better music and know more about what’s going on in the world. If you voted for Bush, we accept that we have to share the country with you. We’re adjusting to the possibility that there may be more of you than there are of us. But don’t demand our respect. You lost it on November 2.”

Comparing George Bush to Saddam Hussein.

Ted Rall — Wed, 18 Oct 2006 16:25:12 +0000

“Saddam Hussein, influenced by fascism, ordered the deaths of tens of thousands of people, fought two disastrous wars, turned his nation into an international pariah and ruined his country’s economy. In other words, his record is identical to George W. Bush’s.”

Reagan is burning in hell.

“I’m sure he’s turning crispy brown right about now.”
