If you vote for Bush, you have lost your mind

“I’d say if you live in the United States of America and you vote for George Bush, you have lost your mind.”

- John Edwards


Just tax the heck out of people

“Warren [will] tell you his preference is… let the market work… and then just tax the heck out of people at the end and just redistribute it. That way you’re not impeding efficiency, and you’re achieving equity on the back end.”

- Barack Obama


Unconstitutional?

“Who really cares about it being unconstitutional?”

- Tonya Payne


I’m not a Liberal, I’m “Correct”

“I’ve been accused of being a liberal, which is interesting because the last time I was on doing the news in the late ’90’s, I did 218 consecutive shows about Bill Clinton and Monica Lewinsky, and no one accused me of being a liberal then. It’s very interesting to way you can be sort of pigeonholed. I like to think of myself politically as ‘correct’…I don’t have a rooting interest other than in what happens to the country.”

- Keith Olbermann , July 28, 2006.


The 1994 “deal” with North Korea’s Kim Il-sung in 1994 was a complete success.

“What the North Koreans were waiting for was some treatment of their exalted leader with respect and a direct communication. [. . .] I outlined the specific points [concerning blocking North Korean development of nuclear weapons] and with very little equivocation, he agreed. I think it’s all roses now. [. . .] In my opinion, this was one of those perfect agreements where both sides won and got what they wanted and [where] nobody blinked, nobody had to yield.”

- Jimmy Carter , June 22, 1994.


I’m a global citizen; the world’s ills are my fault.

“I’m a global citizen. Slavery: my fault. Inequality: my fault. Global environmental degradation: my fault. Population explosion: my fault. But I think I can do something about all of it . . .”

- Ted Turner


Men have ruined everything; let women rule.

“The men have had millions of years where we’ve been running things. We’ve screwed it up hopelessly. Let’s give it to the women. [Men should be banned from public office] for 100 years in every part of the world.”

- Ted Turner


Brits are smarter than Americans.

“Brits are far more intelligent and civilized than Americans.”

- Gwyneth Paltrow , February 2006.


America is too capitalistic.

“I love the English way, which is not as capitalistic as it is in America.”

- Gwyneth Paltrow , January 2006.


Children should not think for themselves.

“You can’t make Socialists out of individualists — children who know how to think for themselves spoil the harmony of the collective society which is coming, where everyone is interdependent.”

- John Dewey
