Republicans are racist.

“[The Republicans’] idea of equal rights is the American flag and the Confederate swastika flying side by side.”

- Julian Bond , February 2006.


The Bush people are bastards.

“When I heard the news flash that a plane had crashed into a Manhattan apartment tower, I didn’t think, how horrible. I said to myself: those rotten bastards in the White House. I wasn’t thinking terrorists. I was thinking the Bush regime had gone to new extremes in its search for a believable ‘red alert’.”

- William Greider


I hate Republicans.

“I hate the Republicans and everything they stand for.”

- Howard Dean , January 2005.


Republicans have no talent.

“If, indeed, all those blue states all got together and seceded from the union, think what would be left for those red states: nothing. There would be no educational system. You would have nothing. What would be left to you? I mean, where is all of this talent in this country? It’s on both sides, the Northeast corridor.”

- Geraldine Ferraro , November 5, 2004.


Republicans don’t live in a “reality-based community”.

“The problem is just this: Slightly more than half of the citizens of this country simply do not care about what those of us in the ‘reality-based community’ say or believe about anything.”

- Eric Alterman , November 5, 2004.


Republicans are ignorant.

“The election results reflect the decision of the right wing to cultivate and exploit ignorance in the citizenry. I suppose the good news is that fifty-five million Americans have evaded the ignorance-inducing machine. But fifty-eight million have not. . . . The error that progressives have consistently committed over the years is to underestimate the vitality of ignorance in America. Listen to what the red-state citizens say about themselves, the songs they write, and the sermons they flock to. They know who they are — they are full of original sin and they have a taste for violence.”

- Jane Smiley , November 4, 2004.


Republicans are fascists.

“Americans did not vote for fascism — but the fascists now control all three branches of our government.”

- Bob Fertik , November 4, 2004.


Republicans are racist.

Republicans are supported by whites with prejudice against blacks.

- Jon Krosnick , Probably January 2006.


Republicans don’t have moral values.

“How can Republicans get to talk about moral values when they don’t have any?”

- Howard Dean


Republicans think women should be sacrificed.

“Human sacrifice is much in vogue right now. The Republican right thinks that people who get on its nerves, especially women, should be sent to the stake. . .”

- Mary McGrory , 1996.
