“The Democrats thought they\u2019d trick me into spending this whole show talking about the Fairness Doctrine, not the immigration bill.”<\/p>\n

“On the golf course yesterday there was this bird just harassing this turtle like you wouldn\u2019t believe. My caddy said, ‘The bird\u2019s just waiting to get the turtle\u2019s eggs.\u2019 And I said, ‘Well, this isn\u2019t going to happen when I\u2019m out here.\u2019 So I went over and picked up this turtle and took it back to the creek.”<\/p>\n

“If it weren\u2019t for France, we would not have won the Revolutionary War –and ever since then they\u2019ve been on a downward spin. That\u2019s a long time ago, folks! I mean, the French were reliable then!”<\/p>\n

“Folks, I don\u2019t believe in boycotts. I never have believed in boycotts. I think it\u2019s cheap, it\u2019s largely theatrical, and as the Turtles said in 1965, ‘It ain\u2019t me, babe.'”<\/p>\n

“On my first day in Sacramento, I wore a sweater with no shirt underneath it. The program director called me: ‘Unacceptable attire, sir. We wear natural fibers at KFBK.'”<\/p>\n

“I\u2019m not going to go sit in the corner and start crying, ‘Waaa! Why won\u2019t they leave me alone? Waaa!\u2019 Bring it on, guys. You\u2019ve already tried everything you can think of to take me out, and we\u2019re bigger and better than ever.”<\/p>\n

“Is this supposed to be an impressive crowd size for Obama– 1,500 people? If I said I was going somewhere and only 1,500 people showed, we\u2019d cancel it. Yes, we would, Dawn.”<\/p>\n

“You have to hear these two sound bites — they\u2019re from The Oprah. And I want you to know what a professional and career risk I am taking by playing these bites. The Oprah is not to be criticized.”<\/p>\n

“I\u2019m sure these three US soldiers — if they are, in fact, being held by Al-Qaeda types — are getting the kind of treatment that is as every bit as wonderful as that at Club Gitmo. New Bibles, three square meals a day, toilets that face the right direction, access to the Rosie O\u2019Donnell show — whatever it is they want!”<\/p>\n

“I will be out tomorrow — back on Wednesday — and I will miss you. I want you to know: as badly as you will miss me, I\u2019ll miss you almost as much, too.”<\/p>\n
