“One of our singular achievements here is that we have made the word ‘liberal\u2019 a dirty word.”<\/p>\n

“True conservatism cannot tolerate dangerously stupid ideas, whereas liberalism seems to be able to tolerate everything — from terrorism to pushing environmental wacko propaganda on our kids.”<\/p>\n

“John Lewis said it was harder to leave the Clintons than it was to march across the bridge in Selma. I think he may know something that we don\u2019t.”<\/p>\n

“Obama doesn\u2019t like his middle name being used, so we can\u2019t use it? What are we going to call him? Barack Fitzgerald Obama? Barack Earl Obama? Give him some other middle name, then!”<\/p>\n

“No employer, no insurance company, no politician or government bureaucrat knows better than you about your family\u2019s health needs. You should have the right to purchase health care and health insurance as you see fit. There: In less than 30 seconds, I\u2019ve just explained the concept of fixing health care.”<\/p>\n

“The accumulation of wealth is a right. That is, you have a right to freely earn an income and dispose of it as you wish. You know the drill: life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.”<\/p>\n

“There\u2019s a sanctimony and an arrogance that attaches to liberals. It\u2019s to the point where they don\u2019t have to explain what they believe, they just are — and anybody who\u2019s not what they are is a racist, a sexist, a bigot, a homophobe, or a kook.”<\/p>\n

“Governor Sarah Palin\u2019s a babe. By the way, I\u2019m not diminishing any of her accomplishments by pointing out that she\u2019s a babe; the babe aspect is just icing on the cake.”<\/p>\n

“When Barack Obama talks about Iraq, it\u2019s dangerously incompetent and ignorant. I don\u2019t know whether it\u2019s born of lack of intelligence or just lack of experience, but, frankly, I don\u2019t care. It\u2019s ignorant.”<\/p>\n

“I know, Brian! I\u2019m just listening to the tune here! I like Tone-Loc!”<\/p>\n
