Remember Joycelyn Elders? From an article when she was fired as Surgeon General:
she suggested that the country study whether to legalize drugs and attacked the Catholic Church as having “a love affair with the fetus.”
she told a group of gays and lesbians in June that they must help save the children from “the un-Christian religious right,”
She also famously said that we need “safer guns and safer bullets.” And that we should teach sex education to children, starting when they are six months old.
“If she had lived, Mary Jo Kopechne would be 62 years old. Through his tireless work as a legislator, Edward Kennedy would have brought comfort to her in her old age” - Charlie Pierce, Boston Globe Magazine in 2003.

A Redd Foxx classic.
Good quotes! :) I especially like the one where Guam tips over.<<
The Naval Officer testifying at the time this politician asked him if they had considered this as a probability to the expansion of the naval base deserves a medal for keeping a straight face.

Joe Biden is Obama’s insurance policy against impeachment.
I never understood that. Everyone with a brain knows Obama is a puppet. Biden would be a puppet. No difference.
” think what happened is that at some point (mid 90s by my best guess), there was some cosmic event or fracture in the space time continum that causes reality to split along two divergent paths. Somewhere out there in the multiverse, real Earth goes about it’s normal business with it’s normal issues.”
With the 2000 election, it was apparent that the US had crossed the rubicon and went off the rails for good.
The pic of the hanging chad buy should be the iconic photo of the generation. Everything wrong with America is included with that picture.

Not only stupid, but highly cynical in support of a drunk man who committed vehicular homicide.
1) My fear is that the whole island (of Guam) will become so overly populated that it will tip over and capsize. -- Democrat Congressman Hank Johnson
Quoth Algore:
“People think about geothermal energy – when they think about it at all – in terms of the hot water bubbling up in some places, but two kilometers or so down in most places there are these incredibly hot rocks, ’cause the interior of the earth is extremely hot, several million degrees, and the crust of the earth is hot...”
John Hawkins’ lists (a common format for his columns) normally have 5 to 10 items. He had to expand to 25 to accommodate this topic.
Talk about a wealth of material!
21) I do believe that it’s the first time in history that fire has ever melted steel. I do believe that it defies physics that World Trade Center tower 7 — building 7, which collapsed in on itself — it is impossible for a building to fall the way it fell without explosives being involved. World Trade Center 7. World Trade [Center] 1 and 2 got hit by planes — 7, miraculously, the first time in history, steel was melted by fire. It is physically impossible. -- Rosie O’Donnell talks Trutherism
Well Rosie, just how do you think steel is made, formed, alloyed, etc.? Ever hear of a cutting torch? Rosie, you really should keep your pie hole shut on topics you obviously know nothing about. Of course that would me she would have to stop talking about, well, most everything.
14) Civil rights laws were not passed to protect the rights of white men and do not apply to them. -- Mary Frances Berry, former Chairwoman, US Commission on Civil Rights
...and right there in a nutshell is the entire, blatant racism of the left. Whites are trash merely because they're white. However, "enlightened" liberals are so blind they can't even see this obvious racism.
9) Watching both the health care and climate/energy debates in Congress, it is hard not to draw the following conclusion: There is only one thing worse than one-party autocracy, and that is one-party democracy, which is what we have in America today. One-party autocracy certainly has its drawbacks. But when it is led by a reasonably enlightened group of people, as China is today, it can also have great advantages. -- Thomas Friedman
Speaking of "enlightened" - this shows the rampant and dangerously un-American and anti-American sentiment underpinning most of the modern day liberal group-think. They don't believe in freedom and liberty. They believe in fascism, in control by an elite few.
Thats the one. A clueless idiot following corrupt instructions intended to enthrone an insane liberal
IF Dan Quayle had said this the New York Times would still be talking about it.
#23 Drew Barrymore hilarious!
