Sunday Reflections: Recent Quotes

Occasionally, there are just too many good quotes to let them pass by without sharing or without comment. Here are a few I've reflected on more recently:

Sean Hannity: And tonight’s “Meltdown” is brought to you by the D.C. snow storm, you know, the storm that dumped about two feet of snow on the Washington area over the weekend causing thousands of power outages and keeping many people home from work today. And it’s the most severe winter storm in years, which would seem to contradict Al Gore’s hysterical global warming theories. [...]  Comment: It snows in February. Plus, despite how we choose to live and the beliefs of many,  it isn't all about us. The US is not the entire planet.

Sarah Palin: We need a Commander in Chief, not a Professor of Law standing at the lectern. Who better to interpret the constitution than someone with a background in constitutional law?

Bill Maher: I'll show you Barack Obama's birth certificate when you show me Sarah Palin's high school diploma.  Bada-bing-bam-boom.

Sarah Palin: Tax Cuts. Seen written in the palm of her hand. The GOP shout tax cuts like old concert-goers shout Free Bird.

Sarah Palin: So... how's that hopey-changey thing working for ya'? Get T-shirts with slogan practically everywhere on the Web. Maybe there is a job at CafePress for Ms. Palin. She is so cutesy-wootsy.

President Barack Obama - Surely you can question my policies without questioning my faith... or my citizenship. Don't call them Surely.

Email received this week: Grandpa says: Everyone Relax. When was the last time you saw a black guy keep a job for four years?  I don't know whether to alert this person that she might have a computer virus randomly sending emails from her address book or refer her to a diversity dialogue training session. I don't know her well enough to do either. I just know I feel a little sick.

Andy Borowitz headline (satire): Teabaggers finally Google 'teabag'. (giggle)
