Quotable quotes for 200 Alex
What a week so far!!!!

“I said it. I meant it. I stand behind it. Equal justice under the law for all regardless of who they are and how they were born is fundamental to our American spirit and our American freedoms. Any person or group that argues that the law should not apply equally to all Americans is, frankly, un-American.”

“The Republican Party has been hijacked by religious fanatics, who are out of touch with mainstream America. Think of the recent comments by Pat Robertson – a religious fanatic by any measure – that the United States should assassinate a democratically elected leader in Venezuela, and that Ariel Sharon’s stroke was divine punishment because Sharon wished to trade land for peace.”

“Since the Republican Party has been utterly unable to stand for something positive, they have created an atmosphere of fear and intimidation, and have pandered to religious fanatics not to vote for something they believe in, but to vote against their fellow Americans with whom they disagree. Those among us who would use religion and politics to divide rather than unite Americans should be ashamed.”

PAUL HACKET

************************

"When you look at the way the House of Representatives has been run, it has been run like a plantation, and you know what I'm talking about. It has been run in a way so that nobody with a contrary view has had a chance to present legislation, to make an argument, to be heard."

HILLARY CLINTON

***********************

“How do you sit there for three days in Crawford, Texas and act like you don’t see a hurricane in NOLA that is on every channel but you saw weapons of mass destruction in Iraq that didn’t exist."

REV. AL SHARPTON

************************

...Having Republicans rewrite House rules governing lobbying was "like asking John Gotti to do what he can to clean up organized crime."

1. I love Al Sharpton
It's a shame that he doesn't seem to have the ability to win elected office. I really like a lot of things that he has to say. He also seems like he is a nice person too.
