what is the sound of one quote clapping? 2003-03-18 - 11:03 a.m. What the Dixie Chicks should have said in their apology: "George W. Bush was born, bred, and educated in Connecticut, not Texas as we implied in our earlier statement. The Dixie Chicks regret the error." I admire folks like squirrelx who always seem to have a fistful of thought-provoking or witty quotes at their fingertips. I have a problem of being very much struck by certain quotes at certain times and then going back and thinking, huh? But it should be fun to put down a few quotes that I've liked lately and then I can come back months later and see which ones I still like. "There is a much cheaper, less complicated way to bring Saddam to his knees: Send the Bush economic team over there and let them run the country." Democratic presidential hopeful John Kerry, on March 13, 2003, as reported by outrage site bartcop.com "Of course, mindful of prying eyes, Laura and I are now careful to end the day by no longer vomiting green beer on the street or each other. After all, that's what the private residence bathrooms are for. " Our Fearless Leader, on March 17, 2003, as quoted in satire site whitehouse.org. FYI: This is the site that Dick Cheney wants restrained. "Martin Sheen has been arrested 70 times in his pursuit of peace and social justice. George W. Bush's three documented arrests: drunk driving, theft of a Christmas wreath & football hooliganism." "Top 12 reasons to support celebrities in opposition to war," March 2003, by the political humor/flash site toostupidtobepresident.com. "How did he recruit people...It was only models...and famous models...He wasn't interested in anyone else...He would use the fact that as a model all you do all day is stand around and do what other people tell you to do...He preyed on that." Glamorama, by Bret Easton Ellis, pg. 352 of First Vintage Contemporaries Edition, 2000, ellipses are the author's. "This is Fox News, your voice for evil." The Simpsons, March 2003, Krusty runs for office episode. "This was the year he rode the subway to the ends of the city, two hundred miles of track. He liked to stand at the front of the first car, hands flat against the glass. The train smashed through the dark. People stood on local platforms staring nowhere, a look they'd been practicing for years. He kind of wondered, speeding past, who they really were." Libra, Don DeLillo, opening lines. "The conventional means of attaining the castle are as follows: `The eagle dug its sharp claws into the tender flesh of the youth, but he bore the pain without a sound, and seized the bird's two feet with his hands. The creature in terror lifted him high up into the air and began to circle the castle. The youth held on bravely. He saw the glittering palace, which by the pale rays of the moon looked like a dim lamp, and he saw the windows and the balconies of the castle tower. Drawing a small knife from his belt, he cut off both the eagle's feet. The bird rose up in the air with a yelp, and the youth dropped lightly onto a broad balcony.'" "The Glass Mountain," by Donald Barthelme, citing The Yellow Fairy Book. "Nor are eagles plausible, not for a minute." Barthelme, ibid. "Maybe I should eat a banana nut muffin. That's a good muffin." Adaptation, Charles Kaufmann, 2002, on the writing process. Bonus: Who said it? I thought it was Terry Jones, of Monty Python fame, but I can't find the citation right now: "Someone please remind Mr. Bush that the Supreme Court appointed him President of the United States, not Supreme Leader of the United Nations." back - next All Rights Reserved, Copyright 2002-2017 by Elaine Radford
