Liberals:

Barack Obama: "We're the country that built the Intercontinental Railroad."

President Obama to a Black audience: "Take off your bedroom slippers. Put on your marching shoes. Shake it off. Stop complainin'. Stop grumblin'. Stop cryin'. We are going to press on. We have work to do."

Obama on Black unemployment being nearly double the national average at 16.7 percent: "It gets folks discouraged. I know. I listen to some of y'all,”

President Barack Obama: "The Republicans in Congress call this class warfare. Well you know what? If asking a billionaire to pay the same tax rate as plumber or teacher makes me a warrior for the middle class, I'll wear that charge as a badge of honor. Because the only class warfare I've seen is the battle that's been waged against the middle class in this country for a decade."

President Obama: "I will not support any plan that puts all the burden for closing our deficit on ordinary Americans. And I will veto any bill that changes benefits for those who rely on Medicare but does not raise serious revenues by asking the wealthiest Americans and biggest corporations to pay their fair share. We are not going to have a one-sided deal that hurts the folks who are most vulnerable."

Obama on his taxing philosophy: "This is not class warfare. It's math."

White House press secretary Jay Carney, off-camera, about the TEA party: "The tail is wagging the dog here. 30 or so members of the tea party are dictating the way the House behaves and handles its responsibilities for 300 million Americans."

Michael Moore: "The smart rich know they can only build the gate so high. And, and, sooner or later history proves that people when they've had enough aren't going to take it anymore. And much better to deal with it nonviolently now, through the political system, than what could possibly happen in the future, which nobody wants to see."

Senate candidate Elizabeth Warren: "You [rich people] were safe in your factory because of police forces and fire forces that the rest of us paid for... You didn't have to worry that marauding bands would come and seize everything at your factory."

Also known as, "Change we can believe in."

Michael Moore on longer waits for medical care where there is socialized medicine: "The reason why you have to wait sometimes in those countries is they let everybody in the line. We make 50 million people out of the line so the line is shorter, so sometimes you have to wait as long. If you are a patriotic American, you want every American to be covered the same as you. No, not `I'm going to get ahead because I have health insurance and they don't.' "

Democratic National Committee Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz: "President Obama has appealed to the Congressional Black Caucus and the attendees last night to close ranks, stand behind him, press on to make sure that we can continue to push for things like passage of the American Jobs Act. The crowd at the Congressional Black Caucus Annual Gala understands that the president has brought us from the brink of disaster where Republicans, under George W. Bush, had brought us to the precipice of economic disaster."

The Compliant Obama Press Corps:

ABC’s Good Morning America:

John Hendren: “Perry's implosion is just the latest sign of chaos in the Republican presidential field. A disarray so complete that New Jersey Governor Chris Christie is now being heavily pressured to run . . . Christie supporters are arguing that the job may be big but the declared candidates are too small.”

Christiane Amanpour: “Really, what's obviously happening is that people are looking at the current crop [extended less-than-flattering footage begins to roll of Christie walking across an airport tarmac] and there still are people who are dissatisfied. And there are others who are saying it's not too late for others to get in. And even on this program not so long ago we had panelists saying that they were hearing that Chris Christie is being heavily implored to jump in.”

MSNBC’s Larry O'Donnell: “Only in the Twilight Zone of this Republican presidential politics, 2011-style, could we see a man [Rick Perry] be cheered for proudly presiding over the execution of 234 people and then see that same man booed by the same crowd, booed because that champion of death by execution called his worshippers heartless [for opposing his support of giving in-state tuition to illegal aliens]. Campaigns for presidential nominations are sometimes called fights for the soul of the Republican party, fights for the soul of the Democratic party. No one has used that phrase this time around for two reasons. First, because no candidate fits perfectly into the current shape of Republican orthodoxy. And secondly, the Republican party of the 21st century, if we are to judge by the debate audiences, has obviously lost its soul . . . This Twilight Zone: how can this happen? Here's their favorite killer, state-sanctioned killer up there. They boo him after he calls them heartless.”

DemocRATS will continue to be elected as long as 52% of the voters are not required to pay their “fair share” to help finance our big, nanny state government.
