Liberals:

Barack Obama: "No wonder that faith in our institutions has never been lower, particularly when good news doesn't get the same kind of ratings as bad news anymore. Every day you receive a steady stream of sensationalism and scandal and stories with a message that suggest change isn't possible; that you can't make a difference; that you won't be able to close that gap between life as it is and life as you want it to be." Yes, because I recall, as a youth, how often good news was reported on.

Barack Obama tweet: “See how President Obama fares when quizzed on his superhero knowledge: OFA.BO/D42u1X”

Dem Dennis Kucinich "[Iran is] not threatening us! We're threatening them!"

Liberals on the economy:

President Obama: "It was a house of cards and it collapsed in the most destructive, worst crisis that we've seen since the Great Depression. And sometimes people forget the magnitude of it...Sometimes I forget."

President Barack Obama: "economic growth can't just be for the lucky few at the top, it's got to be broad-based, for everybody. I've spoken before about relatives I have in Kenya, who live in villages where hunger is sometimes a reality - despite the fact that African farmers can be some of the hardest-working people on Earth." The Obama’s are millionaires and they have apparently done nothing about Obama’s family in Kenya.

Vice President Joe Biden, in anger: "Well I get tired of being called `middle class Joe' like that's somehow I'm just good ole Joe and I don't dream."

President Obama, who once called Solyndra a good bet: “For the past three and a half years, we've been fighting our way back from an historic economic crisis - one caused by breathtaking irresponsibility on the part of some on Wall Street who treated our financial system like a casino.”

Joe Biden, screaming: "We're not out there saying that we can go out there and rescue the economy with no pain? We inherited a god-awful situation! The worst recession in the history of America short of a depression. No one is sugar-coating this."

Climate Change:

Forecast the Facts, concerning the fact that fewer than 50% of meteorologists believe in man-made global warming: “...we're tracking meteorologists' attitudes toward climate change across the country.” They are also going after the sponsors of an organization which does not believe in man-made global warming.

John Romm, of ThinkProgress, a progressive group closely associated with President Obama, on the idea of PBS giving any time to those who deny man-made global warming: “Seriously PBS? Would you give air time to someone who says the Earth is flat or cigarettes don't cause cancer and simply follow those falsehoods by ‘These are views challenged by scientific evidence.’ Would PBS go so far as to give air time to an even more extreme kind of disinformer, a Holocaust denier? Where do they draw the line?”

The Liberal agenda:

Vice President Joe Biden on gay marriage: "We didn't make it an issue, we were asked a question; I was asked how I feel about it, and I said I feel comfortable."

Joe Biden On the campaign trail:

Joe Biden, yelling and searching for a coherent thought: "I resent when they talk about families like mine that I grew up in. I resent the fact that they think we're talking about envy: it's job envy, it's wealthy envy; that we don't dream," an impassioned Biden told a crowd of manufacturing workers. My mother believed and my father believed that if I wanted to be president of the United States, that I could be, I could be vice president! My mother and father believed that if my brother or sister wanted to be a millionaire, they could be a millionaire! My mother and father dreamed as much as any rich guy dreams! They don't get us! They don't get who we are!"

Joe Biden, when asked about incarcerated felon getting about 40% of the vote in West Virginia against Barack Obama: "Look, I come from a household where whenever there's a recession, somebody around my grand-pop or my dad's table lost a job. A brother, a sister a friend, a neighbor. When you're out of work, man, it's a depression. And a lot of people are still hurting because of this god-awful recession we inherited that cost 8.4 million jobs before we could really get going. And so I don't blame people, they're frustrated, they're angry."

Joe Biden (not yelling): "How about some ice cream?"

The War on Women continues...

Planned Parenthood President Cecile Richards: “Frankly, the Republican party leadership who seems to want to take away the right [of women to make decisions]...the fact that we are actually having a fight in this country about whether women should have access to birth control is extraordinary...Romney...literally wants to take women back to the 1950s." Are there any women who actually believe that these are Romney’s positions?

The Compliant Obama Press Corps:

Newsweek columnist Michelle Goldberg of Ann Romney's Mothers' Day holiday column: "In a lot ways, the column was totally anodyne, right? She's, you know, yes, motherhood is beautiful. I found that phrase, `the crown of motherhood' really kind of creepy. Not just because of it's somewhat - you know, it's kind of really authoritarian societies that give out like a Cross of Motherhood. They give out awards for big families. You know, Stalin did it, Hitler did it."

New York Times economic columnist and Nobel Laureate Paul Krugman of Republican leaders, who have called for spending cuts to accompany the debt ceiling increase: "Sometimes you do wonder if these guys are moles -Manchurian Candidates - for I don't know who...their real job [seems to be]...to bring down America, because they really are doing the best they can."

The New York Times webpage: “Footage of BO looking slick and cocky.”

From the White House Pool Report, of Obama in Hollywood: "[George] Clooney listened intently to Potus throughout, his hands folded as if in prayer and his chin resting on them."
