Anyone else having this issue?

Fun Conservative thoughts. Some of these are taken from other sources and some are new. enjoy. 1. "Its ok if you disagree with me, I cant force you to be right" 2. "dont hit kids. no seriously, they have guns now" 3. "P.E.T.A. - people eating tasty animals" 4. "Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms should be a convenience store, not a government agency" 5. "never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups" (next to a picture of capital hill) 6. "Dont steal, the Government hates competition" 7. "If you can read, thank a teacher. If you can read in...

<p>“Obama insults Sarkozy,” blared headline on French websites, taking umbrage at Mr. Obama’s wayward remark at the G-20 summit about the physical appearance of French President Nicolas Sarkozy.</p> <p>Mr. Obama thought he was making a joke about Mr. Sarkozy, host of the summit, when he congratulated him and wife Carla on the birth of their daughter. Instead, Mr. Obama caused a minor international incident.</p>

Reading through one particular thread gave me the idea for this one.

We all know how a single sentence or phrase can capture the minds of the audience witnessing a debate. Things like Reagan saying "There you go again." Well I am assuming the McCain/Palin camp has people monitoring this site. Lets come up with a few good ones. Who knows, we might help make history. My contributions: Should Biden play up his vast experience, Palin should say. Senator, you have been in the Senate for ages. You have not changed anything. Your speeches are not about change, they are about partisan politics and you have had your snout in the Congressional...

Just to get the ball rolling, may I suggest: Mr. McCain says he was a foot soldier during the Reagan Revolution. Given his record to date I've got to ask... "ON WHOSE SIDE?!" Yes, John McCain was a foot soldier in the Reagan Revolution...and all he got was a lousy t-shirt! Senator McCain was indeed a foot soldier in the Reagan Revolution...That would be FRED Reagan...his taxidermist. Mr. McCain is a very intense kinda guy. I can just see him debating Hillary. He could just stare at her until she cries! Mr. McCain continues to insist that I was for...

  Action Heroes - One Liners The 1980s were the golden age of the one-liner, with the films of Arnold Schwarzenegger, Sylvester Stallone, Chuck Norris, and Clint Eastwood, and the ascension of such screenwriters as Steven E. de Souza and Shane Black, who penned many of the decade's high-concept action and buddy movies (Die Hard, Commando, and Lethal Weapon chief among them). Yet, like many action film conventions, the one-liner has roots in other genres. In the landmark Western The Searchers (1956), John Wayne growled, "That'll be the day," prompting Buddy Holly to immortalize the catchphrase in a hit single...

Bill Clinton says Hillary gaining military support BY MELISSA NELSON ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER DESTIN, Fla. -- Former President Bill Clinton says his wife has strong support among military voters and that the Democratic presidential candidate is up to the task of rebuilding the nation's military after years of war in Iraq and Afghanistan. "I think she will do better than you think (with military voters) because she has an enormous amount of allies around the country in the military," Clinton told The Associated Press on Monday night following a private, $2,300-a-plate fundraiser for Hillary Rodham Clinton in the Florida Panhandle....

One of the more pleasing by-products of the world of sports is the great quote -- -- is Stengel's poetic, "I had many years that I was not so successful as a ballplayer, as it is a game of skill." I also love journeyman pitcher Frank Sullivan's brutally frank assessment, "I'm in the twilight of a mediocre career." • Pitcher Dizzy Dean upon his induction to the Hall of Fame: "I was blessed with a strong arm and a weak mind." • Stengel on his Amazin' Mets: "They've shown me ways to lose I never knew existed." • Stengel on...

Ok.. FReepers are unique people, and I'm sure everybody has one of those "favorite one-liner" trueisms regarding politics, conservatism, or life in general. How about listing a few for posterity...Here's a start: It is much more important to be concerned about what was said about what got done, than to worry about what got done about what was said.

Hours before Rodney Dangerfield died Tuesday, I tried to collect a debt from a buddy, e-mailing him my address. He facetiously thanked me for adding him to my Christmas card list, prompting me to reply, without thinking, "Rocco, Moose, help the judge find his checkbook." Nothing else needed saying. Young readers and women who still believe Doritos and Budweiser aren't a square meal are scratching their heads right now. But my friend, a middle school classmate of mine when "Caddyshack" opened, understood every syllable. What I said, in Quotable Guy-Movie Talk, was that yes, my friend Joe will pay me....

Bush has said (paraphrased) that the Iraq War is a "catastrophic success". 1-liner: This means that Bush has been successful at creating a catastrophe. It was reported on ABC's This Week show this morning that 70% of the republicans want a dramatic change in the manner in which Bush manages the Administration. 1-liner: How can republicans vote for a candidate who will 'stay the course' and expect a dramatic change? Add your one-liner.
