random quotes ... to amuse, inspire, enrage:
  It was this very atheistic Declaration [of Independence] which had inspired the "higher law" doctrine of the radical antislavery men. If the mischievous abolitionists had only followed the Bible instead of the godless Declaration, they would have been bound to acknowledge that human bondage was divinely ordained. The mission of southerners was therefore clear; they must defend the word of God against abolitionist infidels.

kerry wish lists

Things I wish Kerry would say to Bush:

  • Mr. Bush has no shame and distorts comments and the record shamelessly. [Cite to any one or two of a thousand particular examples — the healthcare plans, the budget deficit, the $87 billion, the "global test" ....]
  • On the $87 billion appropriation, what Mr. Bush fails to mention is that he threatened to veto it before he signed it.
  • Mr. Bush opposes a woman’s right to choose.
  • Mr. Bush misled this country into war. [my version: you lie, you lie, you lie ... ad infinitum, ad nauseum]
  • Mr. Bush lied to Congress about the weapons of mass destruction, misleading the members of Congress, who trusted him and wanted to support the president and his intelligence. His administration cooked the intelligence.
