Boasting of his party's resolve in the face of GOP attempts to stop their filibuster, Kennedy told the Senate, "What has not ended is the resolution and the determination of the members of the United States Senate to continue to resist any Neanderthal that is nominated by this president of the United States for any court, federal court in the United States." President Bush's nominations included Miguel Estrada (who is Hispanic) and African-American Judge Janice Rogers Brown.

"I'm sick and tired of people who say that if you debate and disagree with this administration, somehow you're not patriotic. We need to stand up and say we're Americans, and we have the right to debate and disagree with any administration." Hillary Clinton.

"I wonder if it's possible to be a Republican and a Christian at the same time." Hillary Clinton, C-SPAN broadcast (21 June 2004).

"He ran a gas station down in St. Louis... No, Mahatma Gandhi was a great leader of the 20th century." - Hillary Clinton

"you would most certainly believe this must have been done by Nazis, Soviets in their gulags, or some mad regime -- Pol Pot or others" Dick Durban

"They told the stories at times they had personally raped, cut off ears, cut off heads, tape wires from portable telephones to human genitals and turned up the power, cut off limbs, blown up bodies, randomly shot at civilians, razed villages in fashion reminiscent of Genghis Khan, shot cattle and dogs for fun, poisoned food stocks, and generally ravaged the country side of South Vietnam" - John Kerry

Democrats in a race for a state House seat in District 82, are circulating a flyer that shows a retarded child with President Bush’s face running in a track race. The headline says: "Voting for Bush Is Like Running In The Special Olympics: Even If You Win, You’re Still Retarded." The flyer is being distributed by Democrat Craig Fitzhugh. His opponent, Dave Dahl has issued a call to Fitzhugh to stop distributing the flyer.

"He betrayed this country!" Gore shouted into the microphone. "He played on our fears! He took America on an ill-conceived foreign adventure dangerous to our troops, an adventure preordained and planned before 9/11 ever took place!" Al Gore 9 Feb 2004

Tom Lantos, a California Democrat, who lashed out at independent counsel Don Smaltz (the one prosecuting former agriculture secretary Mike Espy). When Smaltz didn't mention at a committee hearing that he is registered Republican, Lantos hissed: ``You remind me of . . . Kurt Waldheim, who also had a lapse in memory. He conveniently forgot several years when he was a Nazi.''

Democrat Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi in a recent interview said, "I believe that the president's leadership and the actions taken in Iraq demonstrate an incompetence in terms of knowledge, judgment, and experience. Bush is an incompetent leader. In fact, he’s not a leader. He’s a person who has no judgment, no experience and no knowledge of the subjects that he has to decide upon. Not to get personal about it, but the president's capacity to lead has never been there. In order to lead, you have to have judgment. In order to have judgment, you have to have knowledge and experience. He has none."

Please keep your posts limited to politicians themselves, no "intellectual insight" provided by pundits such as Michael Moore, Spicoli (Sean Penn), or Ann Coulter. :88) :doh: :down:

Yours, Mike

Sad. There is a pretty big divide between the two parties that shouldn't be there. Hillary and Mr. Ted Kennedy seem to be the ones maintaining it the most.

Yeah! If you're accused of hate-mongering, the only dignified way to respond is..........in kind.

I have a glorious mental image of two goats on separate mountaintops, roaring at each other.

We're all goats, get used to it.

:yep:

Partisan politics are partisan politics. Clearly both sides will fail to recognize arguments of the other, not because of some greater reason but because of plain old partisanship.

This is sort of like the "reasonable religion" thread, only with Bush and Clinton. That one was all about goats too :roll:

Funny; that's exactly how I see political discussion here on GT.
