    Wow. Amazing how using a list of incorrectly attributed Dan Quayle quotes (some of which aren't even accurate) can be used to cast dispersions on the man who might be the next President of the US.

    I have to admit Smeg, I've seen those quotes attributed to Quayle and probably every other politician in the U.S.

    I light to imagine that they're all quotes by Dan Quayle. That way, I can comfort myself that noone that stupid will ever be president.

    Do you get the feeling though, that Bush would've messed up on the ballot?

    The odd thing about Qualye is that I truly think he was going to win the Republican nomination had he had enough money. He was in living in his own dream world.

    As far as the quotes go, there are so many good quotes all candidates. My fave of all time is : "It all depends on what is is." Gotta love that Democratic doublespeak.

    (Bare with me, I may not post again for awhile because I'm about to agree with DUDE! [​IMG] )

    That's probably my favorite as well.

    Lol..Someone sent me the same list but they were attributed to Gore.

    Here's my favorite real Quote by Gore.
    On July 16, 2000 during a "Meet the Press" interview, Gore was asked if he would be in favor of postponing the execution of a pregnant woman. His hesitant response was "I'd have to think about it".

    I've posted this in a thread before, but don't feel like tracking it down. Here is a great list of stupid quotes from Bush that can't be attributed to Dan Quayle.

    The Complete Bushisms

    You'll notice the list is a lot longer than the one you provided. [​IMG]

    I wonder why, when there is so many silly things that Bush has actually said, that someone would bother sending around the list of Quayle quotes attributed to Bush.

    It's also interesting that the list, which pokes fun at statements by Bush, incorrectly refers to him as "Jr." in every statement.

    Stay Cool...
