    Oh goody... a quote game... I'll play... Let's see, I guess the topic is civility...

    "I want you just to let a wave of intolerance wash over you. I want you to let a wave of hatred wash over you. Yes, hate is good...We have a Biblical duty, we are called by God to conquer this country. We don't want equal time. We don't want pluralism."

    --Randall Terry, founder of anti-abortion group, Operation Rescue

    "Many of those people involved with Adolph Hitler were Satanists, many of them were homosexuals--the two things seem to go together."

    --Pat Robertson

    "What I'm hearing which is sort of scary is that they all want to stay in Texas. Everybody is so overwhelmed by the hospitality. And so many of the people in the arena here, you know, were underprivileged anyway so this (chuckle) – this is working very well for them."

    --Former First Lady Barbara Bush

    "Men in the pro-choice movement are either women trapped in men's bodies... or younger guys who are like camp followers looking for easy sex."

    --Rep. Bob Dornan

    "The NEA (National Education Association) is a terrorist organization."

    Education Secretary Rod Paige

    "There are so many women on the floor of Congress, it looks like a mall."


    --Rep. Henry Hyde

    "Emotional appeals about working families trying to get by on $4.25 an hour [the minimum wage in 1996] are hard to resist. Fortunately, such families do not exist."


    --Tom Delay

    "The causes of youth violence are working parents who put their kids into daycare, the teaching of evolution in the schools, and working mothers who take birth control pills."


    --Tom Delay

    "We should invade their countries, kill their leaders and convert them to Christianity. We weren't punctilious about locating and punishing only Hitler and his top officers. We carpet-bombed German cities; we killed civilians. That's war. And this is war. "

    --Ann Coulter

    "Whether they are defending the Soviet Union or bleating for Saddam Hussein, liberals are always against America. They are either traitors or idiots, and on the matter of America's self-preservation, the difference is irrelevant."

    --Ann Coulter

    "While the form of treachery varies slightly from case to case, liberals always manage to take the position that most undermines American security."

    --Ann Coulter

    “When a gay person turns his back on you, it is anything but an insult; it's an invitation”

    --Rush

    “The NAACP should have riot rehearsals”

    --Rush

    “Take that bone out of your nose and call me back”


    --Rush

    “If we are going to start rewarding no skills and stupid people - I'm serious, let the unskilled jobs, let the kinds of jobs that take absolutely no knowledge whatsoever to do - let stupid and unskilled Mexicans do that work”


    --Rush

    Oh, wait. I guess you win Sir Gwayne. Here I am quoting all these famous Republicans who appear on TV and Radio and make laws and such and your guy is a no name local official. Oh well. I'll try and do better next time.

    he apologized, sincerely, w/o reservation or qualification- one might almost say abjectly. it was nice to see- nothing else to see here, so let's move along.

    It goes to their mindest, no? I mean wanting to kill a sitting POTUS is not very funny to me. Then again neither was Alec Baldwin wanting to stone Henry Hyde.
