Democratic Quotes - Page 9

• Republicans can't run their normal playbook on me that they try to run on Democratic candidates. They can't say I flip-flop because I don't. They can't say I'm weak on defense because I'm not. They can't say I'm weak on values because I'm not. They can't say I'm a big taxer and a big spender.

  Joe Lieberman

• Originally, one of the reasons I was drawn to photography, as opposed to painting or sculpture or installation, is that of all the arts it is the most democratic, in so far as it's instantly readable and accessible to our culture. Photography is how we move information back and forth.

• Easy money, sudden fortunes, increasingly powerful political machines and blatant corruption transformed much of the nation; and the Senate, as befits a democratic legislative body, accurately represented the nation.

• Democrats should run Mahmoud Ahmadinejad for president. He's more coherent than Dennis Kucinich, he dresses like their base, he's more macho than John Edwards, and he's willing to show up at a forum where he might get one hostile question - unlike the current Democratic candidates for president who won't debate on Fox News Channel. He's not married to an impeached president, and the name Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is surely no more frightening than B. Hussein Obama.

• When you can't do any housecleaning because everything that goes on is a damned secret, then we're on our way to something the Founding Fathers didn't have in mind. Secrecy and a free, democratic government don't mix.

• To pay attention to the actual core of the movement - that would be pretty hard. Can you concentrate for example on either the policy issues or the creation of functioning democratic communities of mutual support and say, well, that's what's lacking in our country that's why we don't have a functioning democracy - a community of real participation. That's really important. And that always gets smashed.

• States can be more or less democratic, and so can socialism. I think any ideal society that exists on a large scale, which is what we most likely have in store for us as a human race, will involve some aspects of socialism.

• With a chip on his shoulder larger than his margin of victory, Barack Obama is approaching his second term by replicating the mistake of his first. Then his overreaching involved health care - expanding the entitlement state at the expense of economic growth. Now he seeks another surge of statism, enlarging the portion of gross domestic product grasped by government and dispensed by politics. The occasion is the misnamed "fiscal cliff," the proper name for which is: the Democratic Party's agenda.

• No estoy poniendo excusas por las oportunidades perdidas de los israelíes, ni por la falta de generosidad, ni por la falta de empatía que creo que va unida a la sospecha. Así que, sí, los israelíes tienen que hacer más para demostrar realmente que comprenden el dolor de un pueblo oprimido y que quieren averiguar, dentro de los límites de la seguridad y de un Estado democrático judío, qué se puede conseguir.

• [Animar al mundo musulmán, y en particular al mundo árabe musulmán, que es el corazón de la amenaza terrorista global, a adoptar formas democráticas y a hacer brillar la luz de la libertad en su cultura de oscuridad medieval es una necesidad pragmática para la seguridad futura del mundo civilizado. Esta es la realidad que subyace al discurso del Presidente. Sólo las personas que lo niegan seriamente pueden ser ciegas a este hecho. Sólo los liberales.

• Liberals claim to love gays when it allows them to vent their spleen at Republicans. But disagree with liberals and their first response is to call you gay. Liberals are gays' biggest champions on issues most gays couldn't care less about, like gay marriage or taxpayer funding of photos of men with bullwhips up their derrieres. But who has done more to out, embarrass, and destroy the lives of gay men who prefer to keep their orientation private than Democrats? Who is more intolerant of gays in the Republican Party than gays in the Democratic Party?

• We can talk about republican or democratic approaches to the economy, but until you fix the student loan bubble - and that's where the real bubble is - and the tuition bubble, we don't have a chance. All this other stuff is shuffling deck-chairs on the Titanic.

• John Kerry se recupera satisfactoriamente de su operación de próstata. Pero los médicos le dijeron que pasarán varios meses antes de que pueda volver a ser sexualmente activo. Todos los demás candidatos demócratas le han apoyado mucho. Joe Lieberman llamó para desearle lo mejor. El reverendo Al Sharpton llamó para ofrecer sus oraciones. El ex presidente Bill Clinton llamó a la Sra. Kerry y le preguntó si se sentía sola.

• ...the Democratic Party and the Republican Party are beholden to industry. They always will be. And, the American people are fooled when they think that if you can just get McGovern instead of Humphrey, or if you can get a Democrat instead of a Republican, this will be the end of our problems.
