Inspirational political quotes... which one doesn't fit with the others?
Edited on Mon Jul-28-08 02:13 PM by Wetzelbill
"Ideas are great arrows, but there has to be a bow. And politics is the bow of idealism."- Bill Moyers


"When will our consciences grow so tender that we will act to prevent human misery rather than avenge it?" - Eleanor Roosevelt



"Some men see things as they are and say, "Why?" I dream of things that never were and say, "Why not?"" -Bobby Kennedy



"If a free society cannot help the many who are poor, it cannot save the few who are rich." -John F. Kennedy



"The people of this country, not special interest big money, should be the source of all political power."-Paul Wellstone



"At least I don't layer on the makeup like a fucking trollop, you cunt" - John McCain

3. That's just not fair. You're cherry picking.
President Kennedy had far better quotes than that one.

12. He'd be great for comedy
Bush is a hard act to follow though. I think I'd prefer somebody who could actually govern this time around. We went with the world's biggest joke for 8 years now, we might have to get back to being the most inspirational again, lol.

9. I've always been partial to this one:
"The truth of that matter is, if you listen carefully, Saddam would still be in power if he were the President of the United States, and the world would be a lot better off."
George W. Bush, 2nd presidential debate, St. Louis, Missouri, 10/8/04.

I shit you not.

That's great. I'd like to say I'm surprised he said that, but nope. He was born with a golden foot in his mouth. :)
