Disregard the last post....I thought that quote was always a Quaylism, but upon looking on the internet it appears that any of these quotes are attributed to an abundance of people depending on the political slant of the webmaster. We may never know....

Scares me too Victoria. I can't claim a party anymore. My current voting scheme is just to vote against incumbents. The polls won't pass term limits so I try to limit their damage by voting them all out.

brooke shields and i have the same birthday. fun stuff. my favorite quotes tend to come from either the chappelle show or george w. bush verbal misfires. some examples:
bush:
"i know it's hard for you to put food on your family."
"i know that the human being and the fish can coexist peacefully."
"more and more of our imports are coming from overseas."
chappelle:
"a true hater hates the air."
"white people love wayne brady because he makes bryant gumble look like malcom x."
