[Lifted from Bill in Portland Maine of Crooks & Liars, Cheers and Jeers -- as was the previous post, the PuppyCam.] Some quotes:
"A hypocrite is the kind of politician who would cut down a
redwood tree, then mount the stump and make a speech for conservation. "
"I have been thinking that I would make a proposition to my
Republican friends... that if they will stop telling lies about the
Democrats, we will stop telling the truth about them."
And I love this:
We travel together, passengers on a little space ship,
dependent on its vulnerable reserves of air and soil; all committed for
our safety to its security and peace; preserved from annihilation only
by the care, the work and, I will say, the love we give our fragile
craft. We cannot maintain it half fortunate, half miserable, half
confident, half despairing, half slave to the ancient enemies of man,
half free in a liberation of resources undreamed of until this day. No
craft, no crew can travel with such vast contradictions. On their
resolution depends the survival of us all.
