“DISSENT IS THE HIGHEST FORM OF PATRIOTI… No, wait, that bumper sticker expired January 20th. Under the stimulus bill, there’s a new $1.3 trillion bills-for-bumpers program whereby, if you peel off old slogans now recognized as environmentally harmful (‘QUESTION AUTHORITY’), you can trade them in for a new ‘CELEBRATE CONFORMITY’ sticker, complete with a holographic image of President Obama that never takes his eyes off you.” –columnist Mark Steyn
“If the Republicans in Washington are smart, and I’m not saying they are, they’d do well to get out of Nancy Pelosi’s way. She may be just about the best politician the GOP has these days. Every time Madam Speaker goes on camera, you can almost hear Democrats’ approval ratings drop.” –Arkansas Democrat-Gazette editor Paul Greenberg
“Sports Medicine Institute said Friday cheerleading is the most dangerous sport in America. You can break your neck. CBS and NBC and ABC reporters were covering President Obama Wednesday when the NBC News reporter fell off the top of the triangle.” –comedian Argus Hamilton
Note — sarcastic humor:
“In any event, it’s true that people who believe in health care choices and free markets are zombies. For one thing, they are entirely too well-dressed to contemplate serious issues independently — and thank you, Sen. Barbara Boxer of California, for pointing that out. A man without Birkenstocks, after all, is a man without a soul. Organizing and protesting, as any sensible and compassionate citizen already understands, is exclusively the bailiwick of ideologically diverse and freethinking groups, such as unions. And really, the most galling aspect of this entire spurious uprising is the rumor that protestors are actually organized. Can you imagine?” –columnist David Harsanyi
