[classical_hero]

Settle down, Beavis, it's time for deine medicine.

It's not a stupid quote just because you don't like the medicine being given to your country.

Not seeing communist. But I'm sure it came up at some point, considering all the other insanity she's spewing. Clearly she can't use the phrase 'I'm not an idiot, I just played one on TV.'

Wait....did she in all seriosuness claim that Muslims support same sex marriage and abortion...

 

[Arakhor]

What kind of poll was The Guardian allegedly conducting to get such a bizarre statistic?

(Side-note: People, these papers do not have city names in them. Stop sticking them in to make yourselves feel better!)

 

[Cutlass]

Wait....did she in all seriosuness claim that Muslims support same sex marriage and abortion...

She's a moron

It's not a stupid quote just because you don't like the medicine being given to your country.

How would you know it's that?

 

[Gori the Grey]

Wait....did she in all seriosuness claim that Muslims support same sex marriage and abortion...

I actually don't think she did.

I think she's just revealing that she is syllogistically challenged: I don't like people who support same sex marriage and abortion. Obama supports same sex marriage and abortion. So he's the kind of person I don't like. I also don't like Muslims. Therefore, Obama is a Muslim.

She's a moron.

Just because someone says moronic things doesn't mean they are morons. Look at me.

No. Wait. That doesn't work.

Mostly cuz you aren't a moron?

"President Obama didn't live through September 11 -- I did."

Rudy Giuliani

i'll give rudy the pass here. i definitely think he meant 'live through' as 'be in the center of it'

 

[Arakhor]

It's also pointless pandering. 293 million Americans didn't "live through" 11th September either, so why single out the President?

 

[MagisterCultuum]

Obama and those 293 million Americans were also not responsible for moving New York City's emergency command center into the World Trade Center after it was bombed in 1993 and was known to be a major terrorist target. Being at ground zero, they had to evacuate their own office and could not help coordinate others as well as if they had stayed at their old location. Giuliani did this, as so shares some responsibility for the death toll being as high as it was. Being near the disaster in no way made Rudy a good leader.

 

[Borachio]

Mostly cuz you aren't a moron?

No. Quite the reverse.

I thought I'd expressed myself clearly enough and unambiguously. But if I hadn't that only goes to prove my point.

 

[madviking]

It's also pointless pandering.

it's politics

 

[Arakhor]

I suppose it is one criticism of Barack Obama which is (more or less) true.

 

[Traitorfish]

 

[SS-18 ICBM]

The last two need a little bit more context.

 

[ParkCungHee]

The first one needs a lot more context. Notice that "beautiful" is the only part in quotations.

 

[jackelgull]

Here's the full quote from Huffington Post

"Obviously rape is awful," West Virginia Del. Brian Kurcaba (R) said during a committee hearing on a new abortion restriction, according to David Gutman, a Charleston Gazette reporter. "What is beautiful is the child that could come from this."

 

[gay_Aleks]

Ahh, the magic of out of context quotes...

Of course, a child out of rape will be born in an already broken family. Miracle of life!

 

[MagisterCultuum]

Those who claim to be pro-life yet make exceptions for rape victims are the ones who really want to punish women for sexual promiscuity. Those who make no exceptions for rape might genuinely care about the lives of the unborn.
