UPRIGHT“Seinfeld’s George Costanza famously quipped: ‘It’s not a lie if you believe it.’ This is how a Clinton — take your pick, Hillary, Bill or Chelsea — makes it through the day. Better living through self-delusion.” — Michelle Malkin
“Which works best? Inflaming old hatreds and feeding paranoia among the next generation? Or teaching children that what they have in common is greater than their differences? The answer is obvious, but some people — both black and white — are deeply invested in preserving rather than healing wounds.” — Kathleen Parker
“There will always be more to do in order to create that elusive ‘more perfect union,’ but it’s important for spiritual — and political — leaders to remind us that social conscience has sometimes done its work, that some things in the past are definitely dead, and buried.” — Suzanne Fields
“Government... now resembles an irresponsible parent, spending the children’s wages and inheritance as if there were no tomorrow.” — Cal Thomas
“The U.S. can welcome immigrants while at the same time encouraging assimilation. Everyone is free to practice the customs and language of his native land, but today immigrants are actively discouraged from learning the few common things that bind this country together, such as English... Anti-immigration sentiment will only rise if assimilation continues to be a dirty word.” — John Fund
DEZINFORMATSIASeemingly reporting: “Video shot that day [in 1996 in Bosnia] seemingly contradicts [Hillary Clinton’s] version of events. No one seems to be running or ducking, and there does appear to be a ceremony.” — CNN’s Dan Lothian **“Seemingly”? The video shows what it shows — no one running and a full greeting ceremony.
Hillary the Terminator: “It is a tribute to Hillary Clinton that even though, rationally, political soothsayers think she can no longer win, irrationally, they wonder how she will pull it off. It’s impossible to imagine The Terminator, as a former aide calls her, giving up. Unless every circuit is out, she’ll regenerate enough to claw her way out of the grave, crawl through the Rezko Memorial Lawn and up Obama’s wall, hurl her torso into the house and brutally haunt his dreams.” — New York Times columnist Maureen Dowd
From the sycophants: “By most accounts, Obama did a masterful job aligning the promise of his candidacy with the grievances expressed by both blacks and whites, noting in particular how the anger of working-class whites over affirmative action and welfare formed the Reagan coalition.” — Newsweek’s Eleanor Clift
From the Queen of Baggage: “Barack Obama wanted to have a national conversation about race. Well, he’s getting one. Hillary Clinton’s campaign seems to be using the inflammatory comments of Obama’s minister, Jeremiah Wright, to make the argument to party insiders, or superdelegates, that Obama has too much baggage to win in November, as she seemed to acknowledge today.” — ABC’s Jake Tapper
This week’s “Spike” Award: “The city of Detroit is in a crisis over government and leadership. The current Mayor is just the latest Detroit Mayor elected on a promise to clean up and revitalize the city. Now he’s been caught in a sex scandal, a trail of electronic messages reportedly provides the evidence, it threatens his career and then some.” — NBC’s Brian Williams, who by the way forgot to mention that the Mayor is a Democrat
