Dezinformatsia
That nutty Tea Party: "If we have a Republican Party that actually takes the White House, actually has control of Congress, but contains a large wing of these people, it's going to be incapable of making real choices. These are people who are as irrational as they seem in these ads. ... There are some seriously strange people running, thanks to the Tea Party. ... It's not just suspicion of government. We have people out there believing that this basically centrist moderate president we have is a socialist bringing Sharia law to America. None of that is rational." --New York Times columnist Paul Krugman
"I think that the Tea Party -- I think that that piece of the Republican Party is vapid. It has no ideas. It will lead us down a dangerous road. ... I think the reason they need to sort of run on the vapid claims about less government equals more freedom is because, at its root, what they are going back to is a Herbert Hoover vision of government -- pre-FDR -- saying, we want to take away the very pieces of government that created the middle class." --CNN's new host Eliot Spitzer, ignoring the fact that Hoover laid the foundation for government interference that FDR ran with later
Gut buster: "We have so many different voices. We're not trying to push Democratic talking points, as some people accuse us of." --MSNBC President Phil Griffin
This just in: "With the exception of core Obama administration loyalists, most politically engaged elites have reached the same conclusions: the White House is in over its head, isolated, insular, arrogant and clueless about how to get along with or persuade members of Congress, the media, the business community or working-class voters." --Time's Mark Halperin
"Obama has a considerable ego." --New Yorker columnist David Remnick
Sometimes they nail it: "The New York Times looked into the Chamber [of Commerce] specifically and said the Chamber really isn't putting foreign money into the campaign. ... But this part about foreign money, that appears to be peanuts, Mr. Axelrod, I mean, do you have any evidence that it's anything other than peanuts? ... If the only charge, three weeks into the election that the Democrats can make is that there's somehow this may or may not be foreign money coming into the campaign, is that the best you can do?" --CBS's Bob Schieffer to David Axelrod

Village Idiots
Generating fear over nothing: "The fact is that the Chamber [of Commerce] ... won't release any information about where their campaign money is coming from. And that's at the core of the problem here. What we've seen in part because of a loophole that the Supreme Court allowed earlier this year, we now see tens of millions of dollars being spent by the Chamber and a number of organizations some of which just cropped up. ... So I guess, my question ... is why not simply disclose where this money is coming from? And then all of these questions will be answered." --White House adviser David Axelrod
Tempest over the Tea Party: "What they've done is essentially created a monster [with the Tea Party]. Their rhetoric has been so uncompromising, so inaccurate, so ludicrous, that ... they've given permission for this wing of the Republican Party ... this is a Tea Party group, to say outrageous things. For the mainstream voter, it is frightening to see that." --former DNC Chief Howard Dean
"These are the small-town enemies of everybody. They just dislike everyone. They couldn't come out and say: 'We don't want a black president' -- we've finally got past that roadblock. So what they did was set out to slaughter the opposition party, the Democrats." --author Gore Vidal on the Tea Party
Village Victimitis: "We have seen a small but vocal group of bigots and hate-mongers manufacture an atmosphere of anti-Islam hysteria through smear campaigns that rely on distortions, misinformation and outright falsehoods. ... It will take joint efforts by people of goodwill of all faiths to challenge this epidemic of hate." --Nihad Awad, Executive Director of the Council on American-Islamic Relations
Short Cuts
"The White House admitted ... that ninety thousand stimulus checks were sent out to dead people last year. It's worse than that. The dead are late in reporting whether they spent their stimulus money to install solar panels or to retain teachers." --comedian Argus Hamilton
"In Rolling Stone magazine, Obama berated members of his base for their lethargy and 'sitting on their hands complaining.' One leftist remarked, 'I've never seen a politician run an election with the message 'Don't be stupid, quit your bitching and vote for me.'" --columnist David Limbaugh
"The week ended with 36 attendees at an Obama rally in Maryland collapsing in apparent illness. As one wag said it seems like just yesterday Obama crowds were swooning; now they are simply sickened." --columnist Clarice Feldman
"There are rumors of an Obama-Hillary ticket for 2012, though some insiders say Obama doesn't feel he needs Hillary on the ticket. At this point, I don't think Hillary feels that she needs Obama on the ticket." --comedian Jay Leno
(Please pray for our Armed Forces standing in harm's way around the world, and for their families -- especially families of those fallen Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen, Marines and Coast Guardsmen, who granted their lives in defense of American liberty.)
