"You never want a serious crisis to go waste." Oh, kind of like Bush et al turned 9/11 into an excuse to attack a country that had nothing to do with it?

"I'm going to have to hear you all whine after Obama wins in a landslide. Actually, they won't spend any time whining. They'll be too busy concocting bogus "voter fraud" narratives.

It sounds like something that could happen in a banana republic.

"Anyone who gives validity to the vapor this retard spews is retarded themselves." The shallowness of his thought and the narrowness of his vision never cease to amaze. Just the other day, for another example, he was griping about how much it cost him to gas up his Hummer. That even earned a negative response from George Will.
