"Greatest quotations" by the greatest liberals (of all time?)
By Curtis Dahlgren
"Sometimes I think the world is going crazy. The rest of the time I KNOW it." – BT magazine
CHOOSING THE BEST NIHILIST QUOTATIONS OF ALL TIME ISN'T EASY, but here goes nothing:
"The era of big government is over." – Wm. Jefferson Blythe Clinton
"No more deficits; no more debt." – Nancy Pelosi (2006?)
"We have beaten the business cycle." – WJBC
"We have to pass it so we can find out what's in it." – Nancy Pelosi (2009)
"Fox News is worse than al Qaeda. It's as dangerous as the Ku Klux Klan." – Keith Olbermann
"This is the moment the earth began to heal." – Barack Obama
"We're serious about this." – Joe Biden
"I am not naïve." – B.O.
"Did you know that we are the only people in the United States who have to have their voting rights okayed every couple of years?" – Whoopi Goldberg
"The border is as secure as it's ever been." – Janet Napolitano
"We are defined not by our borders but by our bonds." – B.Obama
"Mr. Bush, at long last has it not dawned on you that the America you have now created includes cold-blooded killers who will kill people to achieve their political objectives?" – Keith Olbermann
"If I hear one more Republican talk about balancing the budget, I'm going to strangle him." – Joe Biden
"We never said it was going to be free." – B.Obama
"We're [really] serious about [that]." – J.Biden
"There comes a time when you've made enough money." – B. Obama
"You [Geo. Bush] are a fascist." – K. Olbermann
"We're not going to have you burdening the health system." – B. Obama
"We're serious about this." – J. Biden
"It might be smarter just to take a pain pill." – B. Obama
"I've visited all 57 states." – B. Obama
"We're serious about this!" – J. Biden
"What began as a whisper has now swelled to a chorus that cannot be ignored – that will ring out across this land as a hymn that will heal this nation, repair this world, and make this time different than all the rest." – B. Obama (February 5, 2008)
"From the streets to the Senate chamber, I've never had to prove my manhood to anyone." – Harry Reid
"If the GOP wins, it's going to be man-to-man combat." – B. Obama
"[Michelle Malkin] has been supporting a party which includes most of the idiots in this country who would judge her entirely and exclusively on her [Filipino] appearance." – Keith Olbermann
We are the ones we've been waiting for." – B. Obama
"Tell me who[m] you walk with, and I'll tell you who[m] you are." – B. Obama
"Not God bless America, but G. D. America!" – Jeremiah Wright
"You can keep your plan." – B.O.
"That's between him and his – y'know – psychiatrist." – NPR (on a liberal flirting who was with reality in 2009)
CONCLUSIONS?
George Orwell – who was NOT a liberal – said: "Freedom is the freedom to say that two and two make four. If that is granted, all else follows."
When people begin to say that 2 + 2 equals five, it's scary, but it would be wrong to make them shut up, as John Stuart Mill would put it. Now when the people who say that 2 + 2 = FOUR are silenced, that's really scary! AND IT'S STARTING TO HAPPEN.
P.S. This column was adapted from a column I wrote about nine years ago. It is even more relevant now because some people in Big Education, Academania, are starting to say that math is white supremacy or white privilege or something, and "What is truth?"
PPS: That question, in case you didn't know, was by Pontius Pilate. Nihilism is as old as mankind. Nihilists believe in nothing for sure. They are very non-judgmental (except when it comes to "impeaching" a President over NIL – "nothing").
