Randomness
PlanetOut sends me news updates every week and they've always got really interesting quotes at the bottom. I've been wanting to put the following in the "Quote Of The Moment" section but there is a restriction on the number of characters apparently so... Here they are in all of their glory.
"Bush is an incompetent leader. In fact, he's not a leader. He's a person who has no judgment, no experience and no knowledge of the subjects that he has to decide upon. ... The shallowness that he has brought to the office has not changed since he got there. ... The president's capacity to lead has never been there. In order to lead, you have to have judgment. In order to have judgment, you have to have knowledge and experience. He has none." -- House of Representatives Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi of California, to the San Francisco Chronicle, May 20
"Sure, of course." -- First Lady Laura Bush when asked by the Boston Globe May 21 "whether she would invite a married, gay couple to a state dinner at the White House." Mrs. Bush's press secretary, Gordon Johndroe, interrupted to say he could not imagine such a situation arising. Johndroe also accused the reporter who asked the question of "trivializing an issue that people are seriously trying to debate in this country."
"It's so easy to feel superior to the Americans when they have a moron running the country. Even the French would be hard-pressed to create a more revolting American stereotype than George Bush's Texas cowboy doofus. His vile record as a presidential bigot and warlord is so perfectly reflected in his public image: his arrogant swagger, his ignorant words and the hokey drawl with which he mangles them." -- David Walberg, publisher of the Toronto gay newspaper Xtra!, in a May 27 editorial.
