Where can one find a better a 1-stop-shopping place for a quote-of-the-day?

A great clip. Only trouble with it is that I had difficulty in turning it off (getting it to stop playing over.)

The Bush administration, which took off seven years ago as social conservatives is now leraving office as conservbative socialists.

Definitely a good clip.

Uncle Milty Freedman and Ronald Reagan were the worst two men in our modern recent history, and the perpetuation of their ideas by the right wing of the Republican party have brought us to our knees. This bailout of the financial institution that have ruined us is a travesty of injustice--the lack of oversight and rules for what they can do with our taxpayer money after they raped us is unconscionable and will continue our decline into a third world status.

Every CEO of a corporation that is receiving taxpayer monies must be fired without bonus or any other compensation. Failure should not be rewarded with a bonus. In no other industries would such behavior be rewarded. If I fail at my job I am not given a big bonus, I'd be fired.

Bill Clinton is not without guilt in all of this.
