I tell my staff, we're riding a tour bus around, and we're going to stop and look at some weird stuff - but we're taking our viewers around safely. They're just looking out the window at it. I'm trying to create a sense of comfort for my center audience.
We've always had a dual role in the region - friend of Israel, and honest broker. We've given up the honest broker role completely.
If Bernie Sanders hasn`t been able to draw a contrast with Hillary Clinton, why is he doing so well, a guy - most people never heard of this fellow before.
How do we know when someone like Hasan is going to make his move and do we know he's an Islamist until he's made his move? He makes a phone call or whatever, according to Reuters right now. Apparently he tried to contact al-Qaida. Is that the point at which you say, "This guy is dangerous?" That's not a crime to call up al-Qaida, is it? Is it? I mean, where do you stop the guy?

I wonder... if the Republican Party really wants to be branded right now as the party of tax cuts and torture? I mean that's what they're selling.
Sarah Palin is an empty vessel ready to be filled by ideology that she doesn't even understand, and that is really scary. Nothing is more frightening than an empty vessel in power.
Hillary Clinton did better among working-class whites when she`s running against Barack Hussein Obama. How is she doing now against an older, a professor type, who seems very unthreatening, very likable.
The big lie is that the people who make a lot of money were the only ones that worked hard.
Any jackass can talk about bombing Iran.
