“The Rulers of Russia, then, are Jewish Politicians, and they are applying to the world the doctrine of Karl Marx (Mordecai).

“Have you ever noticed that the only metaphor we have in our public discourse for solving problems is to declare war on it? We have the war on crime, the war on cancer, the war on drugs. But did you ever notice that we have no war on homelessness? You know why? Because there's no money in that problem. No money to be made off of the homeless. If you can find a solution to homelessness where the corporations and politicians can make a few million dollars each, you will see the streets of America begin to clear up pretty damn quick!” IfsKnowsMadeWarProblemAmericaMillionsClearStreetsCrimePoliticianDrugSolutionsDollarsMetaphorCancerCorporationsDamnProblem SolvingHomelessDiscourseHomelessnessMillion DollarsNo MoneyWar On DrugsNo WarPublic Discourse Author:George Carlin
“It's clear the CIA was trying to play 'keep away' with documents relevant to an investigation by their overseers in Congress, and that's a serious constitutional concern.

“Let's be clear: all professions look bad in the movies. And there's a good reason for this. Movies don't portray career paths, they conscript interesting lifestyles to serve a plot. So lawyers are all unscrupulous and doctors are all uncaring. Psychiatrists are all crazy, and politicians are all corrupt. All cops are psychopaths, and all businessmen are crooks. Even moviemakers come off badly: directors are megalomaniacs, actors are spoiled brats. Since all occupations are portrayed negatively, why expect scientists to be treated differently?” LooksReasonActorsInterestingCareersPathClearCrazyPoliticianDirectorsDoctorsScientistProfessionLawyerLifestyleTreatedPlotOccupationCopBusinessmanPsychiatristSpoiledPsychopathCrooksCareer PathBratUncaringInteresting LifeMegalomaniacsSpoiled Brat Author:Michael Crichton
“Where taxes are concerned, there are two clear-cut points of view. There are those who think they're too high and those who think they should be even higher because, after all, politicians spend our money far more wisely than we do.

“People at civil-liberties organizations say it's a sea change, and that it's very clear judges have begun to question more critically assertions made by the executive. Even though it seems so obvious now, it is extraordinary in the context of the last decade, because courts had simply said they were not the best branch to adjudicate these claims - which is completely wrong, because they are the only nonpolitical branch.
