If you are not electing Christians, then in essence you are going to legislate sin.

Former Rep. Katherine Harris [R-FL] in 2006 interview. Harris who, as Florida's secretary of state, helped Bush prevail in the 2000 recount, also called the separation of church and state "a lie" and said, " God is the one who chooses our rulers."

Others are misquotes from him. Also check them through Snopes.

Some others were quoted from other people, but contributed to Quayle. Check them through Snopes.

There several others that are from humor writers, misquoted or never stated by the people you posted that are incorrect, but at this time I do not have the time to go back through them all again. That is something you can to do that should have been done the first time around. And by the way...use Snopes.
What's the big deal?? Why dig any of it up? What is so important to prove, to investigate? Why be skeptical? They are funny regardless. At least he takes the time to put them on here. Keep them coming Noreply, everyone deserves a little laughter to get the day started.

"And let me say in conclusion, thanks for the kids. I learned an awful lot about bathtub toys.......about how to work the telephone. One guy knows...........several of them know their own phone numbers....... preparation to go to the dentist. A lot of things I'd forgotten. So it's been a good day.'

It's just dumb to post something that was never stated. And no....they are NOT funny if they are not true.... But it is funny since it makes the poster look foolish because he believes it.

Theres a flip side to that coin. Posters that are picky and run other posters post's under a microscope looks foolish also. :122245

Thanks for pointing out that you are foolish by doing exactly that, but we already knew it.

No need for me to use a microscope to point out the errors. They were plain to see. Anyone with common sense could see it.

Who's we?? I've got enough common sense and manners not to bash somebody's post's in front of everyone. The man is just trying to put some humor on here. And it is putting it under a microscope per say, or going over his post's with a fine tooth comb. Why pick? :122249

Does it matter who "we" are. I know for a fact that it is more than just me....lol. As for using fine tooth comb...it was not needed. My toothless comb found them the errors the first time I went over them. No microscope was needed. Made up quotes are not humorous

No, "we" doesn't matter. Because i could careless. So, your toothless comb found them? Thats still picking. How many cookies do you want for your great find? No more being said.

Thats it. When you can't keep up, you run away. How typical. No "picking" involved. Even a blind man could spot those lies.

Well, what I want them to know is just like, John Wayne was from Waterloo, Iowa. That's the kind of spirit that I have, too.

Rail as they will about ...discrimination, women are simply not endowed by nature with the same measures of single-minded ambition and the will to succeed in the fiercely competitive world of Western capitalism.
