Tony Blair:

If America wants the rest of the world to be part of the agenda it has set, it must be part of their agenda, too.

Reminds me of a joke that’s making the rounds—something to offend everyone:

Last month a worldwide survey was conducted by the UN. The only question asked was:

“Would you please give your honest opinion about solutions to the food shortage in the rest of the world?”

The survey was a huge failure...

In Africa they didn’t know what ‘food’ meant.
In Eastern Europe they didn’t know what ‘honest’ meant.
In Western Europe they didn’t know what ‘shortage’ meant.
In China they didn’t know what ‘opinion’ meant.
In the Middle East they didn’t know what ‘solution’ meant.
In South America they didn’t know what ‘please’ meant.
And in the USA they didn’t know what ‘the rest of the world’ meant.

From the Daily Show:

Senator Kay Bailey Hutchison on the Senate floor:

I don’t think that rehashing potential mistakes that people might think have been made in the war on terrorism, specifically in Iraq, are something that should be brought up as a reason to vote against Condoleezza Rice for Secretary of State.

Jon Stewart:

Hear, hear! People should not be held responsible for the things they’ve done!

You know, I’ve said this over and over again: you cannot, in today’s world, judge a book by its contents.
