Flogging a dead horse of course, but I needed a laugh.
"It is a feather in North Carolina's cap for us to be No. 50 (in return of federal tax dollars). We use less of the taxpayers' money for welfare and that sort of thing." -- Charlotte Observer, 4/21/1991
"There have been 248 different U.S. senators in the 18 years and 5 months I have been there. None-none-have been more capable than Dan Quayle." -- The News & Observer, 6/4/1991
"I'm so old-fashioned I believe in horsewhipping." -- The News & Observer, 7/19/1991
"He (Russian leader Vladimir Putin) absolutely doesn't give a tinker's damn. He's going to corner those people, he's going to push them back, he's going to murder them - and then go have a glass of vodka." -- The News & Observer, 7/4/2000
"No, I do not. And neither do the people in the armed forces. Mr. Clinton better watch out if he comes down here. He'd better have a bodyguard."
"Your tax dollars are being used to pay for grade-school classes that teach our children that CANNIBALISM, WIFE-SWAPPING and MURDER of infants and the elderly are acceptable behavior."
"All Latins are volatile people. Hence, I was not surprised at the volatile reaction."
"The New York Times and Washington Post are both infested with homosexuals themselves. Just about every person down there is a homosexual or lesbian."
And, as a bonus, would that be No-facts defending Jesse?
Robert Novak: "In truth, anybody who really knows Jesse Helms should acknowledge him as an amiable Southern gentleman totally uninterested in racial politics. What has driven him throughout more than 28 years as a senator has been national security during and after the Cold War. He has so often defeated the liberal conventional wisdom in shaping international policy that enemies have been reduced to ad hominem assaults and playing the race card.
