or plastic.

same Wall Street kitchen.
-Huey P. Long

Democrats are for abortion until their daughter wants one.

institution that will compromise personal liberty and freedom by

agenda. Republicans, of course, believe that is the job of organized
religion.

The conventional rules of Beltway journalism... divide the world into
Democrats and Republicans, liberals and conservatives, and allow
journalists to pretend they have done their job if instead of reporting
the truth behind the news, they merely give each side an opportunity to
spin the news.
-Bill Moyers
The Democrats and Republicans are the same guy admiring himself in the
mirror.
-Kinky Friedman
The Democrats don't want anyone to be born, but if you are, they will
take care of you from the cradle to the grave. The Republicans don't
mind if you are born, if you assure them that you don't plan to live
long enough to collect your Social Security.
-Mort Sahl

The Republican and Democratic parties, or, to be more exact, the
Republican-Democratic party, represent the capitalist class in the class
struggle. They are the political wings of the capitalist system and such
differences as arise between them relate to spoils and not to principles.
-Eugene
V. Debs
The Republicans believe the wagon train will not make it to the frontier
unless some of our old, some of our young, and some of our weak are left
behind by the side of the trail. We Democrats believe that we can make
it all the way with the whole family intact.
- Mario Cuomo

When, in the late 1940s, we faced a global Cold War against another
system of ideological fanatics certain that their authoritarian values
would eventually rule the world, we prevailed in time. We prevailed
because we exercised patience as well as vigilance, self-restraint as
well as self-defense, and reached out to moderates and modernists, to
democrats and dissidents, within that closed system.

(Ted) Sorensen
