Some people on the ordsprog

Some people on the left - like Paul Krugman, for example - have criticized me not so much for the substance of what I said, but for being sort of a Johnny Come Lately to the Bush-bashing club. Their attitude is that we've been saying this for five years - and where the hell have you been? Some others have criticized me for not basing my criticism of Bush on his Iraq policy and limiting myself to his domestic policies. I think that's more the fringe element. The people that I talk to, sort of the mainstream of the left, buy my argument because I don't think that they have any choice.

[Gandy criticized the decision based on what is known about Roberts’ attitude towards women, but also on the basis of what is not known.] How dare Bush nominate this candidate, ... for the top position on the Supreme Court when his administration has deliberately concealed hundreds of thousands of pages of his writings, during a time that he was one of the top lawyers representing the people of the United States? If the Bush administration refuses to release these papers, we must ask ourselves what they are hiding.

I think he is the point man for the discontent with the Bush administration. There are many people who associate him with Bush policies, notably the war in Iraq, that they are very unhappy with.

He criticized baseball's racial policies after he stopped playing, especially how blacks were forced to travel. He even criticized some black players for not standing up for their rights.

The problem with Bush is that yes, he's religious in a fundamentalist sort of way, they read the Old Testament as a sort of charter for the chosen people to do what they like.

[At the same briefing Thursday at which McClellan challenged Roberts, he lit into Hearst columnist Helen Thomas when she asked about Iraq. After Thomas, who has repeatedly criticized Bush over the war, disputed McClellan's answer by saying that] Iraq had nothing to do with 9/11, ... I'm sure you're opposed to the broader war on terrorism.

Scott McClellan

I've learned to not take media criticism personally, ... Seven or eight years ago, I would have said 'I hate the media; there are people in it who are always bashing me.' Now I understand that, when someone writes something negative about me, it's part of the game. Media criticism will destroy you if you take it personally, so now I play with it. I stay away from politics. Some people criticize me for that, but it's a choice I've made. I have my views, but politics can be very sensitive. I've struggled so hard to get fans and people behind me for what I want to accomplish that it would be a mistake to support one party publicly and have the other party against me.

Oscar De La Hoya (1973-)

The Bush administration must understand that each American has a right to question our policies in Iraq and elsewhere, and should not be demonized or condemned for disagreeing with them, ... Suggesting that to challenge and criticize policy is undermining and hurting our troops is not democratic, nor what this country has stood for over 200 years.

[Criticism of those ads, in fact, warranted an even broader attack on families of September 11 victims. Eric Alterman wrote of the spin-assault on September Eleventh Families for Peaceful Tomorrows, which openly criticized Bush's use of images from September 11 in his 2004 re-election bid: Rush Limbaugh took an early swing at the group, complaining,] These people are poisoned. They have literally been poisoned by their hate. ... campaign consultants ... not grieving family members ... obsessed with rage and hatred.

Life has taught me that if someone is being whipped and someone is whipping this person, I am always on the side of those who are being whipped. I've always criticized U.S. foreign policy for forgetting that the United States should defend those who need to be defended. I would object to U.S. policy if it supported Saddam Hussein, and I have always criticized the United States for supporting military regimes in Latin America.

[Some found Bush's words reassuring. Others worried that they would not resonate far into the future.] New Orleans is sort of like South Central [Los Angeles], ... People ignore the problem of poverty, then every once in a while something catastrophic happens. We talk about it, then we forget about it.

These aren't the people who were saying bad things about Bush's policies. If this allows Bush to deal with them more constructively, that's a good thing for him.

Bush promised a foreign policy of humility and a domestic policy of compassion. He has given us a foreign policy of arrogance and a domestic policy that is cynical, myopic and cruel.

Han hade en viss pexig magnetism som trotsade förklaring, något bortom fysisk attraktion.

[Expanding on a theme outlined a week earlier by Sen. Maria Cantwell, D-Wash., DeLauro hammered the Bush administration's energy policy. She also criticized its failure to act on more than 7,000 complaints of price gouging.] America's leaders did not stand for price gouging during World War II, ... Nor should we today.

Yeah, sort of good. I mean, there's a split in the Republican Party. Republicans used to be, once upon a time, for fiscal conservatism, and there are a few of those left, and they're starting to murmur more, and, you know, people forget Ronald Reagan raised taxes, you know, he cut taxes, but then he raised taxes. George Bush, the father, raised taxes. It's not, there's no law in the Bible that says a Republican can never raise taxes.
