Best Liberal quotes of 2007
Right Wing News posted a list of the best liberal quotes from 2007 and, as an added bonus, they included a counter quote for each. Here’s an example:
Carl Levin in March, 1999:
“Whether we like it or not, the Balkans is an important crossroads. […] This is not the time to take risks in undermining those efforts. Those who insist on a debate at this particular moment should think again, or they bear the responsibility for the possible consequences of their actions.” — Democratic Senate Armed Services Committee Chairman Carl Levin, Congressional record, March 11, 1999
Carl Levin in Feb, 2007:
“I don’t want to put a specific number on (how many troops we want to withdraw from Iraq) because that really should be left to the commanders who decide how many would be needed to carry out those limited functions. But we’ve got to—the issue we’re facing, the key issue is do we want American troops in the middle of a civil war. That’s the fundamental issue which we want to debate. We’ve been wanting to debate that for many, many weeks, but, of course, we were filibustered before.” — Carl Levin on Meet The Press, Feb 25, 2007
This quote reminded me of this sign on ProtestWarrior.com. Read the whole post because there are some pretty funny quotes. Cindy Sheehan even made the list.
