George W

You know I have to include at least one from the Commander In Chief. How's this:

"And there is distrust in Washington. I am surprised, frankly, at the amount of distrust that exists in this town. And I'm sorry it's the case, and I'll work hard to try to elevate it." --interview on National Public Radio, Jan. 29, 2007

O.J.

Our friendly Hertz spokesman is at it again. I am sure most all of you have heard about the new mess the former Buffalo tailback is in. We may have to name a trophy after him before he is done.
Here is his beauty:.

Justice of the Peace Joe Bonaventure ruled Simpson would stand trial on all 12 counts. Simpson replied "If I have any disappointment, it's that I wish a jury was here.""As always, I rely on the jury system."

I bet you do O.J., I bet you do. "If the glove doesn't fit, you must acquit." I bet he is wishing Mr Johnny Cochran was still here to acquit.

Marbury

Here is a quote that I believe NBA player Stephon Marbury may come to regret. This is a classic case of foot-in-the-mouthitis. He made the following statements after leaving the team Monday.

Marbury made his decision to return home to New York once he was informed on the team charter plane Monday afternoon that he would not be starting against the Suns.

"Isiah has to start me," Marbury fumed, according to the source. "I've got so much (stuff) on Isiah and he knows it. He thinks he can (get) me. But I'll (get) him first. You have no idea what I know." It is unclear if Marbury made the same threat directly to Isiah Thomas, whose first big move as team president was trading for Marbury.

Rep. Tom Tancredo

Ok, is it any wonder our government is such a mess? Read this comment from the brilliant GOP Rep. Tom Tancredo regarding Miami at an immigration conference in Palm Beach:

"Look at what has happened to Miami. It has become a Third World country. You just pick it up and take it and move it someplace. You would never know you're in the United States of America. You would certainly say you're in a Third World country," Tancredo said.

I have spent some time in Miami and found it quite nice. Rhetoric like this will not help solve any problems. Get a grip sir, and tackle problems with common sense not hurtful hot air.

Iran Again

Another gem from the Iranian President, this time discussing his peoples friendship with Israel.

"We love all nations. We are friends with the Jewish people. There are many Jews living in Iran with security. You must understand that in our constitution and our laws and the parliamentary elections for every 150,000 people we get one representative in the parliament. For the Jewish community one-fifth of this number they still get one independent representative in the parliament. Our proposal to the Palestinian plight is a humanitarian and a democratic proposal. What we say is that to solve this 60-year problem, we must allow the Palestinian people to decide about its future for itself". Video Link

Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad

This won't be the first time we visit the Iranian President. Here he is asked about homosexuals being executed in Iran.

"In Iran we don't have homosexuals like in your country. We don't have that like in your country. ... In Iran we do not have this phenomenon. I don't know who's told you that we have this". Link to video

Of course you don't, you have killed them all idiot!

Dog The Bounty Hunter

I always knew this guy was brilliant. Take a read.........

In the interview with Sean Hannity for the Fox News "Hannity & Colmes" show, Chapman denied being a racist and said he used the N-word conversationally when talking to black acquaintances.

"I thought that I was cool enough in the black world to be able to use that word as a brother to a brother," he said. "I'm not. I didn't know really know until three or four days ago what that meant to black people."

"I now learned I'm not black at all," Chapman said. "And I never did it out of hate."

"All black people in America I owe an apology to," Chapman said during in the interview. "Whether, how dark I think I am, I cannot say that word. I owe the rest of the people, whether they are black or not in America, an apology because people look up to me."

"If I could kill myself and people would forgive me, I would do that," he said.

Chapman also specifically apologized to his son's girlfriend, Monique Shinnery. But Shinnery told the Enquirer that Chapman's attorney, not the TV star, called with an apology.

Chapman also said he is making a deal to be buried at a historic slave burial ground near George Washington's Mount Vernon home.

"I want to be buried right where they're at because I will never be forgiven as (long as) I'm alive," Chapman said.

Chapman appeared on CNN's "Larry King Live" on Wednesday night. He told King that he used the N-word not because of Shinnery's race, but to make a point with his son, who had served time for robbery.

"I referenced it, the only word I know, that would hurt his feelings or catch his attention very fast � never as a prejudicial or racial slur or anything like that," Chapman said.(from yahoo.com)

I don't even know where to start. He thought he was cool enough in the black world to use the word brother to brother? I though he was talking to his son. Whatever. Here are some video links to his interviews......priceless!
