Some quotes from 2004...Some great ones re: Fox News
The entire op-ed is here

...MSNBC's Keith Olbermann said "Fox News is hated because they're elitist and the worst winners television's ever seen." Also referring to Fox News, he said "Shallow, phony patriotism will always draw a crowd, like dogs humping in the street."

... Eve Ensler, genitally oriented author of "The Vagina Monologues," said at a feminist concert and rally for Kerry in New York that women should "Step into your vaginas" on Nov. 2, an unusual approach to voting and one that sounds just plain uncomfortable.

"Step into your vaginas" to vote? Interesting concept.

1. It is obvious to me that whomever wrote this so-called Op-Ed
piece was definitely writing from the right-wing perspective. I counted zero malapropisms from the Awol C-in-C.

But some of them are pretty funny. Love the Keith Olberman quote about dogs humping in the streets. That's classic.

On edit: I had to post the link. I couldn't pull out only the choice quotes without people asking for the link to go with them.

3. By the way
I've read a correction that states the quote from the Dixie Chick did not occur. It would've been funny if she had said it though.

4. Step into your vagina to vote?
Man, that beats the trick I did to pull the lever without my hands when I voted...

6. I don't think
The idiotic quotes from that group could fit in a single article. That would be more like a three part book series.
