Alec Baldwin:
"Bush wasn’t elected, he was selected – selected by five judges up in Washington who voted along party lines.”
“Cheney is a terrorist. He terrorizes our enemies abroad and innocent citizens here at home indiscriminately.”
“Everything that Bush touches turns to manure in public policy.”
“I wanted to be president of the United States. I really did. The older I get, the less preposterous the idea seems.”
“Sometimes, you know, the president is a father-like figure in American society, to most Americans, even today, no matter how cynical we’ve become. And people don’t want to think that daddy’s a bum all the time. They don’t want to think that Daddy’s a liar, a cheat and a fraud.”

“…(following the impeachment of Clinton) all of us together would go down to Washington and we would stone Henry Hyde to death! We would stone him to death! Wait! Shut up! Shut up! No shut up! I’m not finished. We would stone Henry Hyde to death and we would go to their homes and we’d kill their wives and their children. We would kill their families.”Source
“I never made that statement [about leaving the country if Pres. Bush was elected], but you can tell Gov. Bush to rest assured that I’m not going to leave the country because we have to get him out of office and we have to get his brother out of office in 2004. We’re not resting until we get that done. Bush wasn’t elected, he was selected ; selected by five judges up in Washington who voted along party lines.”
Sean Penn:
"I am more patriotic than this president we have, who I consider a traitor of human and American principles.”

Janeane Garafalo:
"There is no evidence to support that the current incarnation of the Republican Party-hyphen-conservative movement has any tethering to decency, kindness, tolerance (or) open-mindedness," she said. "What do they stand for? Torture as a policy. They stand for homophobia. They stand for no reproductive justice. They stand for denying global warming."
A flabbergasted Fund, who was sitting next to her, asked: "So what should we do, jail them?"
"That would be great!" Garofalo exclaimed with a straight face.
"Our country is founded on a sham: our forefathers were slave-owning rich white guys who wanted it their way. So when I see the American flag, I go, 'Oh my God, you're insulting me.' That you can have a gay parade on Christopher Street in New York, with naked men and women on a float cheering, 'We're here, we're queer!' -- that's what makes my heart swell. Not the flag, but a gay naked man or woman burning the flag. I get choked up with pride."
Bill Maher:
HBO "Real Time" host Bill Maher compared First Lady Laura Bush to "Hitler's dog" during his Friday night cablecast, after flashing a parody photo of Mrs. Bush with a black eye, as if she'd been a victim of domestic abuse.
After the photo display, Maher was challenged by guest panelist Christopher Hitchens, who told him: "It must be to [George Bush's] credit he got Laura Bush to marry him. She's an absolutely extraordinary woman."
To that, Maher replied: "Oh, come on. That's like Hitler's dog loved him. That is the silliest reason. ..."
"I want you teabaggers out there to understand one thing: while you idolize the Founding Fathers and dress up like them, and smell like them, I think it's pretty clear that the Founding Fathers would have hated your guts. And what's more, you would've hated them. They were everything you despise. They studied science, read Plato, hung out in Paris and thought the Bible was mostly bulls**t."–Bill Maher
"Being politicians, they all got to sharing their personal stories. Obama talked about his mother's battle with cancer. Harry Reid talked about a kid with a cleft palate. And John McCain told how he once carried a brain dead woman through an entire campaign." –Bill Maher, on Obama's health care summit
