The words of the prophets
"We and we alone are the right frame of mind to free this nation from this Obama oppression. And let's give thanks to all the great people like Sean Hannity, Rush Limbaugh, Bill O'Reilly, Laura Ingraham, Mark Levin, William Bennett, Glenn Beck, Hugh Hewitt, Dennis Prager, Michael Medved, Dennis Miller, Dick Morris, Ann Coulter, John Kasich, Michael Steele, Karl Rove, Newt Gingrich, Thomas Sowell, Victor Davis Hanson, Shelby Steele, Charles Krauthammer, Michelle Malkin, Fred Barnes and so many others. Let's give thanks to them for not giving up and staying the course, to bring an end to this false prophet Obama."
- Jon Voigt, 6/9/09
"Governor, why wouldn't anyone want to say the Pledge of Allegiance, unless they detested their own country or were ignorant of its greatness?"
- Sean Hannity, 6/12/03
"This is no different than what happens at the Skull and Bones initiation...I'm talking about people having a good time, these people, you ever heard of emotional release? You ever heard of the need to blow some steam off?"
- Rush Limbaugh, commenting on the torture of prisoners by American troops at Abu Ghraib
"It's hard to do it because you gotta look people in the eye and tell 'em they're irresponsible and lazy. And who's gonna wanna do that? Because that's what poverty is, ladies and gentlemen. In this country, you can succeed if you get educated and work hard. Period. Period. I mean, I know people from Haiti, from the Ukraine, from, eh-we got callers all day long on The Factor. From Romania. You come here, you get educated, you work hard, you'll make a buck. You get addicted, you don't know anything, you'll be poor."
- Bill O'Reilly, 6/11/07
"Every now and again we have to ask ourselves, what's the point of this thing called America, anyway? Is the point to make as much money as possible in our lifetimes? Is this nation called to some higher purpose? Are we living the way God wants us to live? And if not, why not? ...Our Judeo-Christian tradition has done more good for America and the rest of the world than left-wing secularism ever will."
- Laura Ingraham, POWER TO THE PEOPLE
"Today, legalized abortion is the law of the land because the Supreme Court decided in 1973 that its recently created constitutional right to privacy also included a new constitutional right to abortion. If you look in the Constitution, however, you will find no general "right to privacy" any more than you will find a right to abortion -- and for good reason: It's not there. The framers assumed no general right to privacy because, to state the obvious, criminal and evil acts can be committed in privacy. Criminal codes are full of such examples -- from murder to incest to rape and other crimes."
- Mark Levin, MEN IN BLACK: HOW THE SUPREME COURT IS DESTROYING AMERICA
"But I do know that it's true that if you wanted to reduce crime, you could, if that were your sole purpose, you could abort every black baby in this country, and your crime rate would go down. (It) would be an impossible, ridiculous, and morally reprehensible thing to do,but the crime rate would go down.""
- William Bennett, 9/28/05
"Would you kill someone for that?...I'm thinking about killing Michael Moore...I could kill him myself, or if I would need to hire somebody to do it,...No, I think I could. I think he could be looking me in the eye, you know, and I could just be choking the life out. Is this wrong?"
- The Glenn Beck Program, May 17, 2005
"It's probably the last football game we'll ever get to see before the United States gets blown up by the Islamists under Obama."
-- Hugh Hewitt on the June 25 broadcast of his nationally syndicated radio show
" Do you believe we are fighting evil people in Iraq? That is how supporters of the war regard the Baathists and the Islamic dissolution persons, the people we are fighting in Iraq. Because if you cannot answer it, or avoid answering it, or answer "no," we know enough about your moral compass to know that further dialogue is unnecessary. In fact, dialogue is impossible. Our understanding of good and evil is so different from yours, there is simply nothing to discuss."
- Dennis Prager
"As the national argument continues to rage regarding the proper social and governmental response to homosexuality, some of the advocates for radical change have unobtrusively but unmistakably shifted their campaign from a request for equal treatment to an assertion of innate superiority. They demand for gay impulses not the same treatment accorded to heterosexual desires, but far greater latitude and acceptance, along with uniquely privileged
social sanction and legal endorsement."
- Michael Medved
"Liberals should not overplay this weapons of mass destruction card, because you want me to tell you the truth? Most of us are not going to care if they don't find these weapons of mass destruction. It's enough for a lot of us to see those kids smiling on that street again."
- Dennis Miller
"I know Jesus Christ died for my sins, and that's all I really need to know."
- Ann Coulter
"We should invade their countries, kill their leaders and convert them to Christianity. We weren't punctilious about locating and punishing only Hitler and his top officers. We carpet-bombed German cities; we killed civilians. That's war. And this is war."
- Ann Coulter
"Conservatives saw the savagery of 9/11 in the attacks and prepared for war; liberals saw the savagery of the 9/11 attacks and wanted to prepare indictments and offer therapy and understanding for our attackers."
- Karl Rove
""The idea that a congressman would be tainted by accepting money from private industry or private sources is essentially a socialist argument."
- Newt Gingrich
"People who claim that sentencing a murderer to "life without the possibility of parole" protects society just as well as the death penalty ignore three things: (1) life without the possibility of parole does not mean life without the possibility of escape or (2) life without the possibility of killing while in prison or (3) life without the possibility of a liberal governor being elected and issuing a pardon."
- Thomas Sowell
"Hitler, like bin Laden and his epigones, was the problem, not us. The only difference is that our grandparents knew that and we don't."
- Victor Davis Hanson
"There are homosexuals in the world, and they should not be excluded based on their sexuality. I draw the line at marriage."
- Shelby Steele
"Torture is an impermissible evil. Except under two circumstances. The first is the ticking time bomb. An innocent's life is at stake. The bad guy you have captured possesses information that could save this life. He refuses to divulge. In such a case, the choice is easy. "
- Charles Krauthammer
"When a right-wing Christian vigilante kills, millions of fingers pull the trigger. When a left-wing Muslim vigilante kills, he kills alone."
- Michelle Malkin
""It's amazing. You can't drink outside and you can't smoke inside. It really makes it hard to keep your business open. There's always someone else with their hand in your pocket."
- Fred Barnes
"That is the true genius of America, a faith in the simple dreams of its people, the insistence on small miracles. That we can say what we think, write what we think, without hearing a sudden knock on the door. That we can have an idea and start our own business without paying a bribe or hiring somebody's son. That we can participate in the political process without fear of retribution, and that our votes will be counted -- or at least, most of the time."
- Barack Obama
"I have seen, the desperation and disorder of the powerless: how it twists the lives of children on the streets of Jakarta or Nairobi in much the same way as it does the lives of children on Chicago's South Side, how narrow the path is for them between humiliation and untrammeled fury, how easily they slip into violence and despair. I know that the response of the powerful to this disorder -- alternating as it does between a dull complacency and, when the disorder spills out of its proscribed confines, a steady, unthinking application of force, of longer prison sentences and more sophisticated military hardware -- is inadequate to the task. I know that the hardening of lines, the embrace of fundamentalism and tribe, dooms us all."
- Barack Obama
[The] issues are never simple. One thing I'm proud of is that very rarely will you hear me simplify the issues."
- Barack Obama
I guess I'll take my prophets false, thanks.

Although I do appreciate you’re posting comments, of recognized persons, with highly opinionated views.
They are not prophets.
o·pin·ion
1. A belief or conclusion held with confidence but not substantiated by positive knowledge or proof:
I at least wanted to recognize your effort and time in gathering together this collection of quotes.
To think these people and they're supporters think they are wise?
Fred Barnes was kind of funny when you think about it.
