Insight: “Without seeking, truth cannot be known at all. It can neither be declared from pulpits, nor set down in articles, nor in any wise prepared and sold in packages ready for use. Truth must be ground for every man by itself out of it such, with such help as he can get, indeed, but not without stern labor of his own.” —British author John Ruskin (1819-1900)

Braying Jenny: “[Wi]th every word you speak, with every choice you make, with the way you carry yourself each day, you are rewriting the story of our communities. And that’s a burden that President Obama and I proudly carry every single day in the White House. Because we know that everything we do and say can either confirm the myths about folks like us, or it can change those myths.” —Michelle Obama

The BIG Lie: “My first job in Chicago when I moved after college to work as a community organizer. … I saw the power of faith — a shared belief that every human being, made in the image of God, deserves to live in dignity; that all children, no matter who they are or where they come from or how much money they were born into, ought to have the opportunity to achieve their God-given potential.” —Barack Obama (What about the millions of unborn children sacrificed on the altar of “choice”?)

Village Idiots: “Obama seems to be white inside. There is an obvious racial division in America and it’s exploding and Obama doesn’t ever support the innocent black people who are murdered by white police officers who are never held accountable. You would expect him to be more understanding of what it means to be black. But so far, he hasn’t been.” —British singer/songwriter Steven Patrick Morrissey

And last… “I’m so progressive, that if a tree falls in the woods and no one is there to hear it, I’m still offended.” —Frank Fleming
