Monday Short Cuts

The Gipper: “[A]ny time you and I question the schemes of the do-gooders, we’re denounced as being opposed to their humanitarian goals. It seems impossible to legitimately debate their solutions with the assumption that all of us share the desire to help the less fortunate. They tell us we’re always ‘against,’ never ‘for’ anything.”

You didn’t build that! “It’s time for the wealthiest Americans, whoever you are, as well as corporations and Wall Street to pay your fair share in taxes. You have been successful in this country because of everything this country represents.” —Hillary Clinton

Upright: “America must reject the bigotry of Hillary Clinton, who sees communities of color only as votes, not as human beings worthy of a better future. Hillary Clinton would rather provide a job to a refugee from overseas than to give that job to unemployed African-American youth in cities like Detroit who have become refugees in their own country.” —Donald Trump

For the record: “The truth is she was using [her personal email] for a year before I sent her a memo telling her what I did [during my term as secretary of state]. Her people have been trying to pin it on me.” —Colin Powell on Hillary Clinton blaming him for her private email system

Doh! “Trump wants GOP to court black voters — then slams voting rights for felons.” —CNN headline

And last… “Crass stereotyping has hurt young men, especially some young teens, but the answer is to confront the crass, not to detonate gender norms. Physical weakness is not a virtue. Voluntary weakness is a vice. And, yes, a man has an obligation to be strong.” —David French
