Non Compos Mentis: “You can think about religion simply as a virtual reality game. You invent rules that don’t really exist, but you believe these rules, and for your entire life you try to follow the rules. If you’re Christian, then if you do this, you get points. If you sin, you lose points. If by the time you finish the game when you’re dead, you gained enough points, you get up to the next level. You go to heaven.” —historian Yuval Noah Harari (Grace is not contingent on “gaining points.”)

Braying Jackass: “In Los Angeles, we don’t demonize our hard-working neighbors just because they speak a different language or come from a different country. That’s un-American.” —Democrat Mayor Eric Garcetti offering sanctuary to anyone who wants to clean house or landscape for LA’s rich and famous

Braying Jenny: “I oppose this president; I do not honor this president; I do not respect this president… When we fight against this president, and we point out how dangerous he is for this society and for this country, we’re fighting for the democracy. We’re fighting for America. We’re saying to those who say they’re patriotic but they’ve turned a blind eye to the destruction that he’s about to cause this country, ‘You’re not nearly as patriotic as we are.’"—Maxine Waters

Alpha Jackass: "Uday and Qusay working for Saddam Hussein — you couldn’t go to a restaurant and have eye contact with those guys without getting killed. These people are really powerful. Imagine getting into a fight in the office with Jared or Ivanka. They have enormous power, and they’re always gonna be there.” —Chris Matthews

The BIG Lie: “President Trump and Paul Ryan tried to mercilessly strip health insurance from 24 million Americans.” —Debbie Wasserman Schultz (How is giving people options stripping them of health care?)

And last… “Notice how this [health care debacle] turns the big narrative of the last election on its head. We were supposed to support Trump because he was the guy who was finally going to break the corrupt Republican ‘establishment.’ Now he’s the guy launching tweet-storms on behalf of the establishment and against the House Freedom Caucus — the guys who actually did break the GOP establishment.” —Robert Tracinski
