Thursday Short Cuts

“Willful, gleeful stupidity is the primary thing preventing us from having any kind of fruitful dialogue.” —Matt Walsh

For the record: “You ready for this? This is the latest from Rasmussen public polling surveys. Black voters are nearly twice as likely, 28%, to say young black Americans are better off now than they were in the closing year of Obama’s presidency. … That could be big, folks.” —Rush Limbaugh

A blind squirrel finds a nut: “We had never heard anything like this about a president in the White House, in the Oval Office, in the United States. And I believe that [Bill Clinton] set the bar very low.” —Joy Behar

Regrets — she’s had a few (but only a few): “A lot of people were offended and angry that I used an epithet to describe the president’s daughter last week. It is a word I have used on the show many times trying to reclaim it. This time I used it as an insult. I crossed the line. I regret it and I do apologize for that. … Many men were also offended by my use of the word. I do not care about that.” —Samantha Bee

Greasing the political skids: “It concerns me that so many voices within the Democratic Party are going so far to the left. I say to myself, ‘How are we going to pay for these things?’ in terms of things like single payer [and] people espousing the fact that the government is going to give everyone a job. I don’t think that’s realistic.” —outgoing Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz

Midterm forgiveness-seeking: “[Backing Hillary Clinton] was a mistake. It was a mistake politically.” —Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV)

Race bait: “The national anthem is problematic in and of itself.” —CNN’s Angela Rye

Non Compos Mentis: “The Trump Administration policy of taking children from their families is immoral. We as a nation are better than this.” —former Planned Parenthood president Cecile Richards, who oversaw the killing of nearly four million children

And last… “The problem with discourse in our society is not that it is hostile or partisan or divisive. The problem is that it is so fantastically stupid. Willful, gleeful stupidity is the primary thing preventing us from having any kind of fruitful dialogue.” —Matt Walsh
