Thursday Short Cuts

Notable quotables from Thomas Sowell, David Limbaugh, Kamala Harris, and more.

For the Record

“If we ever allow morality or law to become just a question of whose ox is gored, then we will have taken a fatal step toward national suicide. We can survive lapses into hypocrisy, but we cannot survive making hypocrisy a ruling principle.” —Thomas Sowell

“I have no sympathy for this supposed epiphany among Democrats and the media that Biden is incompetent. Every honest person recognized it during the 2020 campaign and the Democrats and media pro-actively covered it up. The only thing that’s changed is their polling nightmare.” —David Limbaugh

A Broken Clock Is Right Twice a Day

“WOMEN OF THE WORLD! We are being stripped of our rights over our bodies, our lives and even of our name! They don’t call us ‘women’ anymore; they call us ‘birthing people’ or ‘menstruators’, and even ‘people with vaginas’! Don’t let them erase you!” —actress Bette Midler

“I will say this, and everybody is going to hate me, but, as a woman, just because you go change your parts doesn’t make you a woman. Sorry. I know that for a fact.” —singer Macy Gray

Veep Thoughts With Kamala

“We got to take this stuff seriously, as seriously as you are — because you have been forced to have to take it seriously.” —Vice President Kamala Harris

“We’re working on bringing down basically the cost of what life requires for people.” —Kamala Harris

The BIG Lie

“The migration that is occurring throughout the hemisphere is reflective of the economic downturn. Increase in violence throughout the region. The result of a COVID-19 pandemic. The results of climate change.” —DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas (“The border crisis wasn’t caused by the economy. It wasn’t caused by the pandemic. And it certainly wasn’t caused by climate change. This is representative of a larger problem with the Biden Administration. They need to stop pointing fingers and start solving problems.” —Congressman Chris Stewart)

Non Compos Mentis Awards

“DeSantis is engaged in one of the most alarming assaults on free speech and academic freedom since the dark days of McCarthyism in the 1950s, when Nixon rose to power. His actions may not be as blatant as inciting a mob to attack Congress, but his record reveals a troubling pattern of authoritarianism and vindictiveness that would be extremely dangerous in the Oval Office. Just because DeSantis is smarter than Trump doesn’t mean that he is any less dangerous. In fact, he might be an even bigger threat for that very reason.” —Washington Post columnist Max Boot

“You hear people talking about, you know, a recession coming. Bring it on.” —Kansas Governor Laura Kelly

And Last…

“Biden’s DOJ is suing Arizona for requiring proof of citizenship to vote. Biden couldn’t care less about the crime wave, record overdoses, or the spike in murders. But a citizenship requirement? Top priority for DOJ. You can’t make this up.” —Senator Tom Cotton
