Who remembers Dan Quayle?
Permalink  

We were talking about Dan Quayle tonight and I decided to check online for some of his verbal blunders!

I am not part of the problem. I am a Republican.

The American people would not want to know of any misquotes that Dan Quayle may or may not make.

What a waste it is to lose one's mind. Or not to have a mind is being very wasteful. How true that is.

When I have been asked during these last weeks who caused the riots and the killing in L.A., my answer has been direct and simple: Who is to blame for the riots? The rioters are to blame. Who is to blame for the killings? The killers are to blame.

One word sums up probably the responsibility of any vice president, and that one word is 'to be prepared'.

Illegitimacy is something we should talk about in terms of not having it.

I believe we are on an irreversible trend toward more freedom and democracy - but that could change.

Dan Quayle, 5/22/89
Mars is essentially in the same orbit... Mars is somewhat the same distance from the Sun, which is very important. We have seen pictures where there are canals, we believe, and water. If there is water, that means there is oxygen. If oxygen, that means we can breathe.

The Holocaust was an obscene period in our nation's history. I mean in this century's history. But we all lived in this century. I didn't live in this century.

The more I follow politics, the more I realize that Zaphod Beeblebrox was telling the truth.

The spooky thing is that I was telling my daughter about Dan Quayle on Saturday. Remember when he was at a televised spelling bee where somebody had just spelled "potato" correctly, then Dan put an "e" on the end as if he were correcting it?

I can still hear Dana Carvey on SNL playing George H. Bush saying; "A thousand points of light; Dan Quayle, still gaining acceptance."

Yes, Carl, he is.

I am still shaking my head when I think of all the politicians in this country receiving pensions for life.

Cripes, we should all be so freaking lucky, eh?
