Do you think the quote I cited is incorrect?

Yes, I'm pretty sure that Bart Simpson said "you're damned if you do, you're damned if you don't."

Then Bart Simpson plagarized Eleanor Roosevelt:

Quote
Do what you feel in your heart to be right- for you'll be criticized anyway. You'll be damned if you do, and damned if you don't.
Eleanor Roosevelt

Unlike some of the quotes cited in this thread, the quote in which Bill Clinton denies having had sexual relations with Monica Lewinsky is easily found in various news articles from various widely read news sources. Do you know why the quote shows up in various news articles from various widely read news sources? Because the quote, unlike some of the fabricated quotes in this thread, is real and belongs to Bill Clinton.

Thank you for allowing me this opportunity to demonstrate the problem with the methodology some here are using to compile a list of quotes.

Here we go again.

When you search for a quote attributed to a politician and the quote shows up only on forums, blogs, humor sites, and highly partisan political sites, that should serve as a warning that the quote is probably a fabrication.

You mean like this quote?

"There is not a living soul in the world who thought Osama bin Laden had anything to do with Black Hawk down."

This despite the fact OBL used this incident as his first "victory" against America.

The quote you posted is a partial quote, but what you posted can be attributed to Bill Clinton.

Why don't you kiss my partial ass?  The fact is he said it, and that along with his "no controlling authority" BS (I'll link the sound file if you wish) shows beyond a doubt he was either clueless when it came to terrorists and OBL specifically or just didn't give a rat's ass.

Hey, I know the quote is a partial quote, but the fact is that you said it!

Now do you see why you shouldn't post partial quotes?

Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery.
