The Democrat candidates dropped by Chicago over the weekend to swap a little spit with Jesse Jackson. It was the usual bluster and blather, but here are some memorable quotes:
"When I'm president, we'll do executive orders to overcome any wrong thing the Supreme Court does tomorrow or any other day," Gephardt said.A true student of the Constitution! He ought to get together with Gen. Wesley Clark who thinks "this country was founded on a principle of progressive taxation".
But leave it to the Rev. Al to come up with the best line:
"Clarence Thomas is my color, but he's not my kind."The nation is profoundly grateful for that every day.
