On Clinton's Win in New Hampshire

Basically the gals woke up next to this good looking guy, Obama, and thought, "Well, that was a lot of fun last night, but is he going to marry me?" And then they went home to mother's. - PJ O'Rourke

On the Surge

This was suggested to George Bush in 2003. In fact, the smarter people in his administration said to do just that. "We need more boots on the ground. We need more security." But because he's stubborn and stupid, he said, "No, let's do it Rumsfeld's way. Let's do it the light way." So it took him five years to come around to what should have been done five years ago. And while he was learning on the job, people paid for that in blood. - Bill Maher

On the Media

I'm out there, I'm one of them. They have this idea about what the president looks like. And if anybody deviates from that plan, they hammer the shit out of him until he's no longer a viable candidate. - Matt Taibbi

On the Election Process

I think they should do it like in ancient Athens... In ancient Athens, they used to have a white pebble and a black pebble. And it would work very well in this election. - Bill Maher
