“I have a straight-up question. How in the world can I not be TIME\u2019s Man of the Year?”<\/p>\n

“I\u2019m actually thinking of suspending the term ‘El Rushbo\u2019 today because a lot of illegal immigrants in New York might be rather bothered. Well, Eliot Spitzer has angrily withdrawn his plan to give driver\u2019s licenses to them.”<\/p>\n

“Liberals\u2019 arrogance and elitism will not permit them to accept the fact that their ideas are no good. There has to be somebody to blame, and who is it? It\u2019s always me.”<\/p>\n

“Mr. Snerdley just asked me over the IFB, ‘Is there anybody upset over this writer\u2019s strike?\u2019 It\u2019s an interesting question, but I don\u2019t see the public marching outside David Letterman\u2019s or Jon Stewart\u2019s studio demanding fresh shows.”<\/p>\n

“I\u2019m a very humble person; I don\u2019t even think of my power. I don\u2019t come in here consciously wielding it, and I don\u2019t ever consider it to exist. I just do what I love.”<\/p>\n

“In every instance in this illegal immigration business — be it the amnesty bill this past summer, the wet DREAM Act, or this driver\u2019s licenses sham for illegals — where the informed people of this country made a difference, it shows.”<\/p>\n

“What\u2019s wrong with Bear fans? Chicago is a great sports town. The fans show up and support losers all the time.”<\/p>\n

“Read George Washington\u2019s first Thanksgiving proclamation. I defy a liberal to do it and stay sane. I mean, it must mention ‘God\u2019 in it 30 times. That alone would put them off.”<\/p>\n

“Al-Qaeda has been run out of Baghdad. We have Petraeus representatives going to sit down with Mookie al-Sadr. The word ‘victory\u2019 is starting to show up on certain people\u2019s lips. This scares Harry Reid all to hell.”<\/p>\n

“It started on October 30th, and today is November 14th. So just over two weeks, and the driver\u2019s licenses for illegals issue is dead. And once again, it\u2019s because of me. Ain\u2019t it great?”<\/p>\n
