  4. “This other side, I don’t know how they’ve been bamboozling folks into thinking they are the responsible, fiscally disciplined party. They run up these wild debts and then when we take over we got to clean it up. And they point and say, look how irresponsible they are. Look at the facts! Look at the numbers!”

  8. “Republicans were only more permissive than Democrats and independents on three measures and they all had to do with the killing of people and animals — the death penalty, buying and wearing clothing made of animal fur and medical testing on animals. Interpret that as you will.”

  18. “The Republican position that tends to prevail in these hot primaries was expressed by the gentleman who beat Senator Lugar, who said, I’m just against compromise. We need to stop it. It’s weak, it’s foolish, our views are irreconcilable, we have to force the American people to choose which one of us is right. If that prevails we’re toast. We’ll look like a bushly country because one party, our party, the Democrats, will look like we’re hanging on to the status quo — our budget will be — we can balance it better than they can, but it’ll be so much on the baby boom generation and on healthcare delivery systems that haven’t been modernized that we will be holding on to the past too much and there budget will be in la-la land because it will defy arithmetic.”

    — President Clinton

Shep played the clip of Obama’s statement that was aired on ABC, then declared: ”the President of the United States, now in the 21st century.” Then while discussing the clip with reporter Brett Bair asked if the GOP could campaign on the issue ”while sitting very firmly, without much question, on the wrong side of history on it.”
