“Stupid Quotes”
13 Dec 2021
“[W]e’re building back better together! And building back greener! And building back fairer! And, er, building back more equal! And uh, how shall I — and in a more gender-neutral, and perhaps a more feminine way! How about that?” — Boris Johnson, excited by his own description of the G7 consensus, video via Twitter
What is “a more feminine way” of building? Bigger kitchens? Better laundry rooms for ironing?
“[I]f we want to reduce the number of people in our jails, the answer is to stop building more of them.” — Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D, NY), video via Twitter
Voilà. The feminine way of building.
“CO2 Reaches Its Highest Level in More than 4 Million Years: As predicted, covid-related production slowdowns had almost no effect on the rise of carbon dioxide.” — Bloomberg
So, over 4 million years ago, CO2 was this high. The planet survived. And flourished. Hmm.
“You know, I still feel like I need to wear a mask when I go outside. I just have that feeling.” — Cher, on msnbc
No argument there.

“Real terms” don’t fill the tanks.
“The reality is we have a sharp partisan divide in this country. And that divide is largely over reality.” — Dan Rather, on Twitter
Before you drone on about what the reality is, Kenneth, you still need to tell us what the frequency is.
“If you don’t do something about Alzheimer’s in American [sic], every single solitary hospital bed that exists in America, the nurses can tell you, every single one, will be occupied in the next 15 years in an Alzheimer’s patient. Every one.” — Joe Biden, video via Twitter
Try aoc’s method. Stop building hospitals.

If only everyone else could.
“And uh, we, I’ve said before and I apologize for repea —oh, I didn’t, Jake Sullivan [garbled] my national security advisor. I’m leaving out a lot of people here, I apologize, I’m going to get in trouble. But, anyway, we’ll get back to that. But um, uh, we, um, uh, you know, there’s a lot that, uh, that is, is, is, is, is happening.” — Joe Biden, remarks to European leaders in Brussels, as media celebrated his brilliant performance on the world stage, video via Twitter
Paging Doctor Jill. He’s in trouble again.
“I really do not believe that it is hyperbole to say that Joe Biden returns from this trip as the clear and the consensus leader of the free world.” — Jake Sullivan, Biden national security advisor, quoted at Breitbart
You’re right. It’s not hyperbole. It’s BS on steroids.
“Joe, pay attention!” — Jill Biden, during her remarks to U.S. troops stationed in the UK as Biden chatted with people behind him, People
Just give him someone’s hair to sniff.
“Joe Biden’s Message to Vladimir Putin? The Adults Are Back in Charge.” — Chris Cillizza, cnn
Joe read that message off his note cards.
“Biden’s preferred lunch is a soup and a salad — usually a chopped salad with grilled chicken — and he is partial to orange Gatorade and Coke Zero. Offsetting the low-calorie diet, he has a well-known penchant for sweets, including chocolate chip ice cream… Biden has stocked the outer Oval Office with saltwater taffy … and his favorite chocolate chip cookies… ‘He has the tastes of a five-year-old,’ a longtime Biden advisor quipped.” — “Inside Biden’s Day,” in The Washington Post
No investigation into whether Joe and his guests get equal scoops of ice cream?
“It was a dazzling afternoon for tea at Windsor Castle. Queen Elizabeth II hosting President Joe Biden and First Lady Dr. Jill Biden at Windsor… The pageantry fit for a queen, or in this case, a President… This time [as opposed to Trump], no obvious hiccups.” — Andrea Mitchell, swooning over Biden, nbc
Other than Jill having to fetch Biden when he wandered off into a random café.

Okay.
“[T]his theme, ‘America’s back,’ now has a practical face. And that’s Biden. He’s calm… America’s strong, our economy is growing like gangbusters, we vaccinated this huge percentage of our population. He is the strong leader of this alliance and showed it.” — David Ignatius, Washington Post editor, on msnbc
The only thing missing in this suck-up reporting is disrobing fantasies.
“He [Biden] was comfortable in that moment, taking off his jacket, answering these questions from top foreign policy reporters in the audience… Wolf, as we assess this trip, this is why Joe Biden ran for President.” — Jeff Zeleny, reporter, on cnn
How was the crease in his pants?
“Traveling across Europe for the past week, Biden found his reputation as a foreign policy wiseman preceded him… It was evident at nearly every stop along the way that … Biden was at last in his comfort zone. He carried himself with a seasoned air of confidence that new Presidents seldom possess, a fluidity on the world stage that was among his biggest calling cards in his race for the White House.” — Kevin Liptak and Jeff Zeleny, cnn
Fluidity? They have Depends for that.
“[M]aybe you can come up with a better week in American diplomacy overseas over the past 20 years of the 21st century? I’ve been trying to figure it out over the past 12 hours. I can’t think of a more successful diplomatic trip in the 21st century than this one…” — Joe Scarborough, msnbc
It rivals Obama’s world apology tour?
“You know, these moments are about moments, and I’ll tell you one moment I noticed there in the Biden-Putin interaction. The handshake. Biden looked Putin in the eye with a smile, Putin looked away… [I]t’s about how you project strength, and that was a notable moment…” — Jim Sciutto, chief national security correspondent, to Wolf Blitzer, who also celebrated the “significant handshake,” cnn
Did ya notice the Russian military making moves to threaten the West? No? Amazing how you could have missed that.
“Biden looked Putin in the eyes, Putin immediately looked away.” — Jim Sciutto, continuing his Biden suck-up on Twitter
Boredom. Vlad already got everything he wanted from Joe on the pipelines and Ukraine military aid.
“Biden says he gave Putin a list of 16 things that are off-limits for cyber attacks on critical infrastructure.”— Jennifer Jacobs, White House reporter for Bloomberg, on Twitter
Biden just identified Putin’s next targets. Nice going.

Irregular? They have milk of magnesia for that.
