That's what I get for not using a grammar checker:

"The case that the deniers of human causes are trying to make would be irrelevant if it wasn't important to understand that such people may have emotional problems or character defects which are a danger to the rest of us."

Spill da beans, you were a speech writer for Dan Quayle, huh?

(One of the funniest things I've ever seen was a real book, "The Wit and Wisdom of Vice President James Danforth "Dan" Quayle." I was stunned, I had to look...it was a book of completely blank pages.)

The pre-checked version could easily be from a mind which thought up these gems...

 * "I have made good judgments in the Past. I have made good judgments in the Future."

 * "Republicans understand the importance of bondage between a mother and child."

 * "We have a firm commitment to NATO, we are a *part* of NATO. We have a firm commitment to Europe. We are a *part* of Europe. "

 * "We're going to have the best-educated American people in the world."

and * "I stand by all the misstatements that I've made."


From Quayle to Bush to Palin...they should change their initials from GOP to FOYB (Friends of Yogi Berra)...

You'll have to forgive me. (none / 0)
Even Napoleon had his Watergate.  Besides, I didn't really say what I said.  And comparing me with Quayle was unnecessary.  I swear, half the lies you tell about me aren't true.  But if you do spot something that I could have said better, I wouldn't mind if you told me.  I don't want to make the wrong mistake.

Look, I really don't think it's necessary for you to insult the memory of such an outstanding guy as Yogi Berra by lumping him in with those jerks Quayle, Bush, and Palin.  He was one of the best catchers there ever was, and a great hitter, too.  None of those losers were ever good at anything.

(Forgive him, Yogi.  I don't think he knows baseball very well.)

" I swear, half the lies you tell about me aren't true."

I don't agree with that because all the lies he tells about you are not true. This amounts maybe to about half the things he says about you.;)

You're still assuming... (none / 0)
...that I said what I said.  I've already explained that I didn't.

(We miss you, Yogi.)
