Mine: "I stand by all the misstatements that I've made."

Mine: "People that are really very weird can get into sensitive positions and have a tremendous impact on history."

Talk about a contradictio in terminis:

"I am not part of the problem. I am a Republican."

But this one is pretty golden as well... I never knew Republicans were so understanding when it comes to incestuous BDSM-relationships:

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

Speaking to the United Negro College Fund (whose slogan is "A mind is a terrible thing to waste"):

It's a terrible waste to lose your mind, or not to have a mind, it's being very wasteful. How true that is!

Not one he said but was thrown at him

Mars is essentially in the same orbit... Mars is somewhat the same distance from the Sun, which is very important. We have seen pictures where there are canals, we believe, and water. If there is water, that means there is oxygen. If oxygen, that means we can breathe.


and

The Holocaust was an obscene period in our nation's history. I mean in this century's history. But we all lived in this century. I didn't live in this century.

yes.

"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." -- Dan Quayle

But don't forget the Bushquote poem:

I think we all agree, the past is over.
This is still a dangerous world.
It's a world of madmen and uncertainty
and potential mental losses.
Rarely is the question asked
Is our children learning?
Will the highways of the Internet become more few?
How many hands have I shaked?
They misunderestimate me.
I am a pitbull on the pantleg of opportunity.
I know that the human being and the fish can coexist.
Families is where our nation finds hope, where our wings take dream.
Put food on your family!
Knock down the tollbooth!
Vulcanize society!
Make the pie higher! Make the pie higher!
