Republicans almost killed me—Cher

Quotes and video from Cher, singer and actress, from President Obama’s inaugural ball

In an interview with cnsnews.com, Cher makes the following statements on President Obama, and the Republican party:

I just think he’s totally the right person at this time in our history.  He brings something more in his spirit than maybe another president could be even with the same intelligence. There’s something about him that brings more with his spirit, and that’s what Americans need right now. Republicans almost killed me. ... You know what? I have so – I try to be charitable and there are some really good Republicans, but I just don’t understand how anyone would want to be a Republican. I just can’t figure it. I don’t understand,” she said. “If you’re poor, if you’re any kind of minority – gay, black, Latino, anything. If you’re not a rich – I don’t know. If you’re not a rich born-again-Christian, I don’t get it.

--Cher

A warning about future terrorist attacks on the United States of America, from former Vice President Dick Cheney

When we get people who are more concerned about reading the rights to an Al Qaeda terrorist than they are with protecting the United States against people who are absolutely committed to do anything they can to kill Americans, then I worry,

When you destroy the middle class and you convince them that they’re better off on welfare …

Rush Limbaugh on what he considers to be Barack Obama’s motivation for his alleged plan to destroy the coal industry

"When you destroy the middle class and you convince them that they’re better off on welfare—that some magical guru is going to handle all their needs—then you control them and own their votes forever, and that’s why Obama wants to bankrupt the coal industry.”

Dick Cheney gives a sobering warning about the consequences of releasing the detainees from the federal facility at Guantanamo

If you release the hard-core Al Qaeda terrorists that are held at Guantanamo, I think they go back into the business of trying to kill more Americans and mount further mass-casualty attacks,” he said. “If you turn ’em loose and they go kill more Americans, who’s responsible for that?

Somali pirates are a ‘Voluntary Coast Guard’?

Some things are just beyond parody, such as Al Sharpton telling his audience that the Somali pirates, who have been seizing ships and are now promising to kill any Americans that they take captive, are ‘voluntary coast guard’ for Somalia.

Obama is and always has been a socialist, and a radical socialist to boot.

Rush Limbaugh on his analysis of Barack Obama’s political philosophy

"Obama is and always has been a socialist, and a radical socialist to boot. And if he does become president with no institution able to put a check on his power, he’s going to have the authority to impose his will and, as he says, fundamentally change the nation. That’s no small thing.”

If it hadn’t been for what we did …

Former Vice President Dick Cheney, defending the Bush Administration’s war on terror

If it hadn’t been for what we did — with respect to the terrorist surveillance program, or enhanced interrogation techniques for high-value detainees, the Patriot Act, and so forth — then we would have been attacked again.  Those policies we put in place, in my opinion, were absolutely crucial to getting us through the last seven-plus years without a major-casualty attack on the U.S.

An alarmist warning on global climate change (formerly known as as global warming) from Steven Chu, President Obama’s energy secretary, who’s an expert on physics.

I don’t think the American public has gripped in its gut what could happen.  We’re looking at a scenario where there’s no more agriculture in California.  I don’t actually see how they can keep their cities going.
