MSNBC’s Chris Matthews: “Russ Feingold wants to censure the President, the Vice President, other administration officials for the way in which they talked us into in Iraq. What do you make of it? Where do you stand on that kind of thing?”

Left-wing filmmaker Michael Moore: “Good idea. I think, it’s something though that, actually they should be lucky just to get censured. Personally, I’d like to see a perp walk coming out of the West Wing of the White House.”

Matthews: “Do you think they’re guilty of war crimes?”

Moore: “Absolutely.”

“Do you worry at all that non-believers may feel excluded and diminished at a time when we’re so divided about so much?”

Rosie O’Donnell: “655,000 Iraqi civilians are dead. Who are the terrorists?”

Elisabeth Hasselbeck: “Who are the terrorists?”

O’Donnell: “655 Iraqis. I’m saying you have to look from, we invaded-”

Hasselbeck: “Wait, who are you calling terrorists?”

O’Donnell: “I’m saying, if you were in Iraq, and another country, the United States, the richest in the world, invaded your country and killed 655,000 of your citizens, what would you call us?”

“Over the past six years we’ve had to add to the American picture: rendition, illegal wiretapping, voter suppression, no habeas corpus, the neglect of our great city New Orleans and the people, an attack on the Constitution and the loss of our best young men and women in a tragic war. And this is a song about things that shouldn’t happen here, happening here. And so right now we plan to do something about it — we plan to sing about it.”

Matt Lauer: “He [Rush Limbaugh] makes a living poking fun at Democrats, but now some think he has gone a little too far in taking on Senator Barack Obama....”

Reporter Michael Okwu: “Weeks before the Imus controversy, Rush Limbaugh started airing this ditty about Senator Barack Obama:”

Song parody: “Barack the Magic Negro lives in D.C.”

Okwu: “Which lead some to wonder, has Limbaugh been getting a free pass?...”

Paul Waldman, Media Matters: “This is basically the radio equivalent of a black-faced, minstrel show. You’re going back to Amos and Andy and all of those, kind of, racist shows in the past.”

Okwu: “For his part, Obama says he doesn’t listen to Limbaugh but says being targeted is part of being a politician....”

Song parody: “Don’t vote the Magic Negro.”

Okwu: “Legitimate political satire or something darker?”

“This is going to result in racial profiling. If, in her America, in Michelle’s America, when you look, ‘Is that Hispanic guy an illegal or is he legal?’ It reminds me so much of when they used to pull down the pants of Jews to see if they were circumcised or not. It is, it is so, so pathetic. It’s so un-American....I want you to know, ladies and gentlemen, that what they are doing is using the police force of the United States to break up families and sow horror and pain.”

Senator Barack Obama: “Let’s roll back the Bush tax cuts on the wealthiest Americans, let’s make certain that those resources go to the people who need it....We’re not going to solve it by pretending that issues of poverty and struggle among working families are just going to go away magically because the stock market is going up.”

Moderator Chris Matthews: “So much of what you say just grabs people like me, because it sounds like Bobby Kennedy.”

“Today they gathered by the thousands at American University, sensing a moment of history. John F. Kennedy gave the commencement address here five months before he was shot. And today the audacity of hope had its rendezvous with destiny. The Kennedy clan anointed Barack Obama a son of Camelot.”

Cynthia McFadden: “Last week the campaign launched and effort to showcase those people — friends, constituents, including many of them in a new Web site called ‘The Hillary I Know.’”

Woman in video: “The Hillary that I know is a compassionate woman.”

Man in video: “The Hillary I know saved my life.”...

McFadden: “As I looked at it, it’s terribly sweet in so many ways, and yet, it sort of has this Sally Field quality to it. You know, ‘They like me, they really like me.’ And I wonder if there’s not a double standard? I don’t see the guys doing it. Are you judged differently, do you think, on the personal level?”

“There he [Bill Clinton] goes again. The man often called the most gifted politician of his generation is once again at the center of American politics, taking over the 2008 Democratic campaign. And he’s clearly loving every minute of it....He lectures and jokes around and feels your pain and implores you to believe....It’s so unprecedented, this personal and political partnership, so fraught with history and Baby Boomer melodrama. They have already made history, and they are out to do it again, together, through it all.”
