It's easier to put on slippers than to carpet the whole world.

Liberals don't hate America. We love America more than Ann Coulter does. I love it enough to engage my readers honestly.

I once asked the most fabulous couple I know, Madonna and Guy Ritchie, how they kept things fresh despite having been married for almost seven months. 'It's a job, Al,' Guy told me. 'We work at it every day.'

I’ve never understood why we would want to deny all the joys - and the challenges - of marriage to anyone. Which is why I think any loving, committed couple — gay or straight — should be able to get married.

Anybody who deliberately propagandizes with lies should be held up to scorn and ridicule.

I want to reclaim 'liberal.' I'm a liberal, and I think most Americans are liberals.

Bob Dole used to be really funny. Barney Frank can be kind of funny. Bob Kerrey has a good sense of humor.
