I hate the Republicans and everything they stand for...

Dealing with race is about educating white folks.

I don't mind being called a liberal. I just don't really think it's true.

The president and his right-wing Supreme Court think it is 'okay' to have the government take your house if they feel like putting a hotel where your house is.

What I usually do is tell funny stories from the road, many of which are, of course, unprintable. But I don't actually have a joke. I don't tell jokes much. I tell little stories.

What I want to know is why in the world the Democratic party leadership is supporting the president's unilateral attack on Iraq?

I learned that the American people are pretty great people. And they are just poorly served by their leadership, and Washington's very much out of touch with the struggles of ordinary Americans. My hope is that we'll have a Democratic Administration, and then we'll hold their feet to the fire so they start performing for people who put them there.
