You fight to defend a lover, not to win one. If you do, it isn't love.

Somebody once said I had a face for radio and a voice for newspapers.

I'm liberal, but I watch the three majors. Obviously I watch MSNBC, also CNN and Fox, which is what I would call ridiculously to the right.

I play a crazy talk-show host, but that's not me. It's like an actor playing a role.

I'm a happy guy, but if I'm in a rare dark mood, I won't go out because I don't want to be horrible to people.

I watch sports and cable news. I’m a political junkie, so that’s my interest.

I opposed the war in Iraq because I did not believe it was in our national security interest, and I still don't. What we [America] did was akin to taking a baseball bat to a beehive. Our primary security threat right now is terrorism - and by doing what we did in Iraq, we've managed to alienate a good part of the world and most of the allies whose intelligence and other help we need to combat and defeat terrorism.
