Burt Prelutsky Quotes
These self-anointed intellectuals are people who think that those who believe in God and Jesus Christ, those who 'cling to their guns and their religion,' are a lower form of animal life, while they, themselves, have no problem whatever accepting Obama as a messiah and, in the past, deifying the likes of Jimmy Carter and Bill Clinton.

When, on the other hand, you kneel to a left-wing politician, you're merely emulating Monica Lewinsky.
