10) Harriet Miers (on her hero)
You are the best governor ever. Keep up the great work. Texas is blessed.

9) Senator Bill Frist (On something that's none of his business)
She certainly seems to respond to visual stimuli. [The autopsy later revealed Terry Schiavo was blind.]

8) Bill Bennett (on crime statistics and genocide)
I do know that it's true that if you wanted to reduce crime, you could, if that were your sole purpose, you could abort every black baby in this country, and your crime rate would go down.

7) Tom Delay (on alternative vacations)
Now tell me the truth boys, is this kind of fun? (to three young hurricane evacuees)

6) Pat Robertson (on damnation)
I’d like to say to the good citizens of Dover. If there is a disaster in your area, don’t turn to God, you just rejected Him from your city. And don’t wonder why He hasn’t helped you when problems begin, if they begin. I’m not saying they will, but if they do, just remember, you just voted God out of your city. And if that’s the case, don’t ask for His help because he might not be there.

5) Tom Cruise (on whatever his dealer sold him that day)
You don't know the history of psychiatry, I do...there is no such thing as a chemical imbalance...Matt, Matt, Matt, Matt, you're glib.

4) Bill O'Reilly (on acceptable losses)
If Al Qaeda comes in here and blows you up, we're not going to do anything about it. We're going to say, look, every other place in America is off limits to you, except San Francisco. You want to blow up the Coit Tower? Go ahead. (After San Francisco voted to keep military recruiters off school campuses)

3) Howard Dean (On why we might be lucky he didn't get elected)
You think people can work all day and then pick up their kids at child care or wherever and get home and still manage to sandwich in an eight-hour vote? Well Republicans, I guess can do that. Because a lot of them have never made an honest living in their lives. (I can be fair and balanced, too)

2) Barbara Bush (on silver linings)
What I'm hearing which is sort of scary is that they all want to stay in Texas. Everybody is so overwhelmed by the hospitality. And so many of the people in the arena here, you know, were underprivileged anyway so this (chuckle), this is working very well for them.

1) George W. Bush (on performance evaluation)
Brownie, you're doing a heck of a job. (or, maybe we misunderstood)

Honorable Mentions:
Ann Coulter: (on students protesting her appearance) I love to engage in repartee with people who are stupider than I am.
Dick Cheney: (on the war in Iraq) I think they're in the last throes, if you will, of the insurgency.
DB Bob Novak: (on Jame Carvilles' opinion) Well, I think that's bullshit and I hate that...stomp, stomp, stomp, stomp.
Wolf Blitzer: (on New Orleans) so poor...so black.
Kansas School Board: (on Intelligent Design) Creationism: 6, Common Sense: 4
