Democratic power is the only voice most citizens have.
‐‐ Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero
Democratic principles are the result of equality of condition.
‐‐ Mercy Otis Warren
Democratic priorities remain clear: to provide a tax cut for working families, to promote policies that produce jobs and economic growth, and to assist millions of our fellow Americans who have lost their jobs through no fault of their own.
‐‐ Nancy Pelosi
Democratic self-government has manifestly brought benefits to India, Japan, Norway, Switzerland, South Africa, South Korea, and scores of nations all making their way in the world.
‐‐ Michael Gove
Democratic societies are unfit for the publication of such thunderous revelations as I am in the habit of making.
‐‐ Salvador Dali
Democratic societies can no longer give religious fanatics a free hand to abuse and murder non believers. Such action betrays contempt for the basic human rights which animate any democracy with meaning.
‐‐ Armstrong Williams
Democratic societies need a strong media, and WikiLeaks is part of that media.
‐‐ Julian Assange
Democratic systems based on the concept of a homogeneous nation such as England are very definitely not applicable to heterogeneous countries such as India, and this simple fact is the root cause of India's constitutional ills.
‐‐ Muhammad Ali Jinnah
Democrats always assure us that deterrence will work, but when the time comes to deter, they're against it.
‐‐ Ann Coulter
Democrats always like to brag that their guys are smarter than the opponents and Republicans always like to brag that their guys are more moral than the opponents. But if you're looking for morals in politics you're looking for bananas in the cheese department.
‐‐ Harry Shearer
Democrats and all public servants just need to be honest. If we have schools that aren't working ... we need to face the facts and fix them.
‐‐ Gina Raimondo
Democrats and Republicans alike support our military personnel.

Democrats are committed to mapping a new direction in Iraq, and we will work with the President and the new Defense Secretary to ensure that the will of the American people guides our future actions.
‐‐ Jim Clyburn
Democrats are dumb and Republicans are stupid, but the difference between dumb and stupid is dumb isn't funny. Dumb is when you say something and the whole room goes, 'What did he say?'
‐‐ Lewis Black
Democrats are fighting fire with fire. Our principled stance on Medicare and Social Security is absolutely no different than the Republicans' stance on no revenue increases without cuts.
‐‐ Judy Chu
Democrats are fighting for a new direction that includes protecting Social Security as well as making healthcare affordable, bringing down the high cost of gasoline, and making higher education more accessible for all Americans.
‐‐ Jim Clyburn
Democrats are going to proudly run on the fact that we turned the economy around. It was our policies under President Obama's leadership through the Recovery Act, through investing in the automobile industry.
‐‐ Debbie Wasserman Schultz
Democrats are like a big tortoise that's on its back and can't get up; you can't make jokes about that.
‐‐ Lewis Black
Democrats are not about to nominate anyone who backs the tax cut, and Americans are not going to elect anyone who favors a tax increase.
‐‐ Dick Morris
Democrats are people who raise your taxes and spend your money on weird stuff. They steal your guns, and they spit on your faith. And because the Democratic Party was taken over by the aggressive secular guys, they became hostile not just to conservative Catholics and evangelical Christians, but Orthodox Jews and Muslims and Mormons.
‐‐ Grover Norquist
Democrats are so spineless, so afraid to go against the tide... but dissension is the greatest form of patriotism.
‐‐ Jesse Ventura
Democrats' attack on the Republican majority leader is nothing but a coordinated agenda to stop an effective leader from accomplishing the people's business.
‐‐ Bill Shuster
Democrats believe in reigniting the American dream by removing barriers to success and building ladders of opportunity for all, so everyone can succeed.
‐‐ Nancy Pelosi
Democrats believe that government should reflect the sense of community that Americans demonstrated after Katrina - the sense of community that has defined and united America throughout its history.

Democrats believe they can win at the ballot box by obstructing, and they would rather win the next election than move America forward.
‐‐ Virginia Foxx
Democrats believe we must create jobs, not protect the special interests; build the economy from the middle out, not the top down.
‐‐ Nancy Pelosi
Democrats believe we must have comprehensive health care reform that includes giving the federal government authority to negotiate lower prices with drug companies.
‐‐ Jim Clyburn
Democrats can neither control nor predict whether our GOP counterparts are really ready to play chicken with the U.S. economy. But we can assure the American people that our party takes the nation's faith and credit seriously.
‐‐ Peter Welch
Democrats can't get elected unless things get worse - and things won't get worse unless they get elected.
‐‐ Jeane Kirkpatrick
Democrats cannot win elections without capturing the votes of independent-minded swing voters. And that is where writing off the Tea Party as a bunch of racist kooks becomes self-destructive. The Tea Party outrage over health-care reform, deficit spending and entitlements run amok is no fringe concern.
‐‐ Juan Williams
Democrats couldn't care less if people in Indiana hate them. But if Europeans curl their lips, liberals can't look at themselves in the mirror.
‐‐ Ann Coulter
Democrats' definition of 'rich' - always seems to be set just above whatever the salary happens to be for a member of Congress. Perhaps that says it all.
‐‐ Steve Steckler
Democrats did not lose control of the Senate because African Americans did not vote. Actually, as supported by preliminary exit poll data, the complete opposite is the case. African Americans increased as a proportion of the electorate in 2014 over 2010.
‐‐ Marcia Fudge
Democrats do best in urban centers, Republicans in outer suburbs and rural areas.
‐‐ Thomas E. Mann
Democrats don't relate to middle-class people.
‐‐ Chuck Schumer
Democrats embrace The Affordable Care Act. We're very proud of it.
‐‐ Nancy Pelosi
Democrats fought to get health insurance for more Americans. Democrats fought for a strong consumer agency so big banks can't cheat people. We fought, we won, and we improved the lives of millions of people - thank you, President Obama!
‐‐ Elizabeth Warren
Democrats get credit for money coming into the state, but I do a lot of heavy lifting.
‐‐ Rodney Frelinghuysen
Democrats hate America being a world power because world power gives power to the nation instead of to Democrats.
‐‐ P. J. O'Rourke
Democrats hate Democrats most of all.
‐‐ P. J. O'Rourke
Democrats hate stay-at-home spouses, no matter what gender or gender preference.
‐‐ P. J. O'Rourke
Democrats hate success.
‐‐ P. J. O'Rourke
Democrats have a history of backing away, backing down.
‐‐ Michael Moore
Democrats have a long history of utilizing the threat of a potential Ebola outbreak to request massive federal funds while attacking Republicans for expressing skepticism over their funding schemes.
‐‐ Aaron Klein
Democrats have always historically referred to our families as working families, and I have sort of changed that moniker. I think what we have is a nation of worried families - families that are concerned about job security, families who thought their pensions were secure and now have questions.
‐‐ Tom Vilsack
Democrats have laid out a program that, if adopted, would make us independent of Middle Eastern oil in ten years, and create a new economy especially for those in rural America. Our program invests in clean energy alternatives and provides energy assistance for those in need.
