Who said this? "If you aren't completely appalled...."
"If you aren't completely appalled, then you haven't been paying attention."

Who said this? I've only been able to track down bumperstickers from the last election cycle, but no other attribution. I thought maybe a late night DUer will know the answer. :)

5. It surely does sound like a Molly to me also...
I'm pretty sure I saw her make that remark at a conference via C-span not too long ago.

I don't remember it being a Dean quote.

9. Thanks, guys.
I'll probably have to go with "Anonymous" on this one, and assume it was just from a protest sign.

If someone could find a transcript or a link to a quote that would be even better. I've tapped out my resources.
