The Unofficial John Fuglesang Appreciation Page - Quotes






These quotes were taken from an episode of Politically Incorrect which aired on June 10th, 1999.



Jerry Falwell:(on sex equaling conception)"My wife and I can tell you, after 3 births and 41 years of marrige, every action is not a conception."
Cheers here for Jerry Falwell's swinging sex life, at which point Mr. Fugelsang jumps from his chair to shake Mr. Falwell's hand, saying:
"I knew you were down, baby, I knew you were down! Oh, I had you pegged so wrong. I knew you were a player. I knew it."

Jerry Falwell: "Now you put me on your show falling down, going up..."
John Fugelsang: "Well you did fall well, Falwell, so I must commend you for that."

Bill Maher: "And that's the problem of George Bush jr."
John Fugelsang: "Not jr., W. He's his own man."
Bill Maher: "Little Bush."
John Fugelsang: "Little Bush...shrub."

On the ever-shifting 'stands' Bush jr. and Mrs. Dole were (are) taking on the issues: "All things to all people, what a shock from a Bush and a Dole."

To the Rev. Falwell: "I know you're pro life. But you also support the death penalty, so I guess you're pro-some life."

"Harry Truman, in 1948, signed an Executive order desegregating the military, saying, "That's it. Executive order. This is the new law. You don't like, it deal with it." I find it curious that your friends W. and Liddy have a hard time picking their next exact stance on this issue. And it seems to me that the normal tradition, when running for the Republican nomination, is to go as far to the right as possible to get your nomniation, then to go to the center and confuse everybody."

"What rubbish. George Bush sr. was completely pro-woman's reproductive freedom until the day that Ronald Reagan asked him to be his running mate. And suddenly he forgot about being pro-choice, whatever that means."

On weather or not a girl harrased at school suffered "sexual harrasement:"
Heather: "Everyone wants to jump on the sexual harrasement bandwagon. Perhaps we're using the wrong word here."
John Fugelsang: "That's not so, baby...(laughs)... I think there's nothing wrong with the term."

Bill Maher: "So you think (it's sexual)?"
John Fugelsang: "Definitely, and I have no problem with the government stepping in. I grew up on Long Island and I pretty much had the crap kicked out of me by the Buttafuoco nation on a daily basis, OK? I would have loved to have the state step in and if you're sending your kids to a public school you have a right to expect the state to protect your kids while they're there."

On the lottories:
Bill Maher: "But they're really praying on the hopes and desperations of poor people."
John Fugelsang: "Kinda like the old time gospel hour."
(The Rev. maintained his cool...)

"We're teaching the poor how to stay poor, so it's good."

"When the government pretty much operates on quick-fix solutions to complex problems, why are we surprised when the poorest of that society looks for quick-fix solutions to their economic problems?"
