Famous quotations that never were

"About the capitalist states, it doesn't depend on you whether we, the Soviet Union, exist. If you don't like us don't accept our invitations, and don't invite us to come to see you. Whether you like it or not, history is on our side. We will bury you!" ~Senator Joseph McCarthy in a speech to Congress. He was promptly arrested on suspicion that he was a communist spy.

"Look, I'm not saying we can't win, but there's 22 million of them and only 6 million of us! If that's not enough, they have all the mining and manufacturing- guns and gold! Maybe we should rethink this!?!" - Anyone anywhere NEAR a secession vote, 1860-1861.

"You know, there's a chance- a chance- that if we do this, that is, bomb their fleet and invade the Philippines, they won't just roll over and sue for peace. Maybe we should reconsider this course of action." -Anyone who was in on the planning of the Japanese "Strike South" strategy.

"Yeah, George, about this script...yeah, I love the stuff with Luke and Leia being siblings, nice swerve there. I also like the redemption message there at the end, with Vader turning on the Emperor, good stuff, good stuff. One problem though, these Ewok things. Are you fucking serious!?! Teddy bears!?! Fuckin' walking teddy bears are gonna take down the Empire!?! George...seriously...do you have any idea how weak that makes the heroes look? Two and a half movies, Obi Wan gets killed and Luke gets his ass kicked by Vader.

"I am happy to serve my adopted homeland."

so said the newly appointed Secretary of State Alexander Romanov

Romanov's appointment shocked the international community, and angered the Soviet Union. The grandson of the last Czar of Russia, he first came to the United States in 1941 when pressure from the Soviet Union forced the English government to send the former royal family into a second exile. Romanov has long been seen as an expert in foreign affairs, but it remains to be seen how much this will inflame cold war tensions....

Heh, nice...

though on the Pearl Harbor one, I think Yamamoto counts as having said "maybe they won't just give up". "sleeping giant", all that?
