Governor Palin leans far closer to 'spokesperson' than representative of the people.
Quote by -Adam McKay
George W. Bush was a silver spoon dolt with no record to speak of other than bankruptcy and selling tropical plants, and we let him sail into the White House, but Barack talks about religious fundamentalism and guns being prevalent in poor areas, and we roast him for weeks?
Quote by -Adam McKay
After thousands of hours of news coverage, we have learned that Hillary is a liar and Barack is a terrorist or something.
Quote by -Adam McKay
America is a country that prides itself on being able to identify a 'straight shooter' or 'the genuine article' when it comes to our leaders. As a nation, we can 'feel it in our gut' when someone is giving us a bum steer.
Quote by -Adam McKay
Obamacare is a private mandate that will drive billions to the insurance industry, much like the auto insurance mandate. Hardly socialism. In fact, it was a Republican plan to begin with.
Quote by -Adam McKay
With the derivatives market larger than ever, we need way more regulation of Wall Street, not less.
Quote by -Adam McKay
Voting for Romney after the train wreck of that was the eight years of W. Bush is like losing your pay check playing a rigged game of three-card monte and then playing the same game again a week later 'cause the cards are a different color.
Quote by -Adam McKay
Billions have been spent for one purpose and one purpose only: to obscure and distract from the fact that Mitt Romney is backing the identical agenda George W. Bush did.
Quote by -Adam McKay
Every time a congressman or pundit says its 'class warfare' to increase taxes on the wealthy, it's a massive lie.
Quote by -Adam McKay
Depending on what state you live in, you may only have right-wing talk radio and FOX or CBN with MSNBC three hundred channels down the dial.
Quote by -Adam McKay
The truth is, there's an information blockade in America, and it must be broken. In order to find crucial facts, numbers and outside perspectives, a person must spend an hour searching and cross-searching on the computer.
Quote by -Adam McKay
You know how in every heist movie they get past the security cameras that show the hallway leading to the diamonds by jamming the screens with a fake signal of everything looking safe and quiet? Usually a guard coughs so they don't notice the blip from switching to the bogus feed.
Quote by -Adam McKay
I can't exactly say why there's not much protest music to speak off. And I know there are acts out there still putting a message in their music.
Quote by -Adam McKay
Arnold Schwarzenegger cut teacher's salaries and parks and libraries rather than raise taxes for the many California millionaires and billionaires.
Quote by -Adam McKay
Pete Wilson deregulated energy as a pay out to Enron, and we blamed Gray Davis.
Quote by -Adam McKay
I was born in Colorado and grew up in Pennsylvania with family in Texas and Oklahoma.
Quote by -Adam McKay
I got the sense that Alabama is a place where people don't want handouts and don't much care for people talking out of the side of their mouth.
Quote by -Adam McKay
Benito Mussolini created the word 'fascism.' He defined it as 'the merging of the state and the corporation.' He also said a more accurate word would be 'corporatism.' This was the definition in Webster's up until 1987 when a corporation bought Webster's and changed it to exclude any mention of corporations.
Quote by -Adam McKay
The corporate right fires up the religious right against gay marriage and abortion and uses their votes to push their deregulation and tax cuts for the rich. It's an old trick. The House of Saud has the same arrangement with the Mullahs in Saudi Arabia.
Quote by -Adam McKay
Dick Cheney and Bush's rise to power were built on tons of money from corporations and a dulled press.
Quote by -Adam McKay
The stuff that's going on is just so over-the-top, with the banking crisis and destroying the Gulf of Mexico, and the outrage hasn't quite caught up with the people yet. But when it does, I think you're going to see really virulent anti-authoritarian kind of comedy coming out.
Quote by -Adam McKay
For my money, I don't think there's been a better comedy than 'Kung Fu Hustle' in a lot of years. That movie just knocked me over.
Quote by -Adam McKay
'The Real World' is the most predictable arc ever. They get on the show, they're all excited, we're gonna be best friends, then people start drinking and get hammered, and say stupid stuff, and that's pretty much it.
Quote by -Adam McKay
I was completely with the reality TV boom for a while. I really liked a lot of the reality TV, and the one that lost me was the ballroom dancing one they do, 'Dancing with the Stars.' That was the one where I watched it and I was perplexed. I thought it was really boring.
Quote by -Adam McKay
I hired Tina Fey for 'SNL,' which was certainly a good match. She took off right away there.
Quote by -Adam McKay
As far as what makes a viral video, then it's gotta be something that you've either never seen before, a fresh piece of comedy, or something that relates to something topical.
Quote by -Adam McKay
A lot of shorts spend too much time setting up the idea; sometimes they meander.
Quote by -Adam McKay
We, Will Ferrell and I, were approached by Sequoia, which is a big financing firm up in Palo Alto; they do a lot of Internet stuff, and they came to us and said they had an idea for a comedy site, and Will and I were sorta like, 'Yeah, we don't know. It's the Internet, we've seen it come and go.'
Quote by -Adam McKay
Things I used to get in trouble for writing at 'SNL,' suddenly other people like it.
Quote by -Adam McKay
I am actually talking about possibly adapting 'The Boys,' by Garth Ennis, which would not be a comedy, but an action movie with comedy elements to it.
Quote by -Adam McKay
You can't really do a big character in an action film; you're already suspending your disbelief in the action, then to suspend your disbelief in the character is too much.
Quote by -Adam McKay
Nowadays, the truth is, I think a lot of the newer generation of action stars usually are pretty self-deprecating and cool. I mean, Dwayne Johnson is a great example.
Quote by -Adam McKay
In the past, in the '60s and '70s, genres were much more segmented. You had action guys who were deadly serious about it, and I think you had comics that were comics.
Quote by -Adam McKay
You think of movies like 'Midnight Run' and '48 Hours', those are great movies, especially 'Midnight Run.'
Quote by -Adam McKay
I think there's a tendency to think geeks and nerds are just sweet guys that were picked on, but that hasn't been my experience. I'm certainly not like that, in a lot of ways.
Quote by -Adam McKay
If you aim for parody right off the bat and it misses, no offense to the filmmakers, but it is Meet the Spartans.
Quote by -Adam McKay
I always thought George Bush was more oblivious than mean, but oblivious can quickly go to mean.
