More quotes by Aaron McGruder
I wonder what it means when your grandson is more crotchety than you are.
Aaron McGruder
I think revolution is always a little bit possible. I think it won't look or sound anything like what we would expect. But I think revolution is very difficult, and I'm not optimistic for any kind of dramatic change.
Aaron McGruder
I don't want the news to be patriotic. I don't want to see flags on the lapels of the anchors. I don't want any of that.
Aaron McGruder
I just tell jokes, and I think a lot of people take it too seriously. It's not that I don't have things that I'm angry about in the world, and I think most decent human beings are upset about things, and even upset about things in their own country, but I'm not a particularly unhappy fellow.
Aaron McGruder
Fidel Castro just talked a long time, and he talked and he talked and he talked and he talked... and he talked during the meeting. I think it was about four hours. But I guess that's part of the Castro spirit.
Aaron McGruder
But I know that in Toronto and Vancouver there are all the comforts of America, and yet there's a difference in the people, and I had health care.
Aaron McGruder
That's not saying there's not a bunch of good Democrats. I'm sure there's a lot of people who still haven't figured that out yet or simply don't want to have that pessimistic of an outlook, but I think the Democratic Party is completely worthless.
Aaron McGruder
When the news is slow, or when there's just so many other responsibilities bearing down on me that I don't have the time to do it right, that's when it gets frustrating. As an artist, you just don't wanna put bad work out. So when you have to do it seven days a week, you're just gonna have some bad days and bad weeks and bad months and bad years.
Aaron McGruder
I think you should know that real-life white people are not all as funny as the ones on 'Seinfeld'.
Aaron McGruder
The American people have no control over what the military does. We have no say in American foreign policy.
Aaron McGruder
Fame is not your friend. It ain't necessarily your enemy. It is what it is.
Aaron McGruder
Don't get me wrong, it definitely ain't the Democratic Party either. They're so bad, I mean I'm actually starting to believe that John Kerry was just token resistance, that he literally was down with George W.Bush. It was just such a horrible, horrible, horrible thing to see, that campaign. So, you know, I don't know what's going on.
Aaron McGruder
I really get a little bit confused by all this angry angry angry talk when all I do is tell jokes and at least some people find it funny.
Aaron McGruder
It's difficult to overcome what you're getting beamed into your brain by the television every day. The worthlessness of journalism today is just making the country confused and bewildered and lost.
Aaron McGruder
We have to confront the very scary fact that the president is a moron. He's really dumb.
Aaron McGruder
Voting really doesn't mean anything. I wish I could say something different, but I think it's kind of a sham.
Aaron McGruder
Perhaps it's time to start examining countries that have made democracy work while still having some kind of the same relationship in covenant with their population. Perhaps we need to look at the Scandinavian countries, or Canada, or something else, but whatever we have now, I think we just have to acknowledge, ain't workin.
Aaron McGruder
At least when I was young, in high school: Eh, voting doesn't mean nothing. You don't really know that to be true, you just say it. Then you get older, and responsible, and you go, Oh heck, let me vote. And then you vote and you go away. I was actually right when I was 16.
Aaron McGruder
And I'm not so in love with making people mad that I want to live my life around it.
Aaron McGruder
One, I push my deadlines closer than anybody else, or let's say it this way: I'm really late.
