These quotes are amusing, but the list is decidedly right-leaning. I'd like to see a few quotes from Andrew Jackson, FDR, Kennedy, and even Clinton to even it out a bit. It's funny how Clinton's roomie and a convicted fellon (Liddy) both get quotes, but none of the great democratic luminaries do. Perhaps this list is a result of the Semmelweis Reflex/confirmation bias, only recognizing "facts" that adhere to one's worldview.
To quote Albert Einstein, "If the facts don't fit the theory, change the facts."
