Oh, and One More Thing featuring actor Sir Ian McKellen and Rep. Barney Frank discussing marijuana.


On Dafur

"I think it's an important thing for whoever can bring attention to this...we're always slow to act at these. It wasn't like we were very quick in Rwanda. It wasn't like we were very quick in the Balkans, quite honestly. But the truth is, what we don't want to do is turn around ten years from now and say, 'What the hell were we thinking? Why weren't we there?'" – George Clooney


On Liberals and Conservatives

"But when you look at the list of liberals who are active in politics, if not running. Barbra Streisand, Sean Penn, Warren Beatty, Springsteen, Spielberg...And then you look at the conservatives, it's like Chuck Norris, Bo Derek and the Gatlin Brothers. I don't know if being liberal makes you more right, but it does seem like it makes you more talented." – Bill Maher


On Gas

"The problem isn't that the petrol gas prices are so high, but gas is running out. That's the news... everybody has an individual responsibility to that, including from the president down." – Ian McKellen

Motorist feeling the pinch



On Immigration

"That is really one of the great oxymorons of all time: a 'guest worker.' I mean, do you have someone say, 'Oh, welcome to my house; would you go clean the bathroom?'" – Rep. Barney Frank

"I can't speak for the Vice President, but I think he, like leaders, from Harry Truman to JFK, understand that until the nature of man changes or we get to the end of history, there are going to be people like the Taliban or Saddam who respect deterrence rather than dialogue. That doesn't mean that it's a pessimistic view at all because there is optimism from history that the more democracies we have, the less likely they are to attack each other. And we've had more democracies in the last 20 years than at any time in the history of civilization." – Victor Davis Hanson
