Howard Dean apparently said this with a straight face:

"If you think what’s going on in the Middle East today would be going on if the Democrats were in control, it wouldn't, because we would have worked day after day after day to make sure we didn't get where we are today. We would have had the moral authority that Bill Clinton had when he brought together the Northern Irish and the IRA, when he brought together the Israelis and the Palestinians.

Isn't seeing the words 'moral authority' and 'Bill Clinton' in the same sentence a little jarring? My speculation is that psychotropic drugs are responsible for his Israeli/Palestinian remark.
