Not too many funny lines in the movie, but I laughed at the kid who stuck his foot in his mouth in front of the Salafi terrorist;

"Him? Hah! He's a virgin, hasn't even had sex yet!"
"That's good. Fornication is a serious crime."
"... I'm a virgin too!"
"That's good as well."

Bob Barnes: I want you to take him from his hotel, drug him, put him in the front of a car, and run a truck into it at 50 mph.

Dean Whiting: In this town, you're innocent until you're investigated.

Bryan Woodman: Great. How much for my other kid?

Ha! That was the funniest line in the movie.

- I thought the speech the islamic instructor made was interesting: it went something like "the pain of modern life cannot be solved by capitalism, liberal societies have failed, the Koran is the only solution." I can see how someone in that situation can be drawn to this, especially since it was told so eloquently.

Danny Dalton: Corruption is government intrusion into market efficiencies in the form of regulations. That's Milton Friedman. He got a goddamn Nobel Prize. We have laws against it precisely so we can get away with it. Corruption is our protection. Corruption keeps us safe and warm. Corruption is why you and I are prancing around in here instead of fighting over scraps of meat out in the streets. Corruption is why we win.
