I think the most commonly claimed version of the quote is:

"Somoza may be a son of a bitch, but he's our son of a bitch."

but, apparently the quote has never been documented in either case, so
DS was right about that. Can you quote someone correctly or
incorrectly if they never actually said the thing? Perhaps there
should be a committee that determines it. :)
