Most of my town hall meetings had always been love fests, and some of my guys used to complain: 'I'd like for somebody to yell at you a bit.'

The president and others say that if we leave, it will just be chaos in Iraq. Well, right now when you come to Iraq, you can’t even drive from the airport to the Green Zone.

We need to get rid of the Federal Elections Commission. It’s a joke. It doesn’t enforce the law.

There’s a tendency on the part of Americans, all of us, to say, ‘Hey, the Cold War is over, the Soviet Union is gone, we don’t have to worry about these guys again.’ We always have to be worried about them, we always have to be concerned about them, and we have to be well-informed.

Health care for all Americans is the most pressing domestic issue today. It’s far past time for the President and Congress to deliver health care to everyone.

That’s what I like about you, senator, you’re kicking it old-school.

Instead of taking a very high-paying type of law job or something that I might be able to do, I have been a legislator. That’s what I do. I think it’s an honorable profession – if you’re honest and have integrity and work hard.

Health care is still the number-one issue out there. Someone who seizes it, I think, will do very well in an election. Let’s face it: Clinton’s two big issues were the middle class tax cut, which he dropped, wisely, at the time to help reduce the deficit, and health care. That’s what he ran on.

Jews know the Palestinians. And they know they’re not really different. And they know they are from the same background. And they know if they coordinated that they could be an economic success and a real basis for a rebirth in the Middle East.

The President’s pre-1776 mentality is hurting America and fracturing the foundation on which our country has stood for 230 years. The President can’t just bypass two branches of government, and obey only those laws he wants to obey.
