We've Seen Their Kind Before. The Terrorists Are The Heirs To Fascism. They Have The Same Wield Of Power, The Same Disdain For The Individual, The Same Mad Global Ambitions.

And Also We Have To Make Sure That We Don't Repeat Old Mistakes; This Help Is Only Short Term.

And So To Answer Your Question, I'm Going To Win Because People Sense My Heart, Know My Sense Of Optimism And Know Where I Want To Lead The Country.

The Crew Of The Shuttle Columbia Did Not Return Safely To Earth; Yet We Can Pray That All Are Safely Home.

Wall Street Got Drunk And Now It's Got A Hangover. And The Question Is, How Long Will It Sober Up And Not Try To Do Those Fancy Financial Instruments?

I've Watched Politics For Years. Republicans Rarely Get Credit For The Good Things That Happen In The Economy During Their Watch. Democrats Always Get More Credit Than They Deserve. They Are Just Better At Political Discourse That We Are.

The Best Way To Encourage Economic Vitality And Growth Is To Let People Keep Their Own Money.when You Spend Your Own Money, Somebody's Got To Manufacture That Which You're Spending It On. You See, More Money In The Private Sector Circulating Makes It More Likely That Our Economy Will Grow. And, Incredibly Enough, Some Want To Take Away Part Of Those Tax Cuts. They've Been Reading The Wrong Textbook. You Don't Raise Somebody's Taxes In The Middle Of A Recession. You Trust People With Their Own Money. And, By The Way, That Money Isn't The Government's Money; It's The People's Money.

I... You Know, I... Look, After 9/11, I Vowed To Protect This Country.

We Are Dealing Here With Killers Who Have Made The Death Of Americans The Calling Of Their Lives.

Productive Life

After 9/11, We Had To Look At The World Differently. After 9/11, We Had To Recognize That When We Saw A Threat, We Must Take It Seriously Before It Comes To Hurt Us. In The Old Days We'd See A Threat, And We Could Deal With It If We Felt Like It Or Not. But 9/11 Changed It All.

My Relationship With God Through Christ Has Given Me Meaning And Direction. My Faith Has Made A Big Difference In My Personal Life, And My Public Life As Well. I Make Personal Decisions Every Day.

Some Will Carry Memories Of A Face And A Voice Gone Forever.

I'm Not Surprised That People Are Unsettled Because Of War. The Enemy Has Got A Powerful Tool, And That Is To Get On Your Tv Screen By Killing Innocent People.
