America Quotes
Today our nation has been taken over by special interest individuals and groups who are out of touch with what needs to be done to improve America's future. I find this very disturbing. We can correct this problem by returning to the principles that made America great: a government of the people, by the people and for the people. I will work for the people.

Aware Quotes
We were a little bit surprised at the context of the letter, where it speaks to FIFA not being aware of what was happening, and I am a little bit disappointed because the FIFA development officer came here sometime in September and visited the site and was quite pleased to the extent that at a press conference the morning before he departed, he explained to the nation via the media that he was quite pleased that everything was on target.

Apathy Quotes
When the people of a nation out of sincere ignorance, conscientious stupidity, and/or apathy cheer and support liars and murderers like Bush and Blair they are breeding contempt for the laws of the land. These people will find themselves, sooner rather than later, surrounded by incomprehensible evil wherever they go. They become more like fish in a barrel than people.

Attacking Quotes
The fact of the matter is we went after Iraq for oil. And the fact of the matter is that the United States has degraded our role as a great nation by attacking this nation that had no capacity to attack the United States and no intention of doing so, that didn't have anything to do with 9/11, didn't have weapons of mass destruction.

Across Quotes
There are many 'little Katrina' disasters across the nation where the poor are ignored and are left out of society. Society deems poverty a stigma but those trapped in poverty don't have choices. They cannot move out of the whirlpool of poor education, poor employment opportunities and prevalence of crime in their neighborhoods.
-
Abuse Quotes
When our leaders allow and even encourage abuse at the 'outer limits', America suffers. A nation that works to bring freedom and liberty to other parts of the world shouldn't stomach brutality and inhumanity within its ranks. This abuse of power was engineered and accepted at the highest levels of our government.
-
China Quotes
The reason why China forecasting has such a poor track record is that Westerners constantly invoke the model and experience of the West to explain China, and it is a false prophet. Until we start trying to understand China on its own terms, rather than as a Western-style nation in the making, we will continue to get it wrong.
-
Against Quotes
The persuadable voters are heavily inclined against the president, ... They're looking for someone to take this nation in a new direction....And I think Iraq is a perfect example: $200 billion being spent today in Iraq on -- over there when we need it over here to deal with the problems that we face here at home.
-
Basis Quotes
We Americans have the chance to become someday a nation in which all radical stocks and classes can exist in their own selfhoods, but meet on a basis of respect and equality and live together, socially, economically, and politically. We can become a dynamic equilibrium, a harmony of many different elements, in which the whole will be greater than all its parts and greater than any society the world has seen before. It can still happen.
-
Action Quotes
We are encouraged by the president's call for the renewal of the Ryan White CARE Act. For the second year in a row, the president has used his annual address to the nation as an opportunity to highlight the need to renew and to improve legislation that serves low income people living with HIV/AIDS in the United States. We must turn the president's calls into action and press lawmakers to immediately tackle this critical issue.
-
Broken Quotes
We seek information about confidential sources from reporters only when it really, really matters, ... What is broken about the way we are handling subpoenas to the media? ... I don't see anything in our work that justifies discarding 33 years of careful practice that has served the nation well.
-
Became Quotes
We're the wealthiest, most powerful nation in the world and here we have one of the most endangered populations of large mammals in the world right out our back door. And I think it would be a shame if 100 years from now, this population became extinct because we didn't give it our all.

Ability Quotes
While we continue working toward our mission of assisting Florida in its recovery from the six hurricanes that have impacted the state in the last year, we -- like the rest of the federal government and the American people -- are doing our best to help the nation respond to Katrina's unprecedented challenge. A well-staffed call center will strengthen FEMA's ability to respond quickly to the pressing needs of the millions of people affected by Katrina.
